PITCH: 3/8"
The pitch of chainsaw chain is the average distance between its drive links, crucial for ensuring compatibility with the chainsaw’s bar and sprocket. It's measured by taking the distance between three consecutive rivets, divided by two. Using a chain with the correct pitch is essential for optimal cutting performance and safety, as it ensures the chain matches the chainsaw’s specifications perfectly.

BAR LENGTH: 14"
The bar length of a chainsaw is measured from the front of the saw to the tip of the bar and determines the maximum size of wood it can cut. Choosing the correct bar length is crucial for efficient and safe chainsaw operation.

DRIVE LINKS: 50 GAUGE: .043"
The drive link and gauge of a chainsaw are critical for chain compatibility and performance. The drive link is the part of the chain that fits into the chainsaw's guide bar, and its thickness is measured by the gauge. Correct drive link and gauge sizing ensures the chain fits securely and operates smoothly, enhancing cutting efficiency and safety.
