PruningMaintenance

This Husqvarna 10 in pole saw bar takes a 40 drive link chain and is listed for Husqvarna battery-powered pole saws. Swap it in when the rails are worn, spread, or bent so your pole saw cuts straight again.

When to replace a pole saw bar

Pole saw bars take abuse from reaching into tight crotches and getting pinched in hangers. Worn or spread rails let the chain lean, which makes the saw cut crooked and wear unevenly. A bent bar or a damaged nose sprocket is another reason to swap it.

A fresh bar plus a fresh chain brings a tired pole saw back to clean, straight cuts. Browse other chainsaw bars for different lengths.

Battery pole saws are a favorite for pruning from the ground, raising canopies over driveways, and clearing small limbs without a ladder. A fresh bar keeps the cut straight, which matters a lot when you are cutting at arm's length overhead and need the piece to drop exactly where you planned.

Matching bar, chain, and saw

Bar length, pitch, gauge, and drive link count all have to match. This bar takes a 40 drive link chain; confirm pitch and gauge against your saw's manual and the chain you plan to run.

Flip the bar regularly, keep the groove and oil hole clean, and dress burrs from the rails. Remove the battery before handling the bar or chain. Wear chainsaw protection, eye and hearing protection, and follow the operator's manual and ANSI Z133 when running or servicing a saw.
