Cheapest 4ft bar for Ms 880?

[cornish chough]

Hi .looking for a supplier for a 4ft ish bar and chain for a stihl ms 880

Cheap bars are a false economy Kim. Buy right and buy once!

I would buy a good quality one like Sugihara I had Stihl bar on my 880 and some how it cracked where it bolts to the unit, which was surprising, it hasnt done a massive amount of work, and being OE I expected alot more. so I think to answer your question, if you buy cheap you'll be buying twice

I don't think there such a thing as cheap long bars.

 

The best priced is the Sugihara 46" bar as per here.

 

SG6T-3S115-A 46" Sugihara Pro Solid Bar For Stihl 050, 051, 070, 075, 076, 08, 090, 088, MS880 Part Number SG6T-3S115-A - Alaskan Mill ? Mobile Chainsaw Mills

In this case I would not go Stihl! The 47" Duromatic bar is a relic from the past and causes all sorts of issues with oiling and heat on the MS880. Their 36" and 59" bars are good though...

This!

 

When my 880 came new with the 47" stihl bar, I put it straight on eBay, it sold for more than the cost of the better sugi bar of the same size.

No nose sprocket on the stihl, not a good thing.

The oregon bars usually come up a bit cheaper than the oe equivalent.
