.354 chain
By: farmboy Date: August 3, 2018, 8:55 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
When I first got started in saws being ignorant about chain I
bought a lg. box of premade .354 chain 73dl for 20" bar. Seller
said it would work w/.325 sprocket (NOT). Had it for many
years. Did pickup some .354 rims. Thought I might try it on a
hardnose bar on one of my 3450's if I ever get around to it.
Anybody ever run any .354?

Mark said this about 354
heimannm = .354 was a McCulloch special.
I have .050 and .058 and recently I saw a partial roll of .063.
If you don't find another home for it I would be happy to work
with you.

Aaron said = It's one of the McOddballs. I think only McCulloch
used it (mostly on the X-10 saws). Mark H has some of it. It's
fine if you have the sprocket to run it

More by Mark = I have 50' of .050 and 100' of .058 (or vice
versa) and a good supply of rim type sprockets. I have never
seen any .354 sprocket nose bars so I only run it on hard nose
bars.
It is all chipper style chain so not the fastest in a cut, but
does hold up well to all day cutting.
In addition, I have maybe 8 new 61 DL loops, and another 10 or
12 used loops.
As Aaron pointed out, something McCulloch tried to make sure
people came back to them for the chain.
It you care to pick up a roll or two I'll be happy to pick them
up when I pass by your way on 18 September, or I can drop off a
few .354 sprockets and you can try some for yourself. Let me
know if I need to bring the breaker and spinner along.
