I used to use Oregon chains as my replacement chain. They are available at Farm and Fleet and on sale they were around $18.00. Now the price has gone up and on sale they are closer to $20. When I saw this chain at this price - I got a spare right away. It might be my imagination, but it seems like the Husqvarna chain stays sharper longer too. In any case, being able to get an actual Husqvarna chain for my Husqvarna saw at a good price, just seems right!

As the other reviewer states - be sure that the chain will fit your saw. I have a 350 with a 16" bar - (narrow kerf, 0.050") and this is the right chain for that bar.

This chain works very well to break down limbs and small branches. It will last for many hours in this use. However, once you use it to cut up a few (3 or 4) 10-12" hardwood logs you'll find it dulling quite quickly. The saw definitely has the power to get through the wood but the blades just don't last. I think it's the technique used to sharpen them. It produces a hollow bevel thats pretty thin and dulled easily.

If all you plan on doing is pruning small 3-4" branches this chain is perfect and will last hours and hours. Anything larger and it'll be up in smoke in no time flat.

I got a husqvarna 435 for some light cutting around the yard. I got this as a back up, at this price you can't go wrong!

I ordered this because the description says it fits the Husqvarna 435 chainsaw. This is not correct. This chain is WAAAAAY to short for the 435. I had to return it and buy the replacement chain at Lowe's for $20.
