Husqvarna File Guides Confusion

Recommended Posts

Seem to be getting myself confused. Looking for Husqvarna file guide or combination file guides for the following Oregon chain:

 

95txl 0.50 (1.3mm) gauge & .325 pitch micro-chisel narrow kerf

 

72dpx 0.50 (1.3mm) gauge & 3/8 pitch semi-chisel

 

Advice gratefully received!

Thanks Chris

Could never get on with those roller thingys.

found the stihl/pferd multi ones good but they get a bit loose and giddy after a while. Also one for each file size run into a nice few quid.

The old flat guides are as good as any, cheap and last forever.

I have to disagree, the roller guides when used correctly are are very good, quick and a good final finish.

, they have to used correctly, the instruction on the packs i must admit are not very good, but once shown you never go back.

.325 is normally 4.8 mm file and respectively the file guide for that size file 

and 3\8 lopro / picco. (Ie not std 3\8) is 4mm size file and the correct guide.

Edit.  Flat file is the same file for the rakers/ depth gauge 

 

Can someone correct me or confirm this please..  as I know there is a bit of I know better with some folks like bucking billy... and tho odd little bits at the end of a tooth to help put the hook back on the tooth.?

Thanks for the input guys, and charts, I have the correct files (4.8 & 5.5mm), it's just finding the correct Husqvarna roller guide reference as they are referenced to Husqvarna chain. I think whether it micro, semi or full chisel grind also makes a difference to which guide. Still a bit muddled!
