Stihl .325 RS pro NK

[QuickDrawSaw]

So who's the guy I need to get a hold of to obtain an 81dl loop of this elusive chain? Just ordered a NK speed cut bar for my 036 in hopes of finding a loop or 2 of this chain.

I would assume you are talking about 23rs pro. .325 .050 gauge. If you are your local stihl dealer should be able to order you a couple of loops.

This should be the part number you need
3690 000 0081

I am indeed talking about the 23rs pro. When our parts guy looked up that part#, it says not available in US. But they'll let my buy a 100' roll for $611 (go figure). Attached is a picture of what I had him look up. I'm located in CT if it matters.

Stihl and husqvarna dealers are just about useless in CT for the most part. Try superior in southington, they are one of the better ones imo. Go to the back of the store for the parts department, the front desk guys aren’t the ones you want to ask.

Been running this chain on a Cannon bar for my MS260 and my 026.
Absolutely runs the best of any combination so far.

I'll definitely give em a shout, thanks for the heads up!

Where'd you get your chain at?
And would you want to ship a couple loops if I can't find any local?

The RS is very close to the Oregon chain I'm just about out of in 325 050 nk. Very smooth and fast. Not not good for dirty wood.

Bought these loops at my Stihl dealer here. If you can't find any I can look into it.
Though the dealer did not have the exact size I needed. They took an "in stock" size
and cut it down to match my bar. I wish you well in your search. As always its much better
to find stuff local if you can. It invests in your local economy and helps local business.

Nice Kenny. Where did you find them? Were you able to maintain that factory grind after sharpening?
Do you have any photos of the cutters?

Wow! Ok

 

[QuickDrawSaw]

Called a few local dealers and no one had anything! I'm in the marked for an 81dl loop shipped to CT

 

[RI Chevy]

I'm actually really shocked that no dealers are carrying this. It really is great chain. Fastest box 325 chain on market.

Damn man! That combo looks fast as hell!! Finally found that chain!
I was flipping through the 2021 online catalog at work and found out that it comes in 80DL and not 81DL like normal .325 for a 20" bar. 3690 005 0080 is that part #.
