Restore rigid, positive power delivery and original factory torque to your mid-range chainsaw with the genuine OEM STIHL .325" 7-Tooth Spur Sprocket Assembly. Precision-manufactured under factory part number 1123 640 2074, this structural clutch drum shell is an exact drop-in replacement component engineered for legacy 021, 023, and 025 workhorses, as well as modern MS 210 and MS 250 platforms—including specialized C-BE quick-tensioning models. Swapping out a grooved or worn drive drum remedies erratic clutch slipping, stops immediate chain stall under load, and optimizes cutting throughput.
The core advantage of this original equipment manufacturer layout lies in its simple, rugged single-piece architecture. The 7-tooth spur configuration is precision-machined directly onto the exterior of the case-hardened alloy drum shell, ensuring perfectly rigid structural integrity and direct mechanical link-to-clutch contact. This standard factory setup provides excellent balanced engine leverage, preventing the engine from bogging down in demanding hardwoods while stabilizing linear chain delivery throughout the cut profile.
True OEM Engineering vs. Soft Aftermarket Metal: Chainsaw drive sprockets function under extreme frictional heat and high centrifugal stress. Low-grade aftermarket drums frequently suffer from out-of-round concentricity, causing catastrophic crankshaft vibration, rapid wear on internal clutch shoes, and structural micro-cracks along the teeth. This genuine STIHL spur sprocket features precision-bored interior walls to guarantee exact alignment with your needle cage bearing, ensuring a long operational life cycle and fluid oil pump engagement.
Configuration & Application Profile: Designed exclusively for STIHL 1123-series powerheads configured with a .325" pitch guide bar and chain loop assembly. This drum will not accept 3/8" Standard or 3/8" Picco (Low Profile) chain configurations. Packaged as a single, fully integrated spur sprocket and clutch drum shell unit.
