Never looked at it like that.The wider dl can push more oil to the end. It makes a difference in oiling. I've almost switched to all .063" gauge bars because of it.

Can you put more stuff into a .013" wider groove? More space for oil if the oiler can feed it to carry it around the bar.I can count on both hands the amount of times I've needed to run the 36" bars I've had, so I'll accept it. Still doesn't make any sense to me though. LOL
We run 3/8 pitch, 063 gauge, 36" bars all the time with Stihl MS 660. When I drink a Bud Light in the evening and accidentally count to 105 instead of 114, I drop down to a 32" bar for a slight change of pace the next day.Can you put more stuff into a .013" wider groove?

The 36" .050" is used for people who want the same chains for all lengths.
Right - and I can't imagine that a 0.050" bar groove would not be able to flow that much oil easily. Maybe if it gets packed with chips it's a limitation?The hole on the bar and oiler output is what is limiting that. Most of those oilers are only putting out a few cc in a second.
Whats wrong with a 32 ?

The 0.063 is a ***** to sharpen tho. Had to buy heavy duty files.
If the rail were empty, maybe so, but it's full of drive link and the pump output is the same regardless. In truth I don't know either. Just doesn't seem logical to me.
.063 gauge bar = .063 gauge chain. Explain how there is anymore room in the channel of a .063 gauge bar when it has a larger chain running thru it? Doesn't make much sense.
