Two last rows:

RH = Rapid Hexa
PH = Picco Hexa

I've been experimenting with this prototype that Darius@baltic-abrasives.com sent me. He's sending another with a finer grit to try.

For that picco chain, a thinner wheel would be needed.
I’ll check with my Stihl dealer here and find out if he has any.

This will be a great thing for the small saw / causal user market. Should eliminate most of the file height control issues

The real question now is, can you get hold of some? I really want to see this stuff in 043 because I have now used the 61PS3 pro and it's excellent. If this is as good I really want some

Hexa not only eliminates the problem of holding the file too low (or, much less often, high), but also ensures the same top plate cutting angles and side plate angles for all cutters. I don't expect crooked cuts using Hexa.
Of course, this inability to change these angles, which are permanently set at 60° due to the hexagonal file, means the inability to adjust to existing conditions, which may not be acceptable to some (more demanding) users.

As you may have noticed it is not yet possible to add the chains to the shopping cart. It's unlikely to have been
officially released yet.
In addition, I also have information from the Swiss price list.

I'll keep an eye out over here but I think it will be released in the EU first with a delay before I see it. I can't wait to see how tiny the file is

I bet that darn little file is still 5x more than round file . And that sumink like 10 €…$…£ or what ever symbol you put in front of it .

But I,m sure it will help Jonny homeowner cut better fire wood etc..
