• Any sawmill worker will tell you that the Ripping chain is different from all other saw chains. You need a special kind of chain like this for ripping cuts, the kind that transforms raw timber into boards and planks used in homes and cabins.
•  Oregon RipCut is designed specifically for chain-type mills, producing smooth cuts with extreme efficiency. RipCut's precise ripping cuts give you a smooth surface every time you cut parallel to the wood grain. 
• LubriTec keeps your chain and guide bar oiled for less friction and longer life
• Exclusive OCS-01 Steel provides greater durability
• For saw sizes 50-100 cc
• For ripping cuts only. Do not use it for any type of cutting other than ripping.
• 72RD chain has a special ripping application grind for making dimensional boards and plank from larger timber. 
• This chain is designed to be used on chain-type sawmills and is not recommended for hand-held use.
• Sharpens at 10 degrees with 7/32" file (part#_70502_)
• Maintain depth gauge at .025 clearance
