1/2 inch chainsaw chain

[palbin]

With a regular spinner.

Sounds good - you wouldn't happen to have info such as e.g., Oregon
number?

By the way - anvil - isn't that the breaking stuff - that I have already
(I think at least) - what I need is the spinning stuff ... .

Nope!.....check Oregons website.

While yer all at it, anyone got a couple exter 1/2 master links laying around. Got enough chain to make 2 loops but no masterlinks...

Sorry, I only buy stuff - never sell - thanks!

PS. If you answer my query (that is, how to spinn) instead of
creating a lot of "side tracks" I will send you 1 or 2 preset/ties
for free should I find I have an oversupply of them ... . DS:

 

[indiansprings]

If you need some you might PM member rsting he has some, he rarely post but is a great guy.

 

[Dennis Cahoon]

He who has the 1/2" pre-sets makes the rules!.....:hmm3grin2orange:

42' of 1/2" pitch "micro chisel" Oregon chain went for $388 + $13

I quit at $210 I think...

I just paid cirka usd 1000 (a tiny bit less than GBP 700) for 120 feet
incl postage and some extra supply of prestes/ties, files and (hopeful-
ly) sprocket rims ... .

I think it may be a bit of an issue of bulk chains vs chains - some pe-
ople do not have chain making equipment and are then forced to pay
for that, sort of ... .

I have an oversupply of Oregon 0.404 0.063 presets/ties.

Got about 10 or so more than I need ... .

Regarding 7/16 and 1/2 sprockets and sprocket rims:

While the latter seem to be hard to find you can find a great
variety of so called spur sprockets for 7/16 and 1/2 - but for
vintage saws obviously - how do you know if any of these can
be used on modern saws, such as e.g., big Huskys?

Seems that some of them should fit if life is not too unfair?

 

[palbin]

Apparently 7/16 and 1/2 chains are done from reels with exactly the same
equipment as more ordinary chains (0.325, 3/8 and 0.404) - just use the
A-Oregon-stuff (which is also used for 0.404 etc) ... my lack of knowledge
... .

I have found 2 new and 1 used Oregon 7 teeth 1/2 inch x SD7 sprocket
rims - but no 7/16 (although I have a Homelite fixed sprocket thing I am
sure I can make a sprocket rim of by hand with some work ) - should
anyone have one or a few 7/16 x SD7 sprocket rims (say 7 tooth) to sell I
will be happy to buy them ... .

 

[heimannm]

I looked and see that I have two 7/16" spline / rim type sprockets.

PM me if you are interested in one, we can work something out.

Hello!

Where do I find 1/2 inch chainsaw chains (not wider than
0.063)? I do not mind chain reels if available ... .

Also, I have been told that there should be 7/16 chains
available - where do I find them?

Thanks

Did you ever find any 1/2 chain?
