• Hump drive link (Micro 3) – significantly reduces kickback and vibrations

64 DL vs. 72 DL – Which PM3 version do I need?

The number of drive links determines the correct bar size: The PM3 with 64 DL is designed for shorter bars and fits more compact top-handle saws and pole pruners with shorter guide bars. The PM3 with 72 DL is suitable for longer bars in the same equipment category. Please always check the drive link count of your existing bar before ordering a replacement chain.

Important note on compatibility

The 1/4" pitch is a special pitch for lightweight top-handle saws and pole pruners. This chain is not compatible with standard chainsaws such as the MS 162, MS 271, MS 362, or MS 462, which use a 3/8" pitch. Please check the pitch, groove width, and drive link count of your existing bar before purchasing.

Who is the PM3 64 DL suitable for?

Ideal for arborists, forestry workers, and garden owners looking for a replacement chain for their compact STIHL top-handle saw or pole pruner with a shorter bar.
