FAQ's

How do I know which chain to buy for my chainsaw?

Choosing the right chainsaw chain starts with knowing three key measurements: pitch, gauge, and the number of drive links. These specs are usually printed on your chainsaw bar or listed in the owner’s manual. The pitch refers to the distance between the chain’s links, the gauge is the thickness of the drive links, and the number of drive links ensures the chain fits your bar length correctly. If you’re unsure, the team at Green Acres Mowers is always happy to help you find a compatible replacement chain. We stock a wide range of high-quality chains to suit most major brands, making it easy to get the perfect match for your saw.

What is the best cutting chain for a chainsaw?

The best cutting chain for your chainsaw depends on what type of cutting you’re doing. Full chisel chains are great for fast, aggressive cutting in clean wood, while semi-chisel chains are slightly slower but hold their edge longer—perfect for working in dirty or hardwood conditions. Low-kickback chains are ideal for beginners or general home use, offering added safety without sacrificing performance. At Green Acres Mowers, we offer a variety of cutting chains designed for speed, durability, and smooth performance, helping you get the job done right every time.

Why does my chainsaw chain dull so quickly?

Chainsaw chains can dull quickly for a few reasons, including hitting dirt, rocks, or nails while cutting. Even just brushing the ground once can dramatically reduce a chain’s sharpness. Cutting dirty wood, using the wrong chain type, or operating with low chain oil can also lead to faster wear. To prolong the life of your chain, keep it properly tensioned, sharpen it regularly, and avoid contact with debris. If you find your chain dulls too fast despite regular care, it might be time to switch to a more durable or appropriate chain for your cutting tasks—something we’re happy to help with here at Green Acres Mowers.

What are the parts of a chainsaw chain called?

A chainsaw chain is made up of several key components that work together to create a smooth, efficient cut. These include the drive links, which fit into the guide bar; the cutters, which actually do the cutting; and the tie straps, which hold everything together. High-quality chains feature precisely engineered cutters for cleaner cuts, reduced vibration, and longer life. At Green Acres Mowers, we stock a wide selection of premium chains designed to deliver reliable performance for all your cutting needs.

Will any chainsaw chain fit any chainsaw?

Not all chains are one-size-fits-all. Each chainsaw requires a chain that matches its specific bar length, pitch, and gauge. Using the wrong chain can lead to poor performance, faster wear, and even safety issues. Green Acres Mowers makes it easy to find the perfect match—simply consult your owner’s manual or reach out to our knowledgeable team. We’ll help you select a compatible chain for your model, ensuring you get the best cutting performance and longevity.
