Find the Right Chain for Your Husqvarna Chainsaw in Two Simple Steps

Choosing the correct chain for your Husqvarna chainsaw doesn't have to be complicated. Many Husqvarna models are available with different guide bar lengths and chain specifications, making it important to confirm exactly which chain your saw requires.

This guide makes the process simple.

First, learn how to identify the correct chain for your guide bar, then scroll down to the Husqvarna Chainsaw Chain Size Chart below to find your model.

Step 1 – Find Your Husqvarna Chainsaw Model

Scroll down to the Husqvarna Chainsaw Chain Size Chart and locate your Husqvarna model together with its guide bar length.

This will show you the recommended replacement chain for your setup.

If your model appears more than once with different gauges or drive link counts, continue to Step 2 to confirm the correct chain.

Step 2 – Check These Two Things on Your Chainsaw

Some Husqvarna chainsaws may have replacement guide bars fitted over the years. Checking these two measurements ensures you order the correct replacement chain every time.

1. Drive Links (DL)

The drive link count is the most accurate way to identify your replacement chain.

To calculate it:

• Count the cutters on your existing chain.
• Multiply that number by 2.
• The result is your Drive Link (DL) count.

Example:

22 cutters × 2 = 44 Drive Links (44DL)

If you notice one slightly larger gap between the cutters, your chain has an odd number of drive links, such as 45DL (common on models like the Husqvarna 120i).

2. Gauge

Gauge refers to the thickness of the drive links that fit inside the guide bar groove.

Look for one of these markings stamped on your guide bar near the mounting point:

• .043" (1.1mm)
• .050" (1.3mm)
• .058" (1.5mm)
• .063" (1.6mm)

Your replacement chain must have the exact same gauge as your guide bar.

If the gauge is incorrect, the chain won't fit properly.

Do You Need to Check the Pitch?

Usually, no.

Once you've confirmed the correct Drive Link count and Gauge, the chain pitch will automatically match your Husqvarna guide bar.

This makes choosing the correct replacement chain much easier.

Why This Method Is the Most Accurate

Many Husqvarna chainsaws have replacement guide bars fitted during their lifetime.

For example, a previous owner may have changed:

• A .043" guide bar to a .050" guide bar
• A .050" guide bar to a .058" guide bar
• A 14-inch bar to a 16-inch bar
• A 16-inch bar to an 18-inch bar

Because of this, relying only on the chainsaw model can sometimes result in ordering the wrong chain.

Checking your Drive Links and Gauge guarantees the correct fit every time.
