SP33G Chain Presets?

[GMB74]

My online searching isn't bringing up anything.
Anybody have a part number for presets for Husqvarna SP33G chain (.325. .050 Pixel Narrow Kerf)?
I may need to shorten some chains I bought.
I assume these can be purchased from a Husky dealer, does anyone have a better or preferred source?

If not, maybe call and see if they have what you need.

Does a standard .325 preset not fit?
Worst case…carefully disassemble the chain and then reuse the parts to reassemble.

atpchas found what I was looking for, thank you.
I wasn't looking to buy a whole bag, but this gives me a starting point.

I have never tried reusing the presets. Working in the dealership we always had an endless supply of spares if you messed one up.
Is this a safe and secure option?

It has been a common solution for decades. Do you have to be careful? Absolutely. Buppt, while working on a firewood crew where we used our chains down to nubs, reusing presets was never a problem. I never heard of anyone having one cut loose. An old dealer I know used to do the same when he ran out of factory presets. Done correctly, it is as safe as using new, IMO.

Good to know.
Thanks!

I buy them from one of my 3 local servicing dealers or Amazon.

My one local Husky dealer doesn't handle Husky chain. He will order loops and the repair kit noted above (30 pieces, I was only going to shorten a couple of chains). He carries Oregon chain and has the presets for that.
My local Stihl dealer has the presets for Stihl chain.
I'm not finding SP33G specific presets on Amazon.
Has anyone tried to use the standard Oregon or Stihl presets on SP33G chain? Will they fit and work?
Trying them or reusing the links off the old chain is looking like the best options for me at this time.
