I have that same thing on a zippo lighter. Now about that homelite bar cover. :innocent:
1 of many, if I had extras I would part with one.

I sold all my old dolmar covers to a collector and just kept one for wall.

Few of them

Some of us know what a real used bar is. Good lord that guy is killing me ROFLMAO at him. I love it.
Like playing with a yo yo cant wait for the next stupidity out of his mouth.

Dude wants spoon fed info. Look up the chain for goodness sake I gave all the info in post.

Like my sign says over bench. CFS

What's wrong with the 063 325? Not arguing, just asking, I'm using it on my 036 with 18" bar.

Someone mentioned earlier that an 036 works great with 3/8 pitch RS and I agree. I use it on my 036 and 362C.


Here's some interesting images I've borowed off of the internet:

I didn't realize the RS and RS Pro had different cutter dimensions, thanks.

I'm not sure that they are of different dimensions.

The drive tang being .050 Vs. .063 accounts for .33 mm thinner. If the side plates and tooth base is also reduced the same it would account for the different in specs in the first diagram I posted. The math works out real close.

I'd like to know more about the other dimensions but they must be. Looking at the drawing it looks like two verticle lines show the overlap of the top plates. That overlap looks to be the same so that would mean the top plate is a little narrower on the RS Pro. If the drawing can be trusted.

For that 33cc saw in post 1 try the 0.043" gauge Stihl 3/8 picco 61 class. at least for staying with what the title asks.

I have some of the 3690 from when they offered it in brand x drive link loops. Stihl has since made their bars for this product with their chosen drive link counts. I don't have handy any of the earlier RS in .325 but I think the side taper is more. The other chain is Upstart H .325 by 0.050" with necked down drive links. The part numbers for the splicing components should be visible. I often put a black dog in my pictures but only a short hair made it in this one of the drive links.shrunk photo of chain and box and preset bags.jpg

Also if you go in and ask for 23RS that is what the 23RS pro was years back. Just look at cutter to tell difference.

23RS so called pro years back was sold as 23RS here last few years.

I used a to run the old stepped down one too.

We had a thread on all this 23RS C33 63PS etc etc etc over the years elsewhere.

Here is some pics from thread others shared.


Old stepped drive link and new 23RS true 050 whole drive link and C33 stepped still from 058 to 050.
