Oregon Tool S59 Advancecut 16 in Chainsaw Chain

Product Description

The OREGON TOOL S59 is a 16-inch semi-chisel chainsaw chain built for residential and light commercial cutting. The S59 features a hard chrome outer layer over precision, heat-treated cutters that deliver a smooth cut while tolerating dirty or debris-laden wood without excessive dulling. The chain runs a 3/8-inch pitch and a 0.050-inch gauge, making it compatible with a broad range of consumer and prosumer saws up to 42 cc. A built-in Lubri-Tec automatic oiling system channels oil to critical contact points throughout the chain, extending service life and reducing the frequency of manual lubrication and tension adjustments.

This chain is suited for landscapers, tree-care crews, and homeowners operating small to mid-size gas chainsaws. It is designed for saws rated up to 42 cc with bars and sprockets engineered for narrow-kerf cutting. The semi-chisel cutter profile handles hardwood, softwood, and mixed debris with consistent results across extended work sessions. The low-kickback, low-vibration design helps reduce operator fatigue during repetitive cutting tasks common in yard maintenance, limbing, and light bucking work.

Installation Notes

Installation and chain replacement should be performed by a qualified operator following the saw manufacturer's service guidelines. Always power down the saw, engage the chain brake, and allow the engine to cool completely before handling the chain. Use appropriate cut-resistant gloves when handling or tensioning chainsaw chain. Verify bar groove width, drive link count, and sprocket pitch match the replacement chain specifications before running the saw.
