Sugihara 1/4 .043 chain for the MS150s - drive sprocket not an issue

[Rob D]

People are asking do they need to change the drive sprocket on the MS150T and MS150C-E to the Sugi chain.

 

 

 

 

No you don't! It is the nose end that there is the cross over issue between Stihl bars and chains and Sugi bars and chains as below....

 

 

 

 

The Sugi bar and chain combo we well go straight onto the MS150T and MS150C-E.

Ok I made a bit of a cock up here so apologies! It turns out the Sugihara chain does not go around the MS150T drive sprocket! (and it don't go round the nose sprocket of the Stihl 1/4 .043 bars neither!!)

 

 

 

 

We have not sold many and we are removing the Sugi bar and chain option for the MS150T.

 

 

 

 

If you bought one we will either refund or you could put this on another small Stihl saw (strangely it is only the MS150 drive sprocket that will not accept the chain - all the other 1/4 drive sprockets both Stihl and Oregon run it fine).

 

 

 

 

So to summarise - with the MS150T - you can only use the Stihl sprocket nose bar and chain (either 10" or 12"). There are no other options I'm aware of.

This shows why the chains will not run on the other manufacturers bar.
