Echo 2511tes (and other mini top handles) chain

[stewmo]

Running the 1/4 pitch 0.43 chain at the moment. Has 56 drive links.

 

Saw the new husky battery top handle runs 325 043 chain and wondered if anyone running that on the echo or other small top handles.

 

I’m presuming there’ll be less cutters so may perform better in the bigger wood?

Only run 1/4 on my echo. But the makita stuff comes with 3/8 .43 chain, and not a huge difference in speed of cut between that and the 1/4 but the 1/4 ) leaves a much smoother cut, but more irritating to sharpen.

ya tiny chains are a PITA to sharpen,  sometimes i simply stick on a new chain and hang the blunt one on a nail and maybe i'll get to it one day....
