14 inch

14 inch covers chainsaw chains and bars sized for shorter-reach saws, the kind typically used for pruning, firewood cutting and general property maintenance rather than felling large trees. A 14 inch bar keeps the saw lighter and easier to control, which suits smaller petrol or electric chainsaws.

Chain pitch and gauge still need to match your saw even at this bar length, so check those specs on your current chain or bar before buying a replacement, such as the 1/4 inch pitch.050 gauge chain that fits saws like the Echo CS280 and CS341.

Frequently asked questions

What is a 14 inch chainsaw bar best used for?

A 14 inch bar suits lighter jobs like pruning, trimming and cutting smaller firewood, where a shorter, lighter bar makes the saw easier to handle.

How do I match a replacement chain to my 14 inch bar?

Check the chain's pitch and gauge against what's stamped on your current bar or chain, for example 1/4 inch pitch and .050 gauge, to make sure it fits correctly.
