Piston Ring 44mm x 1.5mm for Husqvarna 445 445e 450 Chainsaw 544 08 87-01 1 Ring

Piston ring for Husqvarna 445, 445e and 450 chainsaws — 44mm x 1.5mm.

Rings wear out long before the piston does. A fresh ring restores lost compression and brings a tired saw back to life, at a fraction of the cost of a full top end rebuild.

This is the same ring supplied in our 44mm piston and cylinder kit (QG45044), available here on its own.

Specifications:

Spec	Detail
Diameter	44mm
Thickness	1.5mm
Quantity	1 ring
Replaces OEM	544 08 87-01
Type	Aftermarket replacement part

Suits Husqvarna:

450 - 450e as standard

Note for 445 and 445e owners: these saws leave the factory with a 42mm bore. This ring suits them only if the saw has been fitted with a 44mm cylinder and piston, which is a popular upgrade. Measure across the top of your piston before ordering if you are not sure.

If your saw is not listed, get in touch before ordering and we will check it for you.

What you get:

1x piston ring

Piston, gudgeon pin and circlips are not included. For a full top end, see our 44mm piston and cylinder assembly kit.

Fitting tip:

Two-stroke rings sit over a locating pin in the piston groove that stops the ring rotating into a port. Make sure the ring gap seats either side of that pin before sliding the piston into the cylinder — forcing it in misaligned will break the ring.
