Oregon Tool S49 Advancecut 14 in Chainsaw Chain

Product Description

The OREGON TOOL S49 is a 14-inch semi-chisel chainsaw chain engineered for clean, consistent cutting on small to mid-range gas-powered saws. Built on a hard-chromed cutter design, the S49 delivers maximum wood bite while the precision heat-treated cutters maintain edge retention through extended use. The chain runs on a 3/8-inch pitch and a 0.050-inch gauge, making it a direct fit for a wide range of lightweight saws up to 42 cc. The integrated Lubri-Tec automatic oiling system channels oil to critical contact points during operation, reducing wear on both the chain and bar. Licensed landscapers and arborists will recognize the low-kickback, low-vibration construction that reduces operator fatigue during sustained cutting sessions.

The S49 is suited for residential and light commercial applications where operators run compact chainsaws for pruning, limbing, firewood processing, and general yard maintenance. The narrow-kerf profile is optimized for low-powered saws that benefit from reduced cutting resistance. This chain meets ANSI standards for low-kickback performance, making it appropriate for operators who prioritize safety alongside productivity. It is sold as a single loop replacement chain and requires a bar designed for narrow-kerf chains to function correctly.

Key Features

• Hard-chromed semi-chisel cutters provide durable wood bite and resist dulling from light debris contact
• 3/8-inch pitch and 0.050-inch gauge fits a wide range of saws rated up to 42 cc
• Lubri-Tec automatic oiling system delivers lubrication to key chain components during operation
• Low-kickback, low-vibration design meets ANSI standards and reduces operator fatigue
• Hardened rivets and chrome outer layer minimize wear and extend service intervals
• Lightweight construction simplifies installation and routine chain changes

Compatibility

Compatible with all chainsaw brands running a 3/8-inch pitch and 0.050-inch gauge. Designed for saws up to 42 cc. Must be used with a narrow-kerf bar; do not pair with standard-kerf bar designs.

Installation Notes

Chain installation should be performed by a qualified technician or knowledgeable operator with the saw fully powered down and the spark plug boot disconnected before handling the bar or chain. Heavy work gloves are required when handling chainsaw chain to prevent laceration. Verify bar groove width matches the 0.050-inch gauge before mounting, and confirm drive link count before ordering. After installation, check chain tension and lubrication before resuming operation.
