STIHL WB01 760 2005 OEM Arbor / Spindle Assembly
The STIHL WB01 760 2005 Arbor Assembly is a genuine OEM STIHL replacement mower deck arbor / spindle assembly for select STIHL RZ zero-turn mower decks. This part is listed as ARBOR ASSEMBLY 52 FAB and is used in the Mower Deck - Housing, Arbor & Blade section for compatible STIHL RZ mower deck applications.
The arbor assembly, also commonly called a spindle assembly, supports the mower blade and allows it to rotate smoothly during mowing. A worn or damaged arbor can cause vibration, bearing noise, blade wobble, poor cut quality, and premature wear to belts, blades, pulleys, and deck components.
Always verify your full STIHL mower model, deck size, original arbor or spindle part number, blade position, mounting style, pulley setup, and parts diagram before ordering. Arbor and spindle fitment can vary by mower model, deck size, and deck configuration.
