Questions & Answers

What kind of drill can these be used with?

However, this part depends on the extremely fast pace of the Dremel - and thus, don't think you can do that. A 30,000 rpm motor When sharpening, its job is to do its job. You would be wasting your time if you attempted to do this with a drill. You wouldn't be able to sharpen your chainsaw chain with it.

Can you tell me what the recommended RPM is?

It worked well for me to go slow. In the comments, there are a lot of opinions about speed.

What kind of performance do these have on carbide chains. Do they last for about how long sharpening carbide lasts?

Those chains are designed to be used on standard Stihl chains. There was an inconsistency in diamond coating application on shafts and the gripping mechanism was defective. As a result, the diamond coating soon lost much of its strength, and it was of little A couple of these were marginal, so I threw out the fourth. The stones did not cut as well as the standard Dremel rocks. It was not a matter of too high a speed or overheating because I was using a Fordom Flexshaft and I had very good speed control. They did not come with the $12 package (at least the set I received). The money I spent was about 00. They were too fine to be of use on carbide. I doubt they would be of any use on carbide.

Stihl 028 uses a 3/8 chain for its chain drive. What is the life expectancy of the 3/16 bit for an old Makita drill with variable speed?

In your question, you received the wrong answer. The 3/8 chain refers to its pitch, not the stone it needs to be sharpened. Depending on the type of chain, the correct stone size will be different. I believe it is 3/16 in diameter, but you can check the instruction manual or box it came in to confirm it is the correct size. Do not listen to those who told you that you need three eighths of a

This sharpening tool works much better than stone sharpening tools
5/5

My family and I have been sharpening chain saw blades ourselves for the past 50 years and this is the first time we have used The long and short of it is that I will use up what stones I have and only use these diamond sharpeners from now on. Due to their rapid and efficient speeds, diamonds are a better choice. As the grinding stone is ground down, the diameter of the grinding surface continuously changes, so each successive tooth is ground at a different diameter. This technique results in a chain that is sharpened so that each tooth behaves differently, allowing the blade to grab and slice It is binding. Diamond stones are bonded to steel cylinders so they maintain in a uniform diameter or a diameter so close it does not result in noticeable differences in the blade teeth. This, in turn, allows for a much finer grinding of the blades. When you sharpen with these sharpeners, you will notice that the first cut will be improved. The heat from the fire removes the temper from the You may want to reduce the rpm of your sharpener and make two to three short grinds instead of one in order to keep the blade from overheating. There are other sellers who provide these sharpeners at a slightly lower price, but with a slightly longer delivery time.

This is a sharpener that is very effective, but is very aggressive
5/5

The chain appears to be joined and you just need to slip the link through. No tools are required, just The Dremel-like device works with a drill, but not with a drill It's much, much better, allowing you to do much more with the tool. One big caveat is that this is a very aggressive way to sharpen chainsaw chains. As soon as I got these, I was in awe of how well they worked, and I used them every time I had to sharpen a saw. As a result, I learned it's ultimately about me It was defeated. There is a problem with these machines because they remove a lot of material and they generate In short, it shortens the life of the chain and softens it (-) at the same time. A temperer is used to temper As a result of a lot of trial and error, I've decided that I sharpen 90% of the chain by hand, and only use the tools when I'm really hitting dirt or the chain is severely worn. I think these are really good value for the price. They last a really long time, and the tool itself seems pretty I would definitely recommend this product, just be cautious when using.

Getting a good solution at a cheap price
5/5

Any tool I've seen used to describe it has almost never been described as CHEAP and GOOD. It is one of the rare exceptions to the old adage, "you get what you pay for. ". If you were to use this burr for a battery, it would work like this In less than ten minutes, I was able to create a reliable 16" chain with a power drill. It is as simple as that It is enough to ball the original grind angles of the chain to produce excellent To be effective and durable, these burrs must be used at the relatively low RPMs of a hand drill. If you grind at speeds greater than 600 rpm, the tool will quickly lose its life and the grinding quality will suffer. You should use a Dremel tool at the lowest speed setting and with very little pressure to give a good result. The high speed and force can soften the cutting edge of the chain as well as prematurely wear out the burr. Using these inexpensive burrs correctly and with a basic knowledge of how the finished cutting edge should look when properly ground is a quick and easy way to restore a dulled chainsaw's cutting edge.

This diamond chain saw sharpener is inexpensive and I prefer it to the grindstone type because it works well at low speeds (less likely to overheat the chain tooth and ruin the temper) and is all metal, with only a thin coating of diamonds (no glass to break)
4/5

For the price, these work well for me. I have bought other brands that work better and last longer, but those ones are more expensive. I have used E-Verse's best product, and it is still mine today This was courtesy of Z Lap grit, which seemed to last a lot longer than traditional grit. The price was the same for a single burr, but the price for this 4-pack was much less One of those bits lasted perhaps four times as long as one from this pack. My sharpener burrs were out of stock when I needed them and I couldn't find any E-type sharpeners The Z Lap was unavailable, so these were an acceptable alternative.
They didn't wobble or chatter, and they cut quite Eventually, the diamonds will wear off, exposing the metal base and you will have to replace the burr. If the burr looks shiny, then the diamonds are wearing off, exposing the metal base.

USE CORRECTLY - SERIOUSLY EFFICIENT - SHARPENING STONE
5/5

Review websites were read before I made a purchase. However, the key is dialing back your rotary tool to its slowest speed. They work exceptionally well, but the key is dialing back your rotary tool to its slowest speed. Sharpening bits are kept from being burned out by doing this. On my rotary tool, the slowest speed, I only had to use about two seconds to sharpen each chisel tooth on a chain saw blade to be as sharp or sharper than new with the first bit I used. I used the bit for the first time and it was still in perfect shape. Although I cannot say how long the stone bit will last, my expectation is that it will last many more years.

It is impossible to comprehend or believe For years, I've been sharpening my saw chain with a skinny file, just like anyone else
5/5

Diamond burrs caught my eye, so I decided to give them a shot. You can't imagine a file being worse than them, can you? There is an absolute difference between the two. With just a few passes of the burr, the cutting edge becomes obvious how shiny it really is. Then, I took a flat file to the top of the teeth just to make sure they were actually straight, and I headed This is the first time that I have ever thrown chips as far as I are throwing them As if they were new. I feel like my teeth are sharp and are cutting just as they used to. If you have a dremel or similar tool to chuck them in, you shouldn't hesitate to buy a set of these little wonders. In reality, it takes no longer than a minute to develop a tooth, and maybe a full minute to develop a chain. Ensure the chain you get is the right size for your saw and chain by checking one of the saw chain sites. Having that knowledge makes all the difference in the world.

Purchase this cheap product at your own risk! This set was purchased a couple of years ago
3/5

I have used one sharpener since then with no problem. I'd lost the others when we moved, so I bought another set, and it took two of them to complete the set. I believe there are TWO to consider I went to them to get my chainsaw sharpened so that it would actually cut. My old files have worn out and are no longer useful, so I threw them away and bought a nice old-fashioned file instead. Wasted.
