Had to work late, didn`t get to the saws yet so it will be tomorrow before I can check them over and take picts before starting to clean them grubby buggers up. The 025 does not have a chain, guy said he put it on one of the 026`s, have to figure out which one. Usually 025 has that 3/8 Picco on them and the 026`s usually have .325 on them.
I see more 025s with .325 than Picco .
I figure if the chain fit it must be .325, no idea what gauge it is, tomorrow will tell. I have lots of .325 chain in .058
Maybe 050 ?
Most of the new bars over here are .050 , it takes some wearing/use before the .058 will fit in. I also have a bunch of .063 in 20" loops, don`t have any bars in .063.
Don't see much in .063 . Lot of Husky bars are .058 . Them dang little 170/180 bars are usually .043. All my chain in Picco is .050 !

All the 025/250s around here come with .325-.063... As do most of the 026/260 saws.
Rarely you'll see .058 set come through but no one stocks the chain local. I try to get everything to .050 for simplicity. The only .063 I willingly bought was on the 37" bar.

.050 is most common here for Stihl .325 while 3/8" can be .050 or ,063 depending on which dealer yo go to. 3/8 Picco is usually .050 also. When I want another pitch I find it through eBay. Years ago I picked up a lot of chain from closing out business before it all got sold off and now all chain listed on ebay are way overpriced.
I look for partial spools of chain on the bay . Don't find much tho !
