What's a 3/4 wrap handle?
Well, what most people call a “full wrap” only covers three fourths of the saw. Some old school saws had a handle that actually wrapped all the way around the power head. Hence full wrap.
Well I've run 1 and 2 series since the 80s
We call them
fullwraps here.
I haven't made one for a 266 yet
But it just took a few minutes to modify a 30.00 oem Husqvarna
372xt wrap for this 272
Just add a second bottom hole for the fastener.
And bend the down tube towards
The saw body to clear the clutch cover.
And bend it into the tank recess
The fasteners line up.
Guy's are wanting stupid money for fullwraps now.
I prefer the 372 wraps they clear the bar nuts and are more comfortable to me.

Yeah I should have just said full wrap. Everyone pretty much knows what that is.
Blowing the dust off this one, still looking for a full wrap. Trying to help a friend find one.
Wow. That looks really good. If you hadn’t told me It was custom made I’d have thought it to be factory.
Yea i was surprised how well they were made , the fitment and hole location was spot on .
I bought one too probably from the same member
Nice wraps I don't know if he still sells them or not.
Ha , yea looks like the same .
Pro safety makes 268/272 wraps now but they are 200.00
Nice wraps I have a 288 pro safety.
I don't know if anyone will ever mass produce 266 wraps or not
Vintage saw and all.

The OEM 365/372xp was only 40,00 when I bought it
Yeah I figured as much. I’m considering a pro safety full wrap for my 036 Pro.
I prefer the grip and angle of the 372 wraps compared to oe 266 wraps
I don't care if they have to be fit to the saw they work perfectly I've cut a couple years with them
No downside for me.
Actually they were 29.00 when husky dropped the price on them a few years ago I bought 10 for myself and customers saws.
I have a couple 572 wraps I might try to mount on something.
