Description
Overview:
This Genuine Stihl torsion spring (part no. 0000 998 0612) is an OEM replacement made from high‐quality spring steel. It maintains controlled rotational tension on small mechanisms, helping levers and triggers return to position and keeping linkages working smoothly. Designed for Stihl handheld tools such as trimmers, brushcutters, hedge trimmers, blowers, pole pruners, KombiSystem attachments and MultiSystem tools, it ensures consistent operation under repeated use. Precisely engineered for a correct fit on the intended assemblies, it restores reliable function when the original spring has weakened or failed. Ideal for routine maintenance on popular models including FS 38 and FS 45, it helps reduce slack, improve responsiveness and extend the service life of connected components without compromising the tool's balance or performance.
Key Features:
- Genuine Stihl OEM part for assured fit and function
- Hardened spring steel for resilience and long service life
- Maintains correct torsional tension for smooth, repeatable action
- Helps restore trigger, lever and linkage return after wear
- Consistent performance under vibration and frequent cycling
- Compact, lightweight form matches original specification
- Straightforward like‐for‐like replacement to minimise downtime
- Compatible across a wide range of Stihl handheld tools
Typical Applications:
Used in control and linkage points where rotational return is needed, such as throttles, chokes, guards, and mechanism pivots on Stihl trimmers, brushcutters, hedge trimmers, pole pruners, blowers, KombiSystem and MultiSystem tools. Replacing a fatigued spring restores crisp return action, improves control feel, and prevents sticking or incomplete engagement during trimming, cutting, pruning, edging and general grounds maintenance.
Also known as:
Torsional spring, coil torsion spring, return spring, torsion return spring, rotary tension spring, trigger/lever spring for small mechanisms in outdoor power equipment.
