Guide bar R 45cm/18" 1,3mm/0050" 325"

Overview

The STIHL Light 04 Slim Guide Bar (30030083317) is designed for chainsaw use as a lightweight, laminated guide bar accessory, built to reduce tool weight and operator fatigue during extended cutting operations.

Technical Features

• High-grade steel construction with three electrically welded metal plates: Provides structural integrity and durability throughout the bar's service life, resisting flexion and stress under load.
• Laminated, slim-profile design with thinner lateral plates: Delivers up to 20% less weight compared to the STIHL ROLLOMATIC E Standard in the same size, directly reducing operator fatigue during prolonged use.
• Smaller-diameter sprocket in the nose: Contributes to the reduced overall weight and slim profile, allowing for tighter cutting geometry and improved maneuverability.
• Induction-hardened rails: Increases wear resistance along the cutting edge contact zone, extending the operational service life of the bar.
• Four-rivet sprocket nose: Reinforces the nose assembly for improved performance capability and long-term durability under demanding cutting conditions.
• Laser-engraved graphics: Permanently marks bar length, pitch, groove width, drive link count, and part number directly on the bar for fast, accurate identification and replacement reference without consulting external documentation.

Applications

• Compatible with STIHL chainsaws accepting an 18 in / 45 cm bar with .325 in pitch and 1.3 mm / 0.050 in groove width — suited for firewood cutting, limbing, and general-purpose felling tasks where reduced tool weight is a priority.
• Well-suited for users performing extended or overhead cutting work where a lightweight bar configuration reduces cumulative operator strain.
• Designed as a direct-fit replacement or upgrade component within the STIHL ecosystem, with on-bar engraved specifications simplifying reordering and compatibility verification.
