The Oregon S55 is a 16-inch, 55-drive-link replacement chain for small gas and electric saws up to 42 cc, including many Craftsman, Wen and Poulan models. It uses a low-kickback, low-vibration semi-chisel cutter with a chrome outer layer and hardened rivets, so it holds an edge longer and needs fewer tension adjustments than basic chains. The semi-chisel profile trades a little speed in clean wood for tolerance of dirt and grit, which suits homeowners and occasional cutters more than pro arborists. Compared with full-chisel chains it cuts slower but is more forgiving and safer for less experienced users.

Owners generally find the S55 a reliable, long-lasting replacement chain that fits the saws it lists and cuts well for general yard work. Most praise its durability and easy setup; some note it dulls faster in dirty wood or arrives needing tension adjustment.
The Oregon S55 is a replacement saw chain for chainsaws. It is a semi-chisel chain, precision made and heat treated to cut smoothly and handle debris better. The chain is low-kickback and low-vibration, which helps reduce user fatigue.
The chain is made of steel with a tough chrome outer layer and hardened rivets. These reduce wear and mean fewer chain adjustments are needed. A built-in Lubri-Tec automatic oiling system delivers oil to key parts of the chain. It is intended for saws up to 42 cc.
