Chain differences?

[Old Mill Tree Care]

I need new chains for my t540XP. What is the difference between these two, apart from price?

Also, is the best option for fastest cutting speed?

Thanks.

I agree with IC The Stihl full chisel would be fastest but you will have to get aloop made as it is a different number of drive links than husky for a given bar lencth . Failing that the Oregon is better than the Husky chain that comes with the saw . That is more a home owner/hobby.pants chain ....

They were just on the shelf at my dealers, you just need 2 more drive links then the 201 of same bar length.

Thanks guys. Trouble is that I don't have a local Stihl dealer that is selling it in loops and the stupid online policy means I can't get it, so I'm stuck with the Oregon or Husky loops.

Oh well.

Good idea. I will.

I'm using the 91vxl on my 540 and finding it excellent. No issues in the load of dead hard elm I've had to do.

Not tried the Stihl chain though.

The Stihl online policy no longer applies

 

Rob D has what you are looking for.
