Description
Overview:
The Thrust Plate is a genuine Stihl spare designed for the cutter head of long‐reach hedgetrimmers. Manufactured from durable steel and finished to tight tolerances, it controls axial movement in the blade drive and keeps the mechanism correctly aligned. This helps the gearbox transmit motion smoothly to the blades and prevents binding, chatter and uneven wear. Supplied as a direct replacement for OEM No. 4859 642 4800, it suits routine maintenance or repair of Stihl HLA series machines, including HLA65 and HLA85. Replacing a worn thrust plate restores clean cutting performance, reduces vibration, and protects associated parts such as sliders, gears and bearings. As a Genuine Stihl part, it offers assured fit and consistent performance across compatible models used by professionals and home users.
