Description
Overview:
This Genuine Stihl pushrod is a precision valvetrain component for Stihl backpack blowers, designed to transmit motion between the cam and rocker/valve assembly so the engine opens and closes its valves at the correct time. Manufactured from durable steel for long service life, it helps maintain smooth running, reliable starting and full power output. It is a direct replacement for OEM No. 4283 038 2600 and is suitable for heavy, regular use. Ideal for routine servicing or repairs, it restores correct valve operation when the original rod is worn or bent. Built to Stihl specifications, it delivers the fit and function needed in high-performance blowers such as the BR 800 and BR 800 C-E used by landscapers, grounds teams and demanding domestic users.
Key Features:
- Genuine Stihl part for assured fit and compatibility (OEM 4283 038 2600)
- Robust steel construction for wear resistance and stability under heat
- Precision-made to maintain accurate valve timing and smooth engine operation
- Direct replacement: no modifications required to standard engines
- Helps restore starting, power, and idle quality when the old rod is damaged
- Designed for the Stihl 4-MIX valvetrain used in BR 800 series blowers
- Suitable for preventative maintenance as well as corrective repair
- Consistent length and straightness to prevent premature rocker and valve wear
- Supports long service intervals when used with correct valve clearance settings
Typical Applications:

Commonly fitted to resolve issues caused by a bent or worn pushrod, such as poor compression, misfires, loss of power, or abnormal valvetrain noise. Suitable for workshop and onsite maintenance to minimise downtime.
