The Stihl ones are worse. Flared ends in plastic that fall out like on 201s, no thanks. At least the Husky ones have the little "cage" that clips into the clutch cover.

The stihl ones are sweet. I wish there was an aftermarket mod one for the MS200T as watching the bloody nut drop out the tree sucks.

Agree, not had a lot to do with the 201 but the 261s and 500is seem sweet enough 😁

If you still have one nut take it to the hardware store with you, find a bolt to fit it, then get a few nuts that fit that bolt for spares.

Hi, I have a MS 310 Sthil, I just replaced the bar studs (oem) and all I have are generic brand nuts, would it be OK to use them or should I get some oem nuts

Ordinary nuts will do the job but any flange nuts spread the load better.
