Does anyone know if the files for square ground chain from baileys are the same as the ones for the stihl L grind chain?

I haven't ever seen a Stihl L grind chain so I don't know, but I doubt it.

Yep the files at Baileys will work just fine.

Andy, L is the designation Stihl gives their square chain (RSLK, RSLF, etc)

Ok,
I guess I need to get out of the woods more often.

For square ground chains, I use a double bevel flat file like this...

Here are square ground filing instructions. On page 2 at the bottom is a profile view of what a double bevel file looks like...
