Know before you buy
This chain is specifically designed for the Sportsman 807646 and GCS5220 models. To ensure compatibility with other saws, verify that your bar requires a .325-inch pitch, a .058-inch gauge, and exactly 60 drive links.
Full chisel cutters feature square-cornered teeth that slice through wood fibers more aggressively than semi-chisel designs. This makes them ideal for fast, precise cuts in clean wood, though they may dull faster in dirty or abrasive conditions.
You should use a 3/16-inch round file to sharpen this chain. The built-in top-plate filing indicators help you maintain the correct angle for consistent results.
LubriTec is a design feature that helps distribute oil more effectively across the chain and guide bar. By reducing friction during operation, it helps extend the lifespan of both your chain and your chainsaw bar.
Yes, the OCS-01 steel construction and full chisel design are built for demanding tasks, including felling and general-purpose cutting. It is compatible with saws ranging from 38cc to 62cc.
The cutters are blued to provide built-in corrosion resistance, which helps protect the metal from rust. However, it is still best practice to clean the chain and apply a light coat of bar oil if you are storing the saw for an extended period.
