1/4’’ .050’’ SAW CHAIN

SAW CHAIN IDENTIFICATION

The pitch and gauge are key compatibility components of the chain saw chain.

*Pitch is the average distance between two rivets on the saw chain. Its value (1/4", .325", 3/8" or .404") is commonly displayed on the guide bar.

*Gauge is the thickness of the drive links, and it is important to know this in order to make the chainsaw chain fit correctly into the guide bar. The gauge (.043", .050", .058", or .063") is, like the pitch, probably displayed on the guide bar.

*Length is determined by the pitch and the number of drive links. This information is not typically printed on the bar or anywhere else on the product. Therefore, it's necessary to count the links on the old chainsaw chain when determining the length.

Semi-chisel cutter

*Precision, heat-treated semi-chisel chain cuts smoothly with a higher tolerance for debris.

*Semi-chisel cutters provide easy maintenance and good stay-sharp properties. This cutter profile is more forgiving regarding filing angles and less sensitive to dirt than full chisel cutters. Suitable for all chainsaw users.

Full chisel cutter

*The sharp corner of the full chisel cutters split wood fibers easily and provides the fastest, most efficient cutting in clean softwood.

*Full chisel cutters offer quick and precise cuts.

There are three main types: standard, semi-skip, and skip. Each type has its own unique application and benefits. 

Why choose Semi-skip tooth or Skip tooth chain?

*Promote efficient chip flow.

*Smoother cutting than standard chain.

*Fewer cutters to sharpen makes sharpening faster and easier.

*Fewer cutters require less power to operate.

*Reduce the pressure on the power head when using a long bar.
