Description
Overview:
The RM Rapid Micro Chain 1.6mm (0.063 inches) is a high-quality replacement saw chain for Stihl chainsaws and cutting tools that specify a 1.6mm gauge. Built from durable steel with precision-ground cutters, it delivers smooth, accurate cutting in hardwood, softwood, and green timber. The micro (semi‐chisel) cutter profile balances cutting speed with ease of maintenance, making it suitable for both professional trades and domestic users. Supplied as Stihl part 3686 000 0081, this chain is designed to provide consistent performance when correctly tensioned and lubricated. It is intended for tools that require a 1.6mm (.063) bar and matching drive sprocket. Always match gauge, pitch, and the correct drive-link count to your guide bar and sprocket before fitting.
