STIHL Stop buffer 11417915908 / 1141 791 5908

Overview:
The Stop Buffer for Stihl MS 261 and MS 261 C chainsaws is a Genuine Stihl part designed to restore and maintain the anti-vibration system. Manufactured from a tough rubber elastomer with a bonded metal sleeve, it sits between the engine unit and the handle/AV assemblies to absorb shock and reduce vibration transmitted to the operator. This helps keep the saw comfortable to use, reduces fatigue, and protects surrounding components from excessive movement. The buffer is a direct-fit replacement for worn or perished mounts and is suitable for routine maintenance or repairs on MS 261-series machines used in forestry, arborist work, landscaping, and firewood cutting. Built to original specifications for reliable fit and function.
