The Husqvarna 506255906 Tank Cap Assembly is a genuine OEM component designed for K1270R, K950, K960, and K760 power cutters. As a direct-from-Husqvarna replacement, this assembly matches the original part exactly — ensuring a secure seal and correct fit without the guesswork. It is compatible across several of Husqvarna's professional-grade power cutter models, making it a straightforward solution when the original cap is lost, damaged, or no longer sealing properly. DHS Equipment supplies this part to help keep your equipment running at full capability.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Seal Integrity — Manufactured to Husqvarna's original specifications, this cap assembly delivers the correct thread engagement and sealing pressure needed to contain fuel safely under operating conditions.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — Engineered to thread directly onto the tank filler neck of compatible power cutters, matching the original mounting interface with no modification to the machine.
- Broad Power Cutter Compatibility — Fits the K1270R, K950, K960, and K760 power cutters. Cross-reference part number 506255906 against your parts diagram to confirm the correct application before ordering.
- Fuel System Protection — A properly seating tank cap prevents fuel spillage, contamination, and vapor loss — all of which directly affect safe operation and engine performance on the cut.
- Fuel Safety Compliance — On handheld power cutters operating in demanding construction environments, a correctly functioning tank cap is essential to preventing fuel leaks that pose a fire risk to the operator and surrounding crew.
The tank cap assembly seals the fuel filler opening on the power cutter, preventing fuel from spilling during transport, startup, and operation. A secure, properly threaded cap also keeps debris and moisture out of the fuel system, which protects the carburetor and engine internals from contamination. When the cap is cracked, cross-threaded, or missing its sealing gasket, fuel can leak or evaporate — leading to rough running, hard starting, and a genuine fire hazard on the worksite.
