12 Inch Pole Saw Chain fits Stihl 1/4"LP Pitch .043" Gauge 64 Drive Links

Nice bar and chain set. Great cutting and running chain, lots of bite.

I bought these to replace my Greenworks 48V (24V x 2) Cordless 14-inch Brushless Chainsaw, with (2) 4Ah USB Batteries (Model 2017902) OEM chain that it came with. I compared the 3/8" LP Pitch and .043" Gauge to match and that I needed the 14" size. When I first installed the new chain, I first had to tighten the screw to move it to be tight on the bar. I then put the guard over it and screwed it down to use it. At first it was not working well at all, not wanting to go in and I found out that chains have to go on one way (even though they will go on backwards on the bar). The front way is the small point and then the bigger more flat arrowed part behind it, in the repeating pattern. This is likely obvious to people who have used a chainsaw before, but I had used the one I bought one a few times and never changed the chain. I figured I would share this all for anyone else who has never had to replace a chain and if they also have a electric chainsaw similar to mine, so when you get a new chain, you know you have to match the size, but also the LT and Gauge, to what your model came with. In my case I found my model needed the 3/8" LP pitch and the .043 Gauge and is 14" long. But, nothing in the bags that came that I saw, said blade can only go on one way, but will fit both. So if you get this new and it all fits and spins fine, but when you try to saw it does not seem to go into the logs or if you push a little the wood smokes, but it did not when you had your OEM chain on. This may be the problem, that you have the chain on backwards. Also, I tried to flip it 180 to get it on right, but did not pay attention to the pattern direction on the chain. Somehow I must have put it back on the wrong way, as it again did not cut. I then took the chain off again, and made sure the small part and then the bigger flat part on the chain pattern was the way I had it (not the way before). Then when I tried it, it cut the wood like butter. I barely touched it and it cut half way into the log. I also used oil, I bought some here on Amazon. I don't think my electric chainsaw came with oil, or if it did, I misplaced it. The tank where the oil goes, was empty, or I had ran it dry. So the adding oil to the electric saw likely also made the new chain work great. These are all things that would likely be stupid mistakes to someone who uses a chainsaw a lot, but to someone who had rarely used one, and no one showed me how to do any of this, these are all things I learned. I have only used it for when large branches fall in storms, I need to but the big part up into smaller parts.

Nice and sharp, great price. Size fits my dad’s Stihl farm boss with 18” blade. Time will tell how they hold an edge.

For inexpensive noname chainsaw chain loops, these have done very well. Be aware when I put first one on new out of package, it felt dull. Worked fine after I sharpened it. I was worried how long it would hold an edge. It did pretty well. Its not like premium chain, but if you sharpen your chains yourself, its economical. The premium chain has gotten crazy price. I used it on 2 battery Milwaukee saw. No its not as nice as the chain that came with the saw, but I priced them and Milwaukee wants $40+ per loop. When sharp this cuts as well as the OEM chain. No difference in how long the batteries in saw lasted before recharge. Its saw chain, if you use a chainsaw, likely you have experience changing out chains. One chain is as easy as the next. Its the correct size, pitch, profile ect for my saw. I am being prompted to comment on weight, well its saw chain, its pretty much the same weight as original. Look it comes down to economics, properly sharpened this is far more economical than OEM, though you will have to sharpen it more often. Thats what it boils down to. If you hire your chains sharpened then you might want to consider better chain that stays sharp longer. CAuse frankly the price per loop of this chain brand new is about what you would pay shop to sharpen one loop of chain. Just remember I had to sharpen it new out of package before it cut well, so you cant just buy this to avoid hiring your chain sharpened.

Perfect fit

The chains arrived very sharp. The bar seems compatible in every way with the Stihl saw head. I am very impressed with the quality. The chain is supposedly an anti-kickback style, but it seems to cut as aggressively as a semi chisel or full chisel.

Fit nicely. Cut nicely. My longevity is not much as I’m cutting telephone poles in dirt and stones surrounds. Does the job though.

Worked great on my saw, easy to put on my saw pretty good size chips cut until I hit my pavement and the chain link fence that was grown into the tree I was cutting up that got blown over in a storm earlier this year.

Fácil de instalar

For 12$ a chain they cut like Pamela running in the beach

Thinner than originals but does the job.

Chain teeth are NARROW compared to what I would expect for a .063 chain. .... less wood will be removed by each tooth. Cutting tooth is similar to that on my Stihl pole saw chain. Photo shows the new chain along side the used chain it will be replacing.

Muy util pero se quemo muy rapido, cumplio el año y se murio
