Questions & Answers

Are there other file sizes that can be used for sharpening chains of different sizes?

Chains must be a certain size to be used with them. Among the three things I bought For an , use a 3/16 inch. The Stihl 260 pitch is 325 pt The 13/64 size for a 3/8 pitch Stihl 441C should be used Buy the right linkage for your chain. For example, to fit a Makita electric 4030A, you'll need a 5/32 and a 3/8 pitch low profile. In my opinion, these are the best guides I've ever used. Because the chains don't need to be professionally sharpened any longer, the cost of the guides is quickly offset. The results from using other guides have always been less than satisfying for me over the years. In order for the files to be cut, they need to be put in the guide correctly Directions will show you how to do

Is it important to measure the chain gauge?

Make sure you get the correct size sharpener with the associated sized files based on the size of your chain. There is nothing I like better than this.

Do you think this will Does 325 come in low profile? The directions say to use a 3/16-inch file, so I am unsure whether it will work with the low-proil ?

The one you see here is for you. The chainsaw chain that we used has a 325-pitch pitch.
*br>Comes fully assembled with files, pouch, and accompanying Using the 3/16" File Guide will sharpen your files. The chainsaw chain that we used has a 325-pitch pitch.

This looks like the correct replacement for the 3/16 husky. My husky takes a 3/16 file. Is this the right one?

In brief, yes. Your chain takes a 3/16" file, so it must be a. The chain has a pitch of 325. You are viewing the file guide The pitch chains have 325 links.

I love it
5/5

For those who sharpen their chainsaws by hand, this is the best device I have found. I think it is better than the other methods and beats them all The three pitches I have are very different, so I had to get three- There are five different sizes 5/32, 3/16, When I was paying $7/chain to have them sharpened in a shop, I became lazy up until I bought these. The results I'd get by hand when I'd do them previously would be mediocre. There was a problem where the shop's cutters (blue) would overheat and take away too much material. The cutters will still be sticky from the cat's claws left behind by this device. Additionally, there is a bar that acts as a support along with the cutter and depth gauge files, enabling the device to operate effectively during In order to calculate the proper angle to file, users need only align the gauge marks with the bar. A vise or another method will be needed to hold your chainsaw while it is being filed. YouTube has videos that you should check out. If you're interested in purchasing, I recommend you do so. The last time I brought my chains into the shop, they didn't need to be cleaned.

rare product made by Pferd, an organization that has been around since 1796 and that relies on German products
5/5

Pferd is the German word for horse. It is pronounced 'fair-ed,' but in some regions it is pronounced "fair-t. " Their first business venture was to sell farrier's tools. A tool like this is the invention of these two. The licensee licensed the color orange to Stihl who converted it to their own brand. However, this is a remarkable tool, regardless of the case. A single pass is made for all the parts of the link. Sharpening a link can take anywhere from one or two passes to multiple passes, depending on how badly the tooth is Then, when you are done, it is like butter. You set your bar on a piece of wood and the weight of the saw will cause it to go through it. A chain saw that was so sharp has never been used by me before. A Stihl with a 16" bar is all I need. At the dealership, my chains have been sharpened many times. There is a huge difference in sharpness between the two methods. As a result, electric sharpeners have an angle of attack that is WRONG on the tooth. I find it incredible that thousands of chains are being sharpened that are sharper than when they were brought in, but not nearly as sharp as they could be if the angle of attack was correct and if the depth gauge was correctly adjusted. All this is done in one pass with this tool. This is brilliant!.

This version is identical to the one with the Stihl badge, except for the There are no problems with these I purchased three of them in different sizes for my various saws because of how well they work
5/5

This is made in Germany, and is identical physically and in performance to the Stihl branded 2-inch chain resharpeners. I can resharpen a chain and simultaneously lower the depth gauges in about 5 minutes if I take my time. I see one sharpener that obviously comes from the same company. In both brands, there is just a difference in the color of the The instruction sheets and packaging are identical, right down to the pictograms.

I expected that this would work well
5/5

As a result of reading all the good reviews on Amazon and watching some YouTube videos, I bought this. Only had the chance to use it once so far, and it worked as expected. I put it on my Wish List when I first saw it. The price at the time was around $57 at the time. You have to use 2 hands to use it, so it should be supported in a vise. It doesn't function well without the support of the vise. decided to purchase the item about 2 weeks later when I saw that the price had dropped to $28. As I look at the price now, it has gone up You should keep an eye on the price as it's fluctuating quite a bit.

This is a very useful I don't know of any chainsaw sharpening aid as good as this
5/5

Until now, I was paying to have my chains sharpened about once a season, with periodic filing in between, but sometimes the filing would wander and the guy who ground them with abrasives would take off too much material. I can see how it would pay for itself very quickly. As a result, the chains will always be sharp and last longer because they will be removed at a faster rate with greater accuracy. In addition, it is a high quality tool, made in Germany and with top-notch Despite its plastic ends, this is a tool that will probably end up being passed down to my children. As it uses regular files instead of special files as some saw sharpeners do, you will be able to purchase more at any time.

This quality is similar to that of Chainsaw sharpener that is the best on the market
5/5

Two chainsaw sharpeners - one for my older chainsaw and one for my younger one The first is a Stihl 3/8 inch blade used for my larger saw, while the other is a Pferd 0 inch blade. For my smaller saws, 325 is the perfect number. In both cases, the sharpeners are German made. I see no difference in the quality, feel, or precision of the two tools as I compare them side by side. I believe that Pferd makes Stihl branded products as well. The only differences are the color scheme and the price. For anyone thinking about acquiring this software, here are two things to keep in mind 2) If it is cheaper, buy a Pferd unit. In our opinion, there is no reason to pay two and a half times more for a brand that's not really made by Stihl. Despite there being a slight color difference, the Pferd unit is identical. ** 1) Buy this razor You'll find no better one than this one. I like to spend money, but that is not the reason for having two. Over time, tiny errors get compounded, and you end up ruining a chain that can have had another half of its life left in it. I used to sharpen my chainsaws by hand, but over time I have become more and more inexperienced. With this sharpener, you can get the most use out of your chain. Chains can be expensive, and this tool will allow you to squeeze every last bit of life from them. *3) A sharp chain makes a great deal of Get a favor done for yourself. Get your chainsaw sharpened by taking the time to do so. It can be sharpened on your own without having to go to a shop. This tool is going to help you do more than what you can do yourself, without wasting a lot of time and money. **4) Do not read any There is no other one like it. You can move on with your life once you have it.

Although the concept was good, a high degree of dulling the teeth instead of sharpening them did not work
3/5

Three chains and a bar later, I finally found out that the guide sets the file too high and, as a result, the teeth are not being cut properly. Every time I filled up with gas, and sometimes several times, I used to sharpen. A sharp moment would last for a short period of time and then become You can see that the angle of the cutting part of the tooth is improper when viewing videos of properly and improperly sharpened teeth on youtube. The file is too high and gives the cutting part of the tooth an improper angle. My apologies, but this didn't work correctly.
