Product Overview

A missing or broken cover lock lets the filter cover loosen, rattle, or fail to seal against sawdust. This small fastener matters because the cover must remain seated while the saw is running.

This is the cover-lock piece, not the air filter or complete housing. Compare its shape and retention method with the original part.

  • Small direct service part for listed Stihl saw families
  • Useful when the original latch is lost, cracked, or stripped
