Low kickback saw chain
A saw chain that is designated as Low kickback saw
chain, meets the low kickback requirement specified in
ANSI B175.1-2012.
Kickback and guide bar nose radius
For guide bars with a sprocket nose the nose radius is
specified by the number of teeth, such as 10T. For solid
guide bars the nose radius is specified by the dimension
of the nose radius. For a given guide bar length, you can
use a guide bar with smaller nose radius than given.

filing angles. The part numbers are given in the table
