Husqvarna 596553664 Laminated Chainsaw Bar 16 in .325 Mini

Product Description

The HUSQVARNA 596553664 is a 16-inch laminated guide bar designed for chainsaw applications. Laminated bars are constructed from layered steel, offering a lighter weight profile compared to solid bars while maintaining the rigidity needed for controlled cutting performance. This bar is spec'd at a .325 Mini pitch, .043-inch gauge, and 64 drive links, making it a defined fitment for compatible Husqvarna chainsaw models. It is typically installed by landscapers, arborists, and experienced chainsaw operators during bar replacement or chain system service.

This guide bar is suited for residential and light-duty cutting tasks where a 16-inch cutting length is appropriate, such as limbing, pruning, and small to medium log bucking. The .325 Mini pitch is a smaller pitch class commonly found on compact and lightweight Husqvarna chainsaws. Proper chain selection must match all three bar specifications: pitch, gauge, and drive link count.

Key Features

• 16-inch cutting length suitable for limbing and small log work
• Laminated steel construction reduces bar weight compared to solid bars
• .325 Mini pitch for use with compatible small-pitch chainsaw chains
• .043-inch gauge defines the chain drive link thickness required
• 64 drive links specifies exact chain loop length for this bar

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement laminated guide bar for Husqvarna chainsaws compatible with a 16-inch bar length, .325 Mini pitch, .043-inch gauge, and 64 drive link chain specification. Confirm all four parameters against your saw's bar and chain specifications before ordering.

Installation Notes

Bar replacement on a chainsaw should be performed by a qualified technician or experienced operator following the saw manufacturer's service guidelines. Always disconnect the spark plug wire before removing or installing the bar and chain. Ensure the bar groove, sprocket nose, and chain tensioner are inspected and cleaned during installation. Verify that the replacement chain matches the bar's pitch, gauge, and drive link count exactly before operating the saw.
