what sprocket?

[jrose]

Hi All,

 

I want to get a new sprocket for my secondhand Husky 365, my question is which is better, 7 or 8 tooth? I see both are available, what are the differences?

 

Saw has a 20" Powermatch bar (3/8), if this makes a difference

 

cheers,

Joe

Chain pitch is different.

id run a 7 with the 20" bar

sorry personal preference

bigger sprocket more speed

but less torque

I prefer big:thumbup:

bit would not run a 20 inch bar on a 365

I have a 7 tooth with a 20" bar. Fantastic logging saw.

just fitted 8 tooth sprocket on my 365 but only for my 15" bar transforms a good saw into an even better one:thumbup:for my20" and 24" bars 7 tooth dead easy to change the cog

On my 365 I use 7 tooth with 20" bar but 8 tooth with 15":thumbup:
