Key Features
- OEM-Grade Tooth Geometry — Manufactured to Husqvarna's exact gear tooth profile and hardness specifications, ensuring proper mesh and load transfer within the drivetrain.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to the same dimensions as the original, this gear wheel seats and engages correctly without modification to surrounding components.
- Broad Power Cutter Compatibility — Fits K970, K7000, K3600, and K960 power cutters, covering multiple models across Husqvarna's professional-grade cutting lineup.
- Sustained Power Transmission — A correctly functioning gear wheel delivers consistent torque to the blade drive system; a worn or damaged gear causes slipping, vibration, and loss of cutting power.
- Genuine Husqvarna Construction Part — Carries the full OEM designation, so the replacement matches the original part's material grade and service life expectations.
The Gear Wheel is a core drivetrain component within Husqvarna power cutters, responsible for transmitting rotational force from the engine through the drive system to the cutting blade. It works in mesh with adjacent gears and drive elements to maintain the correct speed and torque ratio during cutting. When this component wears or fails, operators typically notice increased vibration, inconsistent blade speed, or a complete loss of drive — all of which compromise cut quality and safe machine operation.
