Questions people ask
What size chain does a Stihl MSE170 take?
The Stihl MSE170 with a 16" bar takes 3/8" LP pitch, .050" gauge chain with 55 drive links (Oregon T55).
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.
