SOLD 3/8 .063 Windsor Chain

[SmithZ28]

I have 16' of NOS Windsor chain. It is 3/8 .063 full chisel. All my bars are .050. I would like to trade for equivalent in .050 or 2 36" chains and negotiate difference in value if you have more. I will take it off the roll to ship in a smaller package.

Any presets, or tie straps with this?

When you say 36" loop, are you looking for 114 or 115 drive links?

 

[SmithZ28]

I can include a couple presets and tie straps. I am looking for 114 dl loops. I would also consider trading towards a 28" es light bar in .050

Okay.

A 28" ES Light? Would you be adding $?

 

[Lightning Performance]

Thats nice chain for milling.

Thats nice chain for milling.

Yes, it is.

I would much prefer .063 on a bar 32" or longer.

Absolutely

 

[SmithZ28]

Yes, it is.

I'm curious of your reasons for the .063 preference on long bars. Less stretch? More strength? I was understanding that Stihl chain uses .063 drive links for all chain and thins the lower part down for the bar groove.

I would take a guess that it oils better.

More strength, and carries more oil to the end of the bar.

I've never heard, or read that about the manufacturing of Stihl chain. Maybe that would explain why they charge so fugging much for it?....LOL!

Yes.

@Jon1212 you buying this chain?

Considering it. If you're interested, Ken, go for it.

I considered buying a bar to run it on but I want my next bar to be a 28" ES Light in .050

I don't think I want an odd ball bar for my collection. .063 is not common in my area. The other bars I have are all .050 except for one .325 .063. I did see a 32" NOS Carlton bar in .063 on eBay though. Hmmmm.

Archerplus on eBay sells the Tsumura light and tough in 28" .050 for a great price.

I too read this on the internet so it must be true...

Wish I had an 28" ES Light to send you, sold all the ones I had, didn't even keep one for myself.
