Oregon 20" Bar & Chainsaw Chain Combo, 3/8", .050" Gauge, 70 Drive Links

Wow, cuts better than other chains at lower the price.

I have a big bruiser 24-in echo chainsaw. I wanted a shorter bar and chain for those times when I don't need the full length in order to bring the weight down a little bit. This fits and functions perfectly. The quality is excellent and I'm happy to have it.

This chain saw is ceca 1984 Poulan-made, craftsman for which parts are almost non-existent. This chain/bar set will replace 358/530/952-44296 bar and 358/530/952-51262 chain. The bar's quality supports the chain for now but it is not the quality of the OEM part. Although Oregon indicates this bar is anti-kickback, it's not nearly as good as the OEM bar. This bar is designed for an either side install; doesn't have the curved end as does the OEM which may account for the kickback; is harder to control when cutting upwards; is about 1/4 inch longer than the OEM so on this saw it makes it harder to remove the chain since the back of the bar jams against the sprocket otherwise, it works. The chain is excellent! I cut 22+ inch logs (Beech tree felled by a storm) 'like butter'. My old saw was and is a workhorse. Too bad I can't find a replacement carburetor for it but, I keep it running. All in all, a good bang for the bucks.

An excellent value for my proposes. The replacement bar and chain arrived well in advance of the expected time. The items fit and performed as hoped for. I do not cut a lot of wood but when I fire up my Poulan saw I expect it to perform well. This new addition to my cutting equipment did what was expected. I'll buy again.

I found an Echo 20" Timberwolf in the dumpster awhile back with nothing wrong except for the bar and chain. The bar can be reconditioned but the chain was/is a solid mass of rust. Found this combo bar and chain for $7 to $15 cheaper than anywhere else! It fits and works well, cuts like a hot knife through soft butter!

Nice bar. Includes a full chisel chain. It’s got square cutters anyway. Definitely full chisel which is good just not for dirty conditions. Semi is a little more forgiving, but at this price you’re basically getting the chain for free. At least compared to buying an Echo bar. And ps Oregon is rumored to be the supplier of Echo bars so you’re paying to have the Echo name on it. BUT this bar is different than the Echo OEM Timberwolf bar. It’s slightly thinner also narrower but slightly longer. I see no reason it wouldn’t be just as good and maybe even advantageous being thinner in some situations. It also has a hole in the tip for grease which most better bars do.

The package arrived but there was no 20" bar. This is the second one that I ordered that arrived with the bar missing. Update: Returned package with missing bar and ordered a new one instead of the "used, like new" option. This one came well packaged and was intact. Looking forward to using it on my old McCulloch PM605 saw. 11/8/2025--- Refund is still processing on second return for some reason.

Oregon makes chains and bars for most manufacturers of chainsaws; they know what they are doing. However, the hard form-fitted plastic surrounding the blade and chain will cut you as you perform major surgery to get it out of the packaging. Scissors do not cut it. Kabar knife does not cut it. Box blade does not cut it. Tin snips do not cut it. Tactical (combat) knife does not cut it. Fifteen minutes of work required to free the chain! Get out your soldering iron and turn on to 700-degrees; melt the seam of the packaging. Next time I will return it rather than struggle with it. Absurd! I wish I had made a video and posted on YouTube.

Bar matched description and was promptly received. It was easily installed and performs well.

I bought a bar and chain but did not receive the bar, all i got was the chain.

Works as it should.Price was good.

Timberwolf eats bars, this one is cheap and works well.

Installed Great and I cut with it for approx. 3 hrs and it cut Nice and True,,, as my other one did not..
