Tsumara bar - white vs silver

[harrygrey382]

Looking at a 20” Tsumara bar for my 064. Is there any difference between the white and the silver bars?

If white like meaning this. Those are light weight bars. The silver is soild bars.

They also have a black insert light weight even lighter.

Yeah basically I’m looking at two different suppliers - one sells silver one sells white. As far as I can tell they’re the same but I’d like to know first. White is $15 cheaper

I have 20-25 tsumura bars
Six of them the so called light bars with the oval cutouts that aren't much lighter than the solid bars.
I have never seen a white bar
Unless I'm wrong that Is the same bar photographed differently.

Thanks. They both look solid though

I believe it’s just the lighting in the picture. They are all silver

Hmm you may well be right - if photographed in a white enclosure it would look white. I can only see white bars in the Tsumara catalogue so maybe that’s what’s happened

Not for the woods I cut - it’s perfect. It’s on its third bar now. Got a 28” but rarely use it, that’s where the 090 comes in. I don’t know anyone running bigger than 20” on an MS660 in the local region

Never seen the newer premium light with black inserts! I need to try and find one.

Where do you even find a Tsumara catalog to search for bar part numbers or fitment?

I think it is just the photo/lighting. It is the silver solid bar.
