sorry but I can't help much on this...
from what my dealer told me, those light bars are not being sold here in the US due to Tilton having "issues" with their quility. They are not in my catalog and I can't find out much about them.

Where was this at link? I'm trying to find a new bar for my 6401 and would prefer somewhere in canada. I've almost bought a couple of bars from Baileys this week but I don't want to get dinged to hard by duty.

Something I didn't notice before, the Total/Tsumura bars you fella's have posted pics of use 4 rivets to retain the sprocket on the nose, whereas the Carlton/Tsumura bars use 6 rivets to retain the sprocket bearing ??
What are the numbers on the nose of your Total bars ?

Tsumura is updating their tips to the 4 rivet. They believe it will last longer as they did changes inside.

I found a Jonsered shop in my area that has Total bars that are stenciled Jonsered. All there display saws were wearing them. If anyone needs the number pm me. Don't expect any bargains though.

Same with mine, I think it would be common on the east coast as Tilton is the supplier of both. For those interested the part number for Josered screened Super Bars starts with a J and regular ones start with a T.

Tsumura bars for Dolmar 7900
Hi everyone,
I'm dragging this thread back up to ask/plead for information or anyone who might be able to locate me a 24 and 28 or 30" Tsumura sprocket tip bars (I don't give a hoot what brand is printed on them), please?
It's a nightmare trying to find these bars in New Zealand and I really don't want to use anything else on my brand spanking new dolmar7900 that landed recently.
3/8 pitch, .058 (or even .063, although I'm trying to standardise on .058 if possible) gauge. I've tried a few places and they won't sell out of the states. Matt from Aus' has dropped off the face of the Earth or has gotten so fed up with my emails that he's not replying to me any more, so my new dolmar just sits on the shelf, sulking, while my little stihl struggles through some quite hard logs I'm cutting (for the next few weeks anyway) that the dolmar would be ideal for.
Can anyone please help?
Thanks in advance.

Nah still here mate. I don't ignore any emails so something must be up at either your end or mine. Maybe you were also trying to sell Viagra in your emails and they were blocked?

Received thanks.
I could have done without those pics of yourself naked in compromising positions with your dog though. They do nothing for me m8. :msp_confused:
It looks like you just haven't received my last few emails yet I'm getting yours? Odd. Never had a prob' with gmail before.
Cheers, and a big thanks to AS for the PM feature.

You'll note the "FV" code rather than the "PV" we are used to seeing:
I don't know the exact gap between sprocket rivets of the FV noses, but I do wonder if guys who bolt their noses to the their mills wil be OK with this new design as it looks like the rivets are on a tighter radius. Hopefully they can just use smaller diameter bolts if need be.
I did wreck a sprocket while doing too much clueless work cutting at the nose limbing fallen trees near the ground. I wonder if the sprockets themselves will stand up to more abuse by monkeys like me now.

Tsumura bars.
The new bearing is bigger and should last longer, it probably won't take more abuse. They are fairly hard metal and don't do well when pinched. If you were in BC Canada, I could help you out with bars, but your not, so sorry, Dave.

I'm sure it's just a typo, but Tsumura are made in Japan from Japanese SKS-51 tool steel.
I've been looking up Total bar info lately and just came across your post here. It's interesting you would say it is Japanese Tool steel, specifically SKS-51 because I have used that metal as a knife maker. That is very high quality metal used for making band saws of all sizes and large knives. It's prone to rusting, though, which would explain why Tsumura put a great finish on the bar. I have a few Bowies I've made and owned that were made out of it. The AISI(US/Intl) equivalent is 'L6' tool steel.

I'm currently after a 20" small mount Husky bar.
