  • Our take on the Neo-tec NS872 Gas Chainsaw

    The Neo-tec NS872 is a 72cc two-stroke gas chainsaw power head built as a clone of the Stihl MS381/380 platform, so many parts interchange. It runs a 3.6 kW air-cooled engine with a magnesium-alloy crankcase and a HLHIC carburetor, and it takes 24, 25 or 28-inch bars with 3/8-inch pitch, 0.063-inch gauge chain. It suits landowners, farmers and firewood cutters who want a big-bore saw for felling and bucking without paying pro-brand money. Against name-brand 70cc saws it gives similar displacement and bar capacity, but weighs more and has a thinner dealer and parts network.

    About the Neo-tec NS872 Gas Chainsaw

    The Neo-tec NS872 is a gas chainsaw power head with a 72cc, 2-stroke, air-cooled engine rated at 3.6 kW. A fast air cooling system helps keep the engine from overheating. The parts are compatible with the MS381, MS380 and 038 chainsaws.

    The saw fits 24, 25 and 28 inch guide bars and uses a 3/8 inch pitch, 0.063 inch gauge chain. It has low kickback and is built for cutting large wood and felling trees. The handle bar is ergonomic for a stable, comfortable grip.

    An HLHIC carburetor meters the fuel and oil mix automatically and atomizes the fuel so the mixture burns evenly. This supports easy starting and fuel efficiency. The saw's parts are made of magnesium alloy, which resists impact, dissipates heat quickly and stays rigid.

    Questions and answers

    Does the NS872 come with a bar and chain?
    It is sold as a power head only. You supply a 24, 25 or 28-inch bar with 3/8-inch pitch and 0.063-inch gauge chain.
    What fuel mix does it need?
    It is a two-cycle air-cooled engine, so it runs on gasoline mixed with two-stroke oil. Follow the ratio in the manual.
    Is it a clone of a Stihl saw?
    Yes. It is built on the MS381/380/038 pattern, and many parts for those saws fit it.
    Can it run a 28-inch bar?
    Yes. The oiler and 72cc engine are rated for bars up to 28 inches, though a 24 or 25-inch bar suits most cutting.
    Is it worth it over a smaller saw?
    If you fell and buck large trees, the extra displacement and bar length pay off. For limbing and light yard work a smaller, lighter saw is easier to handle.
    Does it have a chain brake?
    It uses low-kickback chain and a wrap handle bar for control. Check the specific unit's safety features before use.
