New replaceable sprocket nose bar features a solid-steel body with a sprocket shaped lug to guide oil toward the lubrication groove and help prevent plugging. It also is optimised for a reduction in kickback and has a self-aligning lug that helps extend bar life. It fits a wide range of harvester saws.
Replacement Sprockets
Nose-Replacement Guide Bars have a replaceable nose tip that can be changed without replacing the whole bar. This is useful for saws that require a heavier bar than normal. These bars are ideal for professional use in demanding conditions and provide superior control with less kickback.
These bars feature a patented cradle-nose design that reduces sprocket wear by spreading the load and weight over a wider area on the sprocket. This allows the sprocket to last up to 300% longer than conventional bar tips. They also have an extra-long shape that directs wear to the nose, rather than the bar body. The replacement nose is easily removed by drilling or punching out rivets (use a ball peen hammer). The sprocket is made of high-alloy industrial bearings for increased strength and fewer rotations, which decreases heat build up and extends bar life. The bar is precision heat-treated for superior resistance to wear and chipping. The guide bar lubrication channel increases contact between chain drive links and oil, significantly reducing oil waste.
Replacement Lugs
Harvester guide bars are engineered with specific features that facilitate superior performance for a multitude of timber harvesting applications. Replaceable sprocket nose assemblies simplify on-site bar maintenance and increase productivity output. Solid-machined bars with square milled grooves ensure consistency and stability, while advanced precision induction hardening reduces wear and chipping. Narrow bar noses reduce kickback tendency and increase operator control. Guides are designed to meet the needs of professional woodcutters. Each bar is backed by a 2-year limited warranty. The sprocket nose assembly is also covered by a 1-year limited warranty.
Replacement Chain
Choosing the right replacement chain for your bar is important. It must match the bar length and sprocket pitch of your saw. Check the chain label or the box it came in for the drive link count and bar nose sprocket pitch information.

Our expert technicians can help you find the right bar and chain for your job, and we have all the replacement parts you need to keep it in good shape.
A replaceable sprocket nose bar has a sprocket built into the nose of the bar with rivets that hold the chain securely. This type of bar is better for dirty conditions and jobs such as limbing or boring where the nose is used extensively. It is also designed to extend the life of the bar by directing wear away from the nose sprocket.
