Parts for Craftsman 358348231: Cylinder Shield / Crankcase Parts

Anyone who has used a chainsaw knows how loud they are. This is because their engines are repeatedly producing small explosions of fuel and air. Manufacturers know just how loud this can be, so to help subdue their appliances roars, they usually add a muffler to their engines. This genuine OEM replacement chainsaw muffler collects most of the harmful elements that get expelled from the engine and slowly releases the remaining gas in a quieter, gentler way. Unfortunately, mufflers are often positioned in a way that makes them susceptible to damage. Bumps and knocks can dent the muffler, causing it not to work as effectively. If this happens, the chainsaw will perform noticeably louder. Replacing the muffler requires a screwdriver and socket wrench to access the exhaust system. Be sure not to loose any of the small parts, such as washers and screws, that hold the assembly in place. This part is compatible with both Craftsman and Husqvarna appliances and comes sourced from the original manufacturer. This part does not include any additional hardware.

Secures the muffler cover to the muffler on chainsaws and small engines. Replace if screw is stripped, missing, or no longer holds the cover securely.

Seals the connection between engine and muffler to prevent air leaks and reduce noise. Replace if damaged, missing, or causing loud operation. Verify fit with your chainsaw model number before ordering.

This ball bearing and seal are used in a range of chainsaw models. It acts as part of the blade assembly and is designed to both lessen friction and stabilize moving parts. This bearing is also set within a race and the entire race/bearing/seal assembly must be replaced at the same time. The bearing is encased with a rubber seal, which prevents fuel leakage and keeps the engine working smoothly. It does not impede the bearing as it turns. Ball bearings are placed in high contact areas and wear down due to friction. They need to be regularly replaced for optimal performance. If the engine shows difficulty while running, or is louder than usual, the seal or bearing may have worn down. This OEM replacement part is sourced from the manufacturer and works with certain models of Poulan small engines, including the Poulan/Poulan Pro 2900, and Husqvarna chainsaws. This part replaces parts 530019259 and 530047827, both of which are obsolete.

Replacement piston for chainsaw engines. Installs inside the cylinder to create compression. Needed when original piston is scored, cracked, or worn.

Seals engine compartment on gas chainsaws to prevent debris and moisture intrusion. Replace if cracked, brittle, or causing leaks. Verify fit with your model.

This is a fuel pickup filter that sits inside the fuel tank of a chainsaw or small engine. It screens debris and contaminants from the fuel before it reaches the carburetor, ensuring clean fuel delivery. Replace this filter if the engine is running rough, stalling, losing power, or if the filter is visibly clogged or deteriorated.
