Lightest 262 bar

[Onan18]

I have a 18" sugi hara on my 262 and it balances nicely a touch back to the handle.
Not sure it is the lightest but I like it.
It will likely be heavier than a skinny 325 laminate bar
I like it tho

The Tsumura Light and Toughs are typically a couple of ounces lighter than a comparable Sugi

Here's a 20" http://www.woodcuttersgaragellc.com/product-page/bc28d783-a00d-8ee0-d048-563e3bf1bf48

The 18" was .325 and a tip was listed at $22.

Good looking bar.

I have a 18" Sugi on my stihl. Excellent choice in bar. Any high quality bar will pay for itself.

I think he's wanting a light weight bar at a cheaper price, he said weight would top longevity.
I'll look around the shop tomorrow, I mite have some.

More $ for a more a better wearing bar is fine with me, but of the two I would prefer the lightest weight option.

I really like my tsumara/ total bar. They seem to wear great. (At least with my usage) and

So best source for Tsumara light & tough bar is fordf150? Any others in case he doesn't stock that particular bar?

From Nate's post today it doesn't like like the new distributor of Tsumara is going to have any lightweght K095 bar at all. Hopefully he can work with them to change that has he used to have the light weight versions up to 24".

I dont worry to much about bar weight on my 262. I have a 18" husqy bar on it. But on my 385 its another story. Sugi all the way. Every ounce counts on that beast.

I can't feel a difference between bars when I have in buried in wood.
