The Stihl 16″ (40 cm) RS Rapid Super chain is a genuine OEM replacement engineered for high performance and durability. Built from hardened steel with chrome-plated, full-chisel cutters and strong rivets, it delivers fast, precise cuts in clean wood with smooth chip flow. This loop has 62 drive links, a .325″ pitch (≈8.25 mm), and a .063″ (1.6 mm) gauge, making it the correct match for bars and sprockets stamped with these specifications.
With a low-vibration cutter design, the chain reduces operator fatigue while maintaining aggressive cutting speed, making it an excellent choice for forestry professionals, arborists, and serious DIYers. OEM Reference: 36390030062.
