Need help to ID a type of chain

[1Alpha1]

When it comes to types of chains, I'm still learning. What kind or type is the chain below? I went to the Stihl site and it wasn't a lot of help to me.

TIA!

Not sure what info you are looking for but its a Picco Micro chain with semi chisel cutters. The yellow indicates it lacks low kickback protection. This is what I would set up an MS180 with for a 16" bar. We aware in the picco line there is the .043 and the .050 gauge for bars. This is the .050.

Edit I see you have a 241. This would be the ideal chain for that saw. It has the power to pull a 16". That's exactly the setup I wish I had for doing trail clearing.

I don't want to stay with a green chain, such as the one that came on my MS-241C-M.

I want something more aggressive. That would be a yellow marked chain. Just curious as to the type pictured.

Thank-you very much! I have a chance to pick up some at a very good price. I just wanted to make sure that I was pointed in the right direction.

Yeah......I went to that link at least twice and it really doesn't tell you the differences between the types of chain. I specifically was looking for the descriptions of the yellow branded chains and their appropriate part numbers.

If it doesn’t have to be Stihl chain then Oregon would be 91vxl055.

Yeah, it was a way back. Now the models are pmc3 or 100 different variations of just regular pm chain

The reduced kickback version ('green') of that chain would be '63PM3'. Chains lacking a numeral in that location do not have the kickback reducing features ('yellow').

Here is the current bar/chain catalog.

16” Picco chain for a 3005 mount like an MS200T.

Yeah, that is why I just put up the whole damn thing!!!
I ain't got that kind of time!! Gettin' too old!!

I haven't noticed the straight 63pm chain for a long time. I don't think our region carries it anymore. I think it is pmc or something like that. The dealer that I buy my saws from doesn't know what he orders, so I just settle for what comes on the new units for my business thing.
