8ten chains

[RI Chevy]

Must be those triangle cutters. Lol
Looks very aggressive!

 

[chipper1]

I mark a part of the chain with red paint to identify where I start and stop filing, someone on here posted it, it works easier on a new chain

I don’t know what the 21 means that’s stamped on the driver, 25 is on the raker. I just counted 67 drivers and yeh bumper/humped drivers.View attachment 185092View attachment 185093View attachment 185094View attachment 185095

Did you sharpen that, if so with what.

 

[Absolution]

Man, that looks like you'd want to keep the rakers high or a bigger powerhead.

 

[huskihl]

Looks like Raisman chain. Both the color and factory grind

 

[Wonkydonkey]

When I got the first one, I was impressed so I brought another This chain is brand new, never filed.
Yes I here you when you say aggressive/ keep the rakers high.

I found the item in my list.
I cannot guarantee, they will send the same, if anyone wants to try one out... but here is the link to what I brought.

Remember the 18” I brought was semi chisel, the only identification is by the code HFC325X

Where as the 16” is HFC325Q

Although There pics look the same...

How's the chain holding up?
they have three semi chisel for 39.00
That's what archer used to be priced at.
It's not the bargain it was it's oregon priced now
Except for .58 gauge is still 13.21 shipped.
I've run a lot of archer 84dl chisel and 72dl upstart chisel from amazon lately after a hand file
They've been good.

Can't you use some of those cheap stihl 24x.063 we got earlier this yr. Last I saw they were still listed.
I traded off 4 for a few 91dl's in various flavors and then ordered another 4 to have around, I don't even run 063 on my stuff, but I do have a few bars/chains for it laying around.

Those were .58 gauge
I only bought one 2166
Unlike some people.

ran a tank with the 8ten cut pretty good for out of the box chain.
Didn't stretch any.
Was too tight to run a 8 pin
I had to put a 7 on it.
Could've been the new china oregon the rails were a bit tight to begin with.
Worth 11.50 shipped so far
Can't speak for durability.

 

[Czed]

By appearances the 8ten and archer are the same componentsthat's fine if it is
I've run archer a lot it's got my business
And if 8ten matches it at about 5.00 a loop cheaper
Even better.8ten
Archer
Oregon lgx

 

[ucm931]

That 8ten looks like it has a thicker top plate.

Looks the same to me
Different bluing to them.The stupid sealed packages are a *b-word
And a half a cup of oil in each package
Is aggravating.

 

[ucm931]

Yup, I see it now. Was probably just the way the light caught the bluing or the sharpened edge that was deceiving me.

 

[Czed]

Cut a few tanks through a 2165 and a 266 yesterday with new 8ten full chisel.didn't touch it new out of box
It cut fine didn't self feed though
I'll handfile before next time.no stretch so far
Worth it to me.

 

[RI Chevy]

TY for the update

 

[Czed]

I ran the 8ten all day cutting hardwood
No issue's
Hasn't stretched at all
The last loop of oregon full chisel I ran stretched a lot.
The 8ten and Archer took a big price increase lately
Near oregon Price's now.
