Description
Overview:
This genuine Stihl thrust washer (OEM part no. 1120 642 8700) is a precision steel component used to control axial movement and reduce friction between rotating parts in Stihl chainsaws. It helps maintain correct spacing and smooth rotation within assemblies that experience end load, typically in the clutch or drive system, supporting reliable operation over time. Built from durable steel with a flat, ring-shaped profile, it resists wear under load and frequent use. Designed for Stihl chainsaws, it offers assured fit and performance on models such as 012 and 009. If you are refurbishing or maintaining your saw, replacing a worn thrust washer helps restore smooth running, protects adjoining parts, and supports consistent cutting performance.
