A .043 gauge loop at 52 drive links, honed sharp and ready to fit.
Archer builds this chain from nickel alloy Japanese steel with hard industrial chrome-plated cutters, then shot-peens every link for extra tensile strength before it leaves the factory already honed. That's the difference between a chain you can fit and start cutting with, and one you have to touch up first.
Pitch is 3/8 inch low profile, semi-chisel cut, in the .043 gauge that suits lighter homeowner-class saws. Check your bar and drive sprocket match before fitting. Get the pitch or gauge wrong and the chain won't sit right no matter how sharp the cutters are.
It costs a bit more than a bargain-bin loop, but you're paying for cutters that hold their edge in dry, gritty timber instead of going blunt halfway through the job, and shot-peened links that resist stretching under load.
Full spec and drive link count are in the tabs below.
