36 inch lo-profile bar

[Mike1974]

Hey all.

I saw logosol has a 36 inch lopro bar on their site. Does anyone else offer a lo-pro bar that long or longer? its at $78 which isn't terrible, but not great either.

The longest lopro bar I have right now is 24", which is an oregon pro-lite. I have a standard 42" .63 with a loop of ripping chain I use on the mini-mill to ssquare off the big stuff.

I'm figuring if I have a 36" lopro on the logosol, I ought to have as near a good set-up as I need before laying some down fatter cash for a bandsaw.


Thoughts?

What about the drive sprocket?

$78 is a good price for any 36" bar. You can find 36" bars for less on ebay, if you are patient, but not 36" lo-pro bars.

I have the picco spur sprocket for the 660.

Thanks mtngun - I didn't think $78 was bad, just didn't want to spend it if there as another product that might be just as good, etc., etc.

I haven't actually seen a lopro bar that long anywhere - except for the ones guys make by grinding down the bar nose sprocket.

Damn!, or as we say in Oz "Bugga" ( said closer to "Baaggaa" than "Boogaa")

Interesting what you said about the chain vibe and then break. Could it have been due to the chain been over stretched at that point and then it maybe jumped a drive sprocket tooth and brocke?

No kidding. I just paid $90 at my local dealer for a 25" Stihl bar... My rear end is sore now.

Logosol offers a 48" bar

Hi.

Perhaps this might help you. Logosol offers a 48" (120cm) bar in 3/8" PICCO with 0,050" (1,3mm) groove here in Germany. This is the longest bar for the small 3/8" PICOO chains I kwno about. Like the other low profile bars of Logosol the bar is manufactured by GB in Australia. This offer is not on the official site www.logosol.de. I saw it in the Logosol shop last december and it should be available again at end of march.

The 7 teeth 3/8" Picco spur sprocket for the MS660 has the Stihl spare part number 1122 640 2006.
