AWTOOLS AW72001 16 inch (40 cm) 3/8 inch Low Profile Semi-Chisel Chainsaw Chain, 57 Drive Links, 1.3 mm Gauge, Fits Electric & Petrol Saws, Anti-Kickback, Hardened Steel, Blister Pack

Unlike generic chains that wear quickly and dull fast, the AWTOOLS AW72001 is a replacement chain engineered for consistent cutting performance on 16-inch (40 cm) guide bars. Its 3/8" low-profile pitch and 1.3 mm (0.050") gauge ensure a precise fit on many electric and petrol chainsaws, while the semi-chisel tooth design balances cutting speed with edge retention in general-purpose wood cutting. The hardened steel construction and anti-kickback features make it a reliable choice for both occasional users and professionals who need a durable, ready-to-install chain.

Highlights

• Compatible with 16" (40 cm) bars; 57 drive links for exact fit
• 3/8" low-profile pitch, 1.3 mm (0.050") gauge – matches common consumer saws
• Semi-chisel teeth: efficient cutting, easier sharpening, longer intervals between touch-ups
• Anti-kickback design reduces risk of sudden upward bar movement
• Hardened steel with corrosion resistance for extended service life
• Oil channels ensure proper lubrication to bar and chain
• Supplied in a protective blister pack, ready for storage or retail display

In daily use

Installing the AW72001 is straightforward: release the bar tension, remove the old chain, and fit the new one around the bar and sprocket, making sure the cutting edges face the correct direction. Adjust tension until the chain snaps back when pulled lightly, then check that it rotates freely by hand. The low-profile design reduces vibration and cutting effort, making it suitable for pruning, limbing, and light felling. The semi-chisel cutters are more tolerant of dirty or slightly frozen wood than full-chisel chains, so you can keep working in less-than-ideal conditions. Regular oiling is essential – the chain’s oil channels help distribute lubricant evenly, but always verify your saw’s oiler is functioning before each session.
