I got a bunch of scale pics for bars. I'll see if I can't get them loaded into this thread at some point.
And our scales differ, I got different weight for some of our common bars like the TechLite and standard rep.nose husky.

So whats one of those fancy stihl light 32" bars going to rack me ?

sugi haras are very nice and very well made. Japanese steel is not joke. not much of a weight savings compared to a stihl es light but still lighter then an es bar.

the ones i have i like a lot. its up there with stihl es and tsumura bars.

I have a question for you guys who are running these high end bars in the field...Do the tips hold up? I know they are replaceable but do they last a little longer then the std bars?

 

[TK]

And actually to extend Kevin's question - Are the tips readily available and reasonably priced?

both sugi hara and tsumura tips are under 20 bucks. you can pick up a tsumura tips from any tilton equipment dealer including a jonsered dealer.

sugi hara tips are available on ebay from the us distributor or a dealer who sells those bars.

as for how long they last, i havent had them long enough but from other users who use them day in and out seems to swear by the tsumura bars.

not too long ago i pick up 4 3/8 tsumura tips for under 10 each, so replacements are very easy to get imho if you choose to run these bars.

Definitely a good price on tips! And tsumura tips can be had at a jonny dealer? Thought that was a Total bar thing? Or are those bars/tips interchangeable? Jonsered is on my list of things to acquire lol just need some time to get there.

man let me know when your a red husky dealer hehehe.

but yes. tsumura makes total pro/jonsered pro bars (rebadged tsumura rotary tip bars). tips are all interchangeable log as you match gauge.

Likely true + with shorter bars, but the longer ones aren't equally light compared to other lighweight bars, as the percentage the cutouts represent is lesser.

 

[SawTroll]

ill start with 20in.

.....

3/8 .050 d009 large husky mount

.....
.

That looks like one of the GB ones, not a PowerMatch.
