Description
Overview:
This genuine Stihl torsion spring is a metal coiled spring that stores rotational force to return or hold mower mechanisms under tension. Built from durable steel for repeated flexing, it helps keep controls and linkages operating smoothly on Stihl ride-on mowers, including RT 4082.0 and RT 4082.1. Identified by OEM No. 6170 703 4900, it is specified for a range of Stihl RT, MT and MR models. Replacing a fatigued or deformed spring restores correct preload, improves consistency of movement, and reduces strain on connected parts. It is a straightforward like-for-like replacement for the original spring, supporting reliable performance during regular mowing and heavier seasonal work.
Key Features:
- Genuine Stihl part for assured fit and performance
- Steel construction for strength, resilience and long service life
- Provides stable torsional tension to mower linkages and mechanisms
- Helps restore smooth, repeatable operation after spring fatigue
- Matches OEM No. 6170 703 4900 for accurate identification
- Suitable for routine maintenance or preventative replacement
- Simple to swap like-for-like with the original component
- Compatible across a wide range of Stihl ride-on mower models
Typical Applications:
Used where rotational spring force is required on ride-on mowers, such as control linkages, engagement mechanisms, latches, or return actions. Ideal for replacing worn or weakened springs to restore correct tension, improve control feel, and maintain reliable operation through regular use in domestic, commercial, or grounds-care settings.
Also known as:
Torsion coil, torsional return spring, counterbalance spring, hinge spring, mower return spring (torsion type), rotational spring.
