18" Ultralite Bar for Echo CS-4910"

[MAWoodsman]

Looking to shave a little weight off my 4910. The stock 18" bar is just under 2bs without the chain.
Any suggestions?

The bar that comes with the 4910 is already pretty lightweight. There aren’t many offerings in the oddball Echo mount, let alone something in lightweight. The only option I can think of is a Sugi in small husky mount, which requires a little bit of dremel work to get the chain tensioner holes to line up. But it’s a full size bar. Even the lightweight model I would imagine is considerably heavier than what you have

I tried a search earlier and found very few offerings that MAY be lighter. Oregon Versacut was 1.78 lbs. Tail mount style is K216... limited offerings. I even found a possible Oregon Prolite bar but showed 2.44 lbs. No longer made.

Just so you know what I found to work without doing anything to the bars. K041 which is same tail mount almost as K095 and the A041 been working out great for me swapping back forth. Been goofing off with 3/8, 3/8LP and 325.

I was thinking there was another one that would work. Is that the bar that fits a 241? And the rest of the smaller Stihls I suppose

I'm using poulan mount bars. Very common bars and work.
