3/8 Low Profile Chain

[Majorpayne]

What is the best cutting 3/8 lp chain? Does Stihl have a new 3/8 lp chain?

 

[WoodChuck'r]

Stihl is my favorite of any chain.


Not to my knowledge but Cale will know for sure.....

Stihl make a low profile chisel. I think it's 63 PS3. It has the double hump raker but that can be taken care of. You can square file it too:wink:

PS3 is the newest right now. But PS will soon be for sale I hope. :smoking:

You hit the rakers once with the grinder and you'll never know the difference.

I'll be picking up a pair of 63 PS3 chains tomorrow from "Choppin' Bill".
I'll let you know what I think of them.

Ive been using that stihl chisel on a ms200T and a 2139 ....it works real nice ...just have to keep it out of the dirt !!!!:bananapirate:

Shouldn't be much dirt up in a tree!

 

[jrepairsk70e]

thats where it excels ....but sooner or later ya gotta come back to earth and its dirty reality !!!!:cry2:

Yeah PS is supposed to be the new stuff, Stihl reckons it's up to 20% faster than .325 (26RS)

 

[mdavlee]

From what I've seen so far that PS3 is some good stuff.

Well Folks,

As promised, I picked up the 63 PS3 today and it is awesome!
I put it on my Dolmar 3410 and that thing was unbelieveable. Smooth, fast, big huge chips, what more could a guy ask for???

I am normally an Oregon chain guy but until they come out with something to compete with this, I'll be getting 63 PS3 for my "mighty mouse" saws!

I went by my dealer today and they don't have ps3. That sucks.

 

[Majorpayne]

I went to the local Stihl dealer who is listed as an Elite dealer and called another Elite dealer and neither have ps3 chain. Do dealers order what the distributor tells them to order? They both push pm chain in 3/8 low profile.

 

[TK]

I don't stock ps3. I'd like to buy one someday though. Try bestbuy they usually have it.

 

[rms61moparman]

I can pick one up for you at my dealer if I ever get another Saturday off.
What drive link count are you needing?
I'd like to see about pricing a roll of this stuff.

Thanks. I will ask my dealer if they can order me a loop on their stock order so I don't have to pay freight. If not, I will let you know.
