Oregon professional bench chain grinder with hydraulic clamping — 120V, hands-free vice, 3 profile wheels

The Oregon Professional Hydraulic Clamping 120-Volt Bench Chain Grinder is a heavy-duty saw chain sharpener with hands-free hydraulic vice clamping and three precision grinding profiles for most chains up to .404" pitch.

Built for professionals and serious DIYers, this Oregon bench and wall-mount grinder streamlines routine chainsaw maintenance with a one-way motor for safer operation and a hydraulic-assist clamp that secures chain links without constant manual pressure. The unit ships with three grinding wheels to cover common cutter radiuses and a flat wheel for depth gauge work, plus a profile guide and dressing brick to keep wheels accurate. Rugged components and carefully chosen wheel profiles reduce cutter burning and deliver repeatable, factory-style edges.

How does the hydraulic clamping make sharpening easier?

The hydraulic-assisted vice holds the chain firmly and releases automatically, letting you position cutters without struggling to keep tension. That hands-free clamping increases repeatability and reduces user fatigue when sharpening many chains.

• Automatic, hands-free vice actuation for consistent clamping pressure
• Speeds up batch sharpening tasks in busy workshops
• Improves safety by minimizing hand contact near grinding wheels

Which chain types and pitches can this grinder handle?

This Oregon grinder accepts a wide range of saw chain pitches, from small hobby chains to professional sizes up to .404" pitch. Included wheel sizes and the adjustable guide let you match the correct radius for 1/4", 3/8" low-profile, .325", 3/8" pro and .404" chains.

• 3.2mm radius disc for 1/4", 3/8" low-profile and .325" chains
• 4.7mm radius disc for 3/8" pro and .404" pitch chains
• 6.0mm flat disc for depth gauge maintenance and consistent raker heights

How accurate and repeatable are the sharpening results?

Precision comes from a combination of multiple adjustment points, the included profile guide and a built-in light for clear visibility. Oregon’s wheels are formulated to resist heat buildup, helping prevent cutter burning and maintaining edge geometry across many passes.

• Fine adjustments let you set consistent cutter angles and depths
• Profile guide ensures the correct radius on every cutter
• Integrated work light improves visibility for precise alignment

What comes in the package and how is it mounted?

The package includes the bench grinder with hydraulic vice, a dressing brick and profile guide, two sharpening wheels (3.2mm and 4.7mm radii), a 6.0mm flat wheel for depth gauges, and operator instructions. The grinder mounts to a bench or wall using the supplied bolts for flexible workshop placement.

• Complete sharpening kit: grinder, wheels, dressing brick, profile guide, instructions
• Bench- or wall-mountable with two included bolts for secure installation
