Description
4244 708 6700 STIHL Tapered Screen – Genuine OEM Blower Tube Airflow Insert
The STIHL Tapered Screen (4244 708 6700) is a genuine OEM airflow control component designed for select STIHL mistblowers, including the SR 430 and SR 450 models. This tapered screen is installed within the pleated hose and blower tube assembly to help regulate airflow direction, reduce debris entry, and maintain consistent air delivery during spraying operations.
Screens are important protective and performance parts within the airflow system. Over time, tapered screens may become clogged with debris, bent, cracked, or damaged due to chemical residue buildup, heavy use, or impact from foreign material. A damaged or blocked screen can restrict airflow, reduce mistblower efficiency, and affect spray performance.
Replacing the screen with the correct genuine STIHL OEM part restores proper airflow stability, tube protection, and reliable operating performance without replacing the complete blower tube assembly.
Manufactured to STIHL factory specifications, this OEM tapered screen ensures precise fitment, durable construction, and long-term performance under demanding commercial conditions.
