Sold Loops of Stihl 33 RSF

[atpchas]

I have more Stihl 33 RSF (3/8"x.050", chisel, full skip) chain than I can use. I'm offering loops made to order for about 20 cents per drive link. That translates to the following prices for some standard sizes:
$14.40 for 72 DL
$16.80 for 84 DL
$18.20 for 91 DL
$21.00 for 105 DL

Shipping is additional. USPS priority mail flat rate boxes can hold several loops (of course the exact number depends on # of DLs) and ship for $5.80. I'll do everything I can to keep the shipping to a minimum.

How does it compare to say rsc. I understand its skip but on a 32" bar on a ported 461 for occasional use would it be better with rsf?

 

[atpchas]

I've never compared chains that way. I'm a casual cutter and just happened to get a decent buy on the rsf that I thought I'd share with the community. My reading suggests two considerations: (1) skip can be faster than full comp with bar lengths that are at or near the upper limit for the powerhead and (2) any time lost, if the skip is slower, is more than made up by having to sharpen far fewer teeth. The second is the primary appeal that skip has for me. Hope that helps.

If you want to sharpen less cutters it will be good. Cutting speed will be close on that bar length.

I just recalculated and realized I had more margin than I'd thought - price dropped from 22¢/DL to 20¢/DL.

Charlie, that's a darn good buy. Please put me down for 2 72 DL and 2 84 DL. Those will be good chains for my volunteer trail crew.
I'll PM you the shipping address.

I'm afraid the cost to ship to Australia would be prohibitive. I may be misreading the rates, but it appears to cost more than $30 to ship a couple chains. If someone with international shipping experience knows a way to get/keep the cost down, please jump in and share.

Roger,thought that my be the case.Anyone holidaying in Perth soon?
Haha cheers anyway.

Can you do 114 dl?

 

[atpchas]

No problem with 114 DLs - how many do you want? I'm pretty sure three loops will fit in a small flat rate box.

 

[LowVolt]

I am thinking just one. How much are they each?

 

[atpchas]

Loops are 20 cents per link plus shipping. AFAIK, USPS flat rate boxes are the least expensive option. So one loop with 114 DLs is $22.80 + $5.80 makes $28.60. A second or third loop (doesn't have to be the same length) would effectively ship for free, just pay for the chain. There's room in the box for roughly 350 drive links.

 

[MuskokaSplitter]

i bet shipping to Canada is worse than Australia LOL
if not im very interested in a few 91dl and 105dl.

 

[Jon1212]

Hi Charlie. PM inbound for some loops.

 

[sawfun]

Please pm me for some 91 and 93 loops.

 

[redoakneck]

PM sent. Skip chain shines when you need chip clearance

I've run both RS& RSF on my stock MS 461in hardwoods. Not huge difference in cutting time and neither one seemed to bog down easier. Definitely faster to sharpen the F.

Thanks Charlie got it today
