Sugi Hara Bars

[Stubby]

Stubby what size bar are you running on your 560XP??

 

18" .325 full chiz driven by an 8 pin ....

My order of 2 13" Sugi bars has just been dispatched from FR Jones.

 

Got 1 solid one for the 346 and a light weight one for the 550.

 

If i like them i can see them going on all on all my saws. Not a lot in it between one of these and a powermatch plus.

Not coppicing hazel then .

 

no but was using a 40" for snedding the other week tho

I had my 560xpg changed to 3/8" before it left the dealer (73LP) - but each to his own!

 

The 15" .325x7 semi chisel setup that is standard is a bad joke, that surely detracts from the performance of the saw.

Will soon be setting up the next order of Sugi bars - will be getting 100 of the 15" sugi light types for Huskys... also laminated lightweight version...

 

 

If you want one of those don't leave it too long as by far the most popular length and mount ie. 15" light type for Husky 550,560, 346 etc

 

 

What other bars are people after? (bear in mind have to order x30 a time) - was going to get 18" for 372s (already have 20"), 12" and 14" for the new Husky top handled, 10" carving bar for MS150 (that will run the new Stihl 1/4" .043 chain)...

 

 

 

... any other suggestions? Will do a separate thread on this over Xmas..

Good stuff - I'll be weighing the bars over Xmas to compare the pro bars with the light type bars.

Are the light weight ones just as strong as the solid design Rob? If so I might take a 28" husky mount for my 385.

[LumberJake]

I think i'll get one of the resin ones tho, they look nicer IMO

If I might butt in here I put a light weight 28" on my 390 and it is better quality than the Oregon prolite that came off and lighter in weight making it less nose heavy .
