if these TCT cutters are the same 'TCT' the blades use then they would be cactus with the 'odd nail etc'. The only benefit behind TCT slabbing chain would be the longer life in 'clean' timber and against 'nails etc' it would be useless.
Normal chain doesn't mind the odd nail, you just give 'em a touch up and off you go again, with TCT chain the cutters would just shatter... no more chain:(
dont have his price list why not ring him ? 1800 027 989 he is in nsw , cockroach country . just ordered a couple of file plates . the lucas guy has been doing workshops up here , worth attending if you want to learn , and looked a smart way to get the depth gauges right . cheers bob
If you sharpen the chain enough times it will end up a skip chain. And they do cut slower

That's because those rakers are way too high - I can see that from here. At those gullet widths those rakers should be more than 0.05" lower than the cutters. Try it, it will be cutting like a new chain!Quote:

Alternatively you can buy 404 chassis with no cutters and make up your own configurations. I found the 27RX to excell in log dia greater than 700. Sometimes I would use full chisel 404cutters at 5 degrees for really tough stuff, but the semi chisel seems to do almost as well.My depth gaufes would be 35-40 thou.

Sorry Allan, yes he might a Stihl dealer but he is talking about Oregon chain. Will find out if hes for real and let you boys know:2tsup:
What chain is GB selling - it says made in USA??:?
We have a large stock of the 27RX chain and pretty much every other chain from Oregon.
If you want to buy a real we have it for £295-00 which works out at $380-00 US.

It may be easier to buy off ebay here as the shipping is better and it tells you exactly what you'll pay but cost is higher due to ebay fees. If you want x2 reels or more we can do you a better price.
