Fifchall 18 inch chainsaw guide bar and 3-pack 3/8 in LP chains .050 in gauge 62-link low-kickback

Fifchall’s 18-inch guide bar paired with three 3/8" LP, .050" gauge chains (62 drive links) is a complete replacement kit designed to fit many popular 18" chainsaws and pole saws for smooth, low-kickback cutting.

This kit bundles an 18-inch hardened guide bar with three matching low-profile chains built to ANSI kickback performance levels, making it a cost-effective spare-and-replace solution for homeowners, landscapers, and equipment shops. The specification — 3/8" LP pitch, .050" gauge and 62 drive links — matches a wide range of 18" saws from brands such as Husqvarna-compatible models, Echo, Poulan, Craftsman and others. The product aims to deliver reliable cutting, reduced vibration, and extended runtime between chain replacements when properly matched and maintained.

Will this 18" bar and chain set fit my saw?

Compatibility depends on four measurements: bar length, pitch, gauge and number of drive links. Confirm your existing bar length is 18 inches, check the chain pitch is 3/8" low profile (LP), the gauge is .050" (1.3 mm), and you need 62 drive links.

• Bar length: 18 inches (measured from tip to where it enters the housing).
• Chain pitch: 3/8" LP — fits many consumer and pro saws using low-profile chains.
• Gauge: .050" (1.3 mm) thickness — matches your chain sprocket/drive link width.
• Drive links: 62 — count links or check manual/spec plate.

How does the kit perform when cutting wood?

The chains are designed for smooth, efficient cutting with reduced kickback and lower vibration than full-profile alternatives. That combination helps you maintain control during routine pruning, limb cutting, or firewood tasks without sacrificing cut speed for typical homeowner and light-professional workloads.

• Low-kickback cutters for safer handling during common cuts.
• Reduced vibration to lower user fatigue on longer jobs.
• Designed for quick, clean cuts in green and dry wood typical of landscape work.

What maintenance or adjustments are required after installation?

After fitting the bar and chain, tension the chain correctly and check lubrication before each use. Regular sharpening, correct chain tension, and proper bar-rail cleaning extend life and preserve cutting performance.

• Tension: set when cold with a small amount of sag removed from the underside.
• Lubrication: keep the bar oil reservoir topped up and ensure oiling holes are clear.
• Sharpening: file or use a round sharpening tool to maintain tooth geometry when dull.
• Inspection: check drive links and sprocket engagement and replace if worn.

Which saw models are explicitly compatible?

The kit is specified to work with many common 18" models from popular manufacturers, making it a convenient cross-compatible option if your saw uses those four matching measurements. Always cross-check your model number or owner’s manual to confirm full compatibility.

• Craftsman/Sears models including 316.38090 and several 358-series part numbers.
• Echo models such as CS-352, CS-346, CS-370, CS-400, CS-2800.
• Homelite, McCulloch, Poulan, Remington and Kobalt models listed in product specs.

Who this is for: This Fifchall 18" guide bar plus three chains kit suits homeowners who want spares on hand, small landscaping crews needing inexpensive replacements, and service shops stocking common-fit chains. If your saw matches the 3/8" LP pitch, .050" gauge and 62 drive links, this package delivers a ready-to-install bar and multiple chains for ongoing maintenance and uninterrupted cutting tasks.
