HI STEVE thanks mate jon i will ring JUSTIN THEN THANKS JON :thumbup:

 

No worries Jon, apparently the Husky bars are a bit on the soft side, wear out fairly quick. You may want to consider a Sugihara bar for the long term. I'll be ordering a 15" Sugihara Pro when mine wears out.

 

I also got an 18" Sugihara Light type Pro bar from Rob at ChainsawBars (the one with resin infilled to reduce the weight). Decided to go with the resin bar as wanted the saw to feel as balanced as possible.

 

Hope this helps, cheers steve

Looks a nice saw might treat myself if my old 346xpg sells on the bay,

My Sugi bar for my best 346xpg lasted two weeks before it bent, thought they were indestructible?

Hopefully jones are sending me a replacement so will try that

The Sugihara bars aren't described as being indestructible but from what I can gather they are supposed to last much longer when compared with other bars.

 

Which Sugihara did you have on the 346xpg? Was it the resin one, or solid?.... ....and what happened for it to bend so soon, did you get it caught up?

 

Cheers, Steve
