The Stihl RM Rapid Micro 16 inch (40 cm) chainsaw chain is a genuine OEM replacement part engineered for efficient, stable cutting. Built with a 3/8″ (9.53 mm) pitch, .063″ (1.6 mm) gauge, and 60 drive links, it matches many 40 cm guide bars specified for this setup.
Manufactured from alloy steel with hardened, chrome-plated cutters, this RM semi-chisel profile delivers a balance of speed, durability, and ease of sharpening. The riveted joints resist stretch, helping maintain chain tension during extended use. Suitable for both professional and domestic users, this loop ensures smooth cutting performance in clean or slightly dirty timber.
