DeWALT Replacement 8-in. Chainsaw Chain (DWO1DT608)

Key Features

Made for the 8 in. bar

Built to fit the DEWALT DCPS620 pole saw platform with an 8 in. bar, so you are replacing the wear part you actually need instead of guessing on chain size.

Smoother, safer cutting

Ramped depth gauges and a low-vibration design help the chain cut smoothly while reducing kickback. That matters when you are working overhead with a pole saw.

Semi chisel edge

The semi chisel chain design is built to hold its edge longer in typical outdoor cutting conditions, which means less downtime for touch-ups and more consistent pruning performance.

Overview

The DeWalt DWO1DT608 Replacement 8" Chainsaw Chain is a replacement pole saw chain for DEWALT 8 in. bar applications, specifically the DCPS620. This is a chainsaw chain designed for pruning and pole saw cutting. Model Number: DWO1DT608. If your original chain is dull, stretched, or damaged, this is the direct-fit consumable that gets your saw back to clean, controlled cutting.

This chain is sized for an 8 in. bar and uses a 3/8 in. pitch, .043 in. gauge, and 34 drive links. Those numbers are what matter when you are replacing a chain, because close is not good enough. The right fit means proper tracking on the bar, correct tensioning, and smoother cutting without fighting the saw.

DEWALT uses a semi chisel chain design here, which is a smart choice for a cordless pole saw. In real yard and property work, you are often cutting dirty bark, small limbs, and wood that is not perfectly clean. A semi chisel profile generally trades a little aggressiveness for better edge retention, which is often the better deal on a pole saw where consistency matters more than brute speed.

The chain also includes Centri-Lube technology, with a channel in each drive link that helps pull oil from the bar and move it to the rivets. That helps reduce friction and wear, and it is one of those small details that actually matters on a replacement chain. Better lubrication support can help chain life and keep the cut feeling smoother over time.

For control, DEWALT calls out ramped depth gauges, low vibration, and ANSI low kickback compliance. On a pole saw, that is not just spec-sheet filler. You are usually reaching out and cutting above shoulder height, so anything that helps the chain run smoother and behave more predictably is worth paying attention to.

This replacement chain makes the most sense for homeowners, property maintenance users, and pros who already run the DEWALT DCPS620 and want the correct OEM chain on hand. If you want a direct replacement instead of cross-referencing chain specs at the hardware aisle, this is the easy answer.
