Description
Overview:
The 3/8" Depth Gauge for Stihl Chainsaws is a Genuine Stihl part designed to set and check the depth (raker) height on chains fitted with a 3/8 inch pitch. This ensures the chain removes the right amount of wood for smooth, efficient cutting and safer operation. Made from durable steel, the gauge provides a stable reference surface when used with a suitable flat file. It is intended for routine chain maintenance across a wide range of Stihl petrol and battery chainsaws that run 3/8" (9.53 mm) pitch chains. By helping you keep cutters and depth gauges in balance, it supports consistent performance, reduces vibration, and can prolong chain life. Manufacturer Part Number (MPN): 0000 893 4009.
