Tilton Equipment no longer Distributing Jonsered Equipment

Anyone know if there are any Jonsered Tsumura bars left out there i need a 20" and 16" 3/8 .050. Small mount

I believe they shared the bar nuts....:msp_biggrin:

Actually that wasn't a pure joke, as at least some older Jonsereds (with the D024 mount) did not share the bar nuts with Husky.

As it looks to me, the larger Jonsered saws started to use the D009 mount and 8mm Husky nuts at the same time as production was moved to the Husky factory, exemplified with the later 8/900 series saws, that can be found with both bar mounts/nut sizes...

Bear in mind that the last statement above is not my personal findings, but based on what others have posted about their saws through the years.

I would have liked a small mount 16" and a large mount 20", prefereably black - and of course .058....:msp_wink:

Dreaming is fine, but the practical gain may be nil - over just using Pro-Lites.

The change in mounts didn't occur until the late 80's or early 90's with the 830/930 series of saws. There was a mid production change in bar mounts in that series to the D009 mount. So there are 830 and 930 saws out there with both bar mounts.

Now we are getting way off topic here, but who was the first manufacturer to use the K095 mount? The earliest Husky I found was the 140 from 1973 but the Jonsereds go back to the late 60's.

You are correct my friend, the only benefit of the reduced weight bars is for those that feel compelled to use rsn's!

Homelite. The E-Z/Super E-Z and XL-101 series saws used that mount and they were released in the late 1960's.

Yes, it was some time in the late 1980s, all I know about the Husky factory thing is that all the better Jonsered models were made at the Husky factory by some time in 1991 (according to a Jonsered tech. note (service bulletin) dated that year - but it likely happened a bit earlier, and started in 1982/83 with the 630 and 670. This included many models that Husky had no version of.

just bought a 20" like you want yesterday- treemonkey had some

The Tsumura bars are definately heavier than the laminated Pro-Lites, the "cool factor" is the only reason I would want one. When possible, I actually prefer the original Husky bars (laminated), that are lighter that the rebranded Pro-Lites. It is a pity that the Rollomatic E (not ES) is not made with any Husky mount, but it is of course possible to use a 3003 mount one on the large Husky mount ones.

Btw, there is a 25" (24 really) Rollomatic E out there, that might be an excellent choise for those that are looking for a light 24" bar. The downside (if it really is one) is that it has a 10t nose, and has rather curved flanks.

is it worth shipping a bar from the US Niko ?

I wonder which Jonsered model that was? :msp_confused:

According to my brother, not for one bar, but for two or more in one package, some times - I guess it depends on the deals you get in the first place...

The 50 which was developed in the late 60's.

I figured that was the one, but it didn't show up on the market before 1970, as far as I know.

Btw, why is it called small Husky, and not small Jonsereds, if that was the first one?

Frankly, I wasn't sure if those saws had that mount, and didn't look it up - I just reacted at the 1960s comment, since they weren't out that early - and the smallest Jonsereds before that were the 61, 601 and 62, and those had the D024....

Really it should be small Homelite. From here on out I will be calling it the K095.

:cool2: That is what I prefere to call it, but there are many members that have no idea what that is...

Afaik, Husky didn't use it before 1973, on the 140 - so they don't really deserve that it is called "small Husky" mount, if it was used before that - but who really cares about such details by now?

Btw (general comment, not to you), there are lots of bar mounts out there that has an 8.2mm stud slot (including Stihl 3005), but it doesn't mean it is the same mount.

I didn't know it was full, but cleaned out 29 messages, so I guess it is availiable now...:msp_smile:

Actually they show a 25" E 3003 000 7831(.050) or 5231(.063) labeled as yellow with an 11t nose the same as the narrower ES bars. The 10t is the green ES bar they offer.

The 10t nose Rollomatic E that my brother bought on Ebay is a "green" one - if there are "yellow" 11t ones out there as well, they are likely even better options - I just posted about what I knew about, as those bars don't seem to be advertised as availiable, even though they exist.

Anyway, I believe a 25" (called) Rollomatic E is a very good option for those looking for a light 24" bar - including Husky 562xp owners (that really want a 24" TechLite). :msp_smile:
