There is YouTube video where a guy weighs a (either 18" or 20" ) factory Husqvarna bar vs the same size sugihara lite bar. The sugi lite bar was a half pound lighter. I would think the weight savings increases as the bar size does, more room for polymer insertsI'll have to weight them, but an 18" Lite Sugihara feels heavier than a 18" Oregon ProLite. Damn good bars though.
Definitely more weight savings in longer bars, I only have 16 & 18" right now. Also big diff between laminated & replaceable tip Husky/Oregon bars.There is YouTube video where a guy weighs a (either 18" or 20" ) factory Husqvarna bar vs the same size sugihara lite bar.

The ml code is like the double guard and the mp code is like the pro lite, I get lost as they changed the naming a few years ago but the code is still the same. The small nose sprocket leads to what you note.The cheap bar I bought is a narrow kerf (MicroLite) Oregon and is showing a lot of wear just where the rails meet the sprocket.
I'm not complaining because it was on sale and cheap, plus my thinking was it would be lighter. This is the 2nd lpx chain the bar's had on it and it won't last for a 3rd.
It's a small saw, the weight thing is about balance, not how strong ya are.Just work out a little more and put a Cannon on it.
Laughing my azz off this morning.
Ya know this is the first time I've weighted bars & the first time being called "You azzwipes"
Well, I think I just might do that!Well, get off your lazy azz and weigh the 18" bars, dangit!
I think you hit it on the nose, (how bout my pun and stuff), it's a 10 tooth sprocket. I have a plain wrapper 16" with an 11 tooth that shows no wear at all and it's been used more.The ml code is like the double guard and the mp code is like the pro lite, I get lost as they changed the naming a few years ago but the code is still the same.

As to the original question here, I have not noticed discussion of 10 vs 13 nose sprockets. A stellite tipped solid bar generally seems to fit the drive links quite well. I guess I will let them buy me one of those aluminum cored laminated bars. Perhaps charge on the account? I will experiment plunge cutting with the chain I plan on using before finalizing the nose size.
