Description
Oregon ControlCut™ 16″ Guide Bar – .325″ x .063″ (62 DL)
The Oregon 163PXLBA074 ControlCut™ is a professional-grade, lightweight guide bar designed for woodcutters who prioritize precision and maneuverability. Engineered with a stiffer bar body for more accurate cuts, this 16-inch bar provides exceptional balance on smaller Stihl powerheads, reducing operator fatigue during long days of felling, limbing, and bucking.
Superior Control & Durability
The ControlCut™ series features a small-radius sprocket nose designed to reduce kickback and improve cutting control. A redesigned sprocket nose system ensures a longer service life, while the optimized chain fit-up reduces rail wear, keeping your cuts straighter and your equipment running smoother for longer.
