Overview
The STIHL 26 RS Chain (36390051840) is designed for high-speed chainsaw cutting applications requiring aggressive material removal in hard or frozen wood conditions.
| Manufacturer | STIHL |
|---|---|
| MPN | 36390051840 |
| Series | RAPID Super (RS) |
| Cutter Style | Full-Chisel |
| Application Material | Hard wood, frozen wood |
Technical Features
- Full-chisel, razor-edged square-cornered cutter geometry — minimizes chain friction during the cut, producing a smooth and clean kerf in hard or frozen wood.
- RAPID Super (RS) cutter and tie strap design — engineered to reduce vibration levels significantly compared to standard full-chisel configurations, lowering operator fatigue during extended use.
- Aggressive full-chisel cutter profile — delivers a faster cutting rate than STIHL RM (Rapid Micro) chain, making it suited to high-throughput cutting tasks where speed is the priority.
- Optimized plunge-cutting geometry — provides excellent plunge-cutting efficiency for bore-cut techniques used in felling and limbing operations.
Applications
- Cross-cutting and felling of hardwood timber where maximum cutting speed is required.
- Cutting frozen or cold-weather wood where chain friction and heat buildup are concerns.
- Plunge-cutting and bore-cut felling techniques demanding responsive chain performance.
- Professional and production sawing environments where chain throughput directly impacts job-site efficiency.
Maintenance Note: The RS full-chisel cutter profile delivers superior cutting speed but requires precise sharpening technique and consistent maintenance intervals to sustain performance. Regular filing to the correct angle and depth-gauge setting is essential to preserve cutting efficiency and chain longevity.
