How the Oregon® Guide Bar Part Numbering System Works Oregon guide bar part numbers are printed on the bar package and etched on the bar body. Here’s what each digit means:
DuraCut™ formerly Armor Tip AT = Solid nose, laser welded tip with wear-resistant alloy
Occasional User Bar Codes AdvanceCut™
SX = Sprocket-nose PX = Sprocket-nose GD = Sprocket-nose with Guard Mate holes ML = Narrow kerf sprocket-nose SF = Sprocket-nose
Single Rivet
SD = Sprocket-nose DG = Sprocket-nose with Guard Mate holes ML = Narrow kerf sprocket-nose
Comments: •
In a few cases, where two bars would have the same length in their part numbers but different drive link counts, the letter Z will be used in the bar mount description to distinguish between them (K095 and Z095 for example).
• Chain saws originally equipped with an Intenz® bar, and saws adapted to take an Intenz® bar, do not have a “bar adjustment pin” for tensioning the chain. Use ONLY an Intenz bar when replacing the guide bar on these saws. See page FOR for important information on Intenz bars.
• PowerCut solid body bars may be stamped with XXX, ZZZ or other letters as they can have different noses installed on the body, thereby changing the part number.
