Description
Overview:
This torsion spring is a genuine Stihl OEM spare for selected handheld leaf blowers, designed to restore correct tension in moving parts for smooth, reliable operation. Made from durable steel with a resilient finish, it is engineered to store and release rotational force, helping levers and linkages return to their resting position. It is specifically matched to Stihl BG72 and BG75 models, so the fit and performance meet factory standards. The spring helps maintain consistent control response and reduces the risk of sticking or sluggish mechanisms that can occur as original springs fatigue over time. Supplied under Manufacturer Part Number (MPN) 0000 998 0400, it offers a straightforward replacement when the original part is worn, bent, or broken, keeping your blower working as intended.
