Description
Overview:
This Genuine Stihl carving chain is a 12" (30 cm) loop designed for precise control on small-diameter wood and fine detailing. Built from robust steel with precision-ground cutters, it uses Stihl's Rapid Micro Special (RMS) profile for smooth, low‐vibration cutting and faster boring. The chain specification is 1/4" pitch (6.35 mm), 0.050" (1.3 mm) gauge, with 64 drive links, and it is intended to run on compatible carving guide bars such as Stihl 3005 000 3205. Suitable for compact Stihl chainsaws including the MS 170 and MS 180, this loop supports accurate plunge cuts and shaping where a narrow kerf and controlled feed are essential. A dependable choice for wood carvers, arborists and maintenance crews needing clean, consistent results.
