Description
Overview:
The Torsion Spring for Stihl 045 and 030 is a genuine Stihl OEM component designed to restore correct tension in key mechanisms on your chainsaw. Manufactured from durable spring steel, the coiled design with twin legs delivers consistent rotational force, helping controls and moving parts return to position smoothly and reliably. Suitable for a range of classic and pro-grade Stihl saws, it helps maintain safe, predictable operation under regular use. Its precise fitment and correct wire gauge minimise wear on mating parts and reduce the chance of premature failure. Supplied as Stihl part number 0000 998 1205, it is an ideal replacement when the original spring has weakened, deformed, or broken, ensuring your machine runs as intended.

- Genuine Stihl part for assured fit and compatibility (MPN: 0000 998 1205)
- Robust spring-steel construction for long service life
- Provides stable torsional tension for smooth, repeatable operation
- Helps maintain control response and return-to-rest positions
- Engineered to handle regular start-stop and trigger cycles
- Clean, accurate coil geometry to reduce binding and wear
- Suitable for professional and DIY maintenance of older and current models

Typical Applications:
Used in chainsaws to provide return force and controlled movement in mechanisms that rotate around a pivot, helping levers, latches, and controls return to position. Ideal when existing springs have lost tension, become bent, or snapped, to keep the saw operating safely and predictably during everyday cutting, pruning, and maintenance tasks.
Also known as:
Torsion coil spring, twist spring, return spring, rotational spring, coiled leg spring. Commonly referred to as a control return spring in assemblies where a lever or handle needs a controlled restoring force after actuation.
