What 72 dl .325 k 095 bar would you run?
I'm using .325 more on ported 346s' and liking it.I didn't think I'd like .325 chain on my 5100s but turns out I do.
Wish I'd bought a better bar but hindsight's 20-20.
Wonder how the sugi compares weight wise to the pro lite?

Sugihara are somewhat like Cannon: they are built to last and perform in difficult conditions hence weight comes after durability.
If weight is a major concern for you, perhaps you should give Tsumura a look. I know they make some 20" bars in .325" but I don't remember what mounts are available in that format.
I'll have to weight them, but an 18" Lite Sugihara feels heavier than a 18" Oregon ProLite. Damn good bars though.Are you referring to the standard sugihara bar? Because their lite bar with polymer injections is considerably lighter than a standard bar.
The reason I was wanting to know is my saw came with a 64 DL ProLite that has been a good bar and balances well.I'll have to weight them, but an 18" Lite Sugihara feels heavier than a 18" Oregon ProLite. Damn good bars though.
Yeah, I see. I've pretty much stopped running 16" bars on 50cc saws. I just like the extra reach of 18" (72 DL) better & .325 works well in this length. The bars I'm using the most are old new stock Sanvick/Windsor Speed Tips 18" 72DL.The reason I was wanting to know is my saw came with a 64 DL ProLite that has been a good bar and balances well.
The 18" .325 bar is the same length as the OEM 3/8ths but, as you know, has more grunt with the smaller rim.
That's close. I guessed the solid bar would be heavier, even with the cut outs.I did feel like taking the 18" bars off saws, so I weighed 16" bars.
Didn't have a 16" ProLite, but the Husky should be very close.
Sugihara 16" .325 .058 gauge; 1.52 lb
Husky laminated 16" .325 .058 gauge; 1.46 lb
A power match bar would be heavier. But the laminated ones are pretty light.That's close. I guessed the solid bar would be heavier, even with the cut outs.
Well the software wouldn't let me say what I wanted.Are you fn kidding me?You azzwipes actually weigh your bars get real folks LMFAO
I like that new Oregon laminated bar, the speed cut, but it looks like NK only for now?A power match bar would be heavier. But the laminated ones are pretty light.
That just makes it lighter. You can run regular .325 on it.I like that new Oregon laminated bar, the speed cut, but it looks like NK only for now?
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.That just makes it lighter. You can run regular .325 on it.

Not good. I don't know how the speed cuts are going to hold up, but I bet they're better than that.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.
