SUNGATOR 2-PCS 8" Chainsaw Chain, 3/8" LP Pitch .043" Gauge, 34 Drive Links

I bought this chain for my Vintage Homelite XL12 due to the price since I use my saw only occasionally. It fit my vintage, 1960s, Homelite XL12 that I got from by brother-in-law's father's estate when he died. It needed just about everything on the exterior so I rebuilt it 20 years ago. I cleaned out the filth and dirt. I put on a new clutch and chain. I adjusted the magneto and cleaned (but did not rebuild) the carb. I put on a new fuel line and filter and a new plug. I was told by a Homelite mechanic that this is the best chainsaw ever built (up to that time) and, after checking it out and showing me how to tune it, he said it would outlast all of us. Well, my brother-in-law died 5 years ago. The mechanic died a few years later and his wife died shortly thereafter. My sister-in-law died last year. Things are not looking good for me but the saw is still running strong and starts on the third pull every time. Not something I can say about myself. I am 85 and my only purpose in life is to keep this little "HOMEY" running well for as long as I can. I think of it as my longevity plan. I put this chain on the saw and it went on easily and was a perfect fit except for a little play in the bar groove. I think that's due to wear in the groove because the one I took off measured .050" with a micrometer just like the new one and was a little loose, too. I fueled it up and I took it out to do some trimming on some rangy roots and limbs on a Lilac bush at the church. It is scary sharp and cuts like crazy. I am very impressed with the chain and the way it worked. It was a little noisy but I think that's due to the play in the bar groove. But it ran smoothly and true and cut like a banshee. It ran cool and did not overheat. It did not feel like it wanted to kick back. When I was done, it seemed as sharp as it was when I started cutting. After the second use a week later, the chain was a little slack so I had to tighten the bar adjustment screw 1/3 of a turn when I was done. But it still cuts fine. I do recommend this chain - 100%. It's a good value for what you get.

These have been excellent on my Husqvarna 445, and the price is excellent. No complaints!

Works great. Lasted a lot longer than I expected for the price. Fits exactly as the OEM replacement chains. Definitely great for cutting anything and not have to worry about the cost to replace again.

Have bought these multiple times for both my Echo and Husqvarna 18” chain saws. They cut great and last a good while. I used to go to the trouble of having my chains resharpened, but at this price point I just change them out and save the time and trouble. Never had an issue. Well made.

Good quality chain

I have bought this chain and brand in the past and it has worked great and last a long time. Great price and free shipping make it hard to beat.

For 16-Inch, SG-S56, 3/8" LP Pitch - .050" Gauge - 56 Drive Links. I'm very pleased with these chains and I'm still using the first one I installed several months ago. Now I'm no lumberjack, but there are small trees, old bushes, and old crepe myrtles on my property that I have to address every year, and I usually destroy my chains before I'm even halfway through my yard. But THIS set has been performing amazingly well, and I'm still using the first chain (of the set of three). Still sharp, doesn't need adjustment too much (not stretching), and it just runs very smoothly in the bar. I do make sure to keep my bar oiler full, but that's the only thing I do. Also, I store my saw Upside-Down so the bar oil doesn't puddle under the saw, while it sits for months, during most of the year. I strongly recommend this chain set: SUNGATOR 16-Inch, SG-S56, 3/8" LP Pitch - .050" Gauge - 56 Drive Links.

These chainsaw drive links fit properly and help maintain consistent chain performance. They feel sturdy and work well when replacing worn or damaged links. Installation requires careful matching to the correct chain type. Overall, they are a dependable replacement option for keeping chainsaw operation smooth and safe.
