Oregon E72 is a replacement chainsaw chain specified for a 20-inch bar, 3/8-inch low-profile pitch, .050-inch gauge and 72 drive links. Its fit depends on matching all four dimensions to your saw and bar, rather than relying on a brand or model list alone.

What to know before buying

Fit needs confirmation against your saw's manual and bar. Customer feedback reports mixed fit, including reports of incompatibility with Husqvarna 455 Rancher models and a chain being too long for some 20-inch Poulan saws. The listing also labels the pitch as both low-profile and simply 3/8 pitch, so verify the exact chain type and required dimensions before purchase.

Frequently asked questions

What dimensions should I verify before buying?

Check your chainsaw manual and guide bar for the required bar length, pitch, gauge and drive-link count. This chain is listed as 20 inches, 3/8-inch pitch, .050-inch gauge and 72 links.

Does this fit every 20-inch chainsaw?

No. Bar length alone does not establish fit. The saw must also use the specified pitch, gauge and drive-link count, and customer feedback reports some fit and length mismatches.

What chain style does the listing describe?

The listing describes the E72 as a full-chisel PowerCut chain and says its offset depth gauges are intended to help prevent cutters driving into the cut sidewall.
