Questions people ask
What size chain does a Husqvarna 540 XP take?
The Husqvarna 540 XP chain depends on the bar. 12" bar: 3/8", .050", 44 drive links; 12" bar: 3/8", .050", 45 drive links; 12" bar: .325", .043", 51 drive links; 14" bar: 3/8", .050", 50 drive links; 14" bar: 3/8", .050", 52 drive links; 14" bar: .325", .043", 59 drive links; 16" bar: 3/8", .050", 55 drive links; 16" bar: 3/8", .050", 56 drive links; 16" bar: .325", .043", 64 drive links.
How many drive links is a Husqvarna 540 XP chain?
It depends on the bar: 44 on a 12" bar, 45 on a 12" bar, 51 on a 12" bar, 50 on a 14" bar, 52 on a 14" bar, 59 on a 14" bar, 55 on a 16" bar, 56 on a 16" bar, 64 on a 16" bar. The bar length is usually printed near the mount.
Can I use a chain with the same length but different pitch?
No. Pitch and gauge have to match the bar and sprocket, and the drive link count has to match the bar. A chain that is off on any of the three will not fit or run safely.
