The STIHL Light 04 is a 12-inch (30 cm) chainsaw guide bar, part number 3005 000 4805. It is made for firewood cutting, limbing and general yardwork. The bar takes a 3/8" PICCO (low profile) chain with a .050" (1.3 mm) gauge and 44 drive links.
It is built from three electrically welded steel plates, which keeps weight down to help reduce operator fatigue. The narrow nose design reduces kickback. The four-rivet sprocket nose allows smooth chain travel and limits wear.
The rails are induction-hardened for wear resistance and a longer bar life. Laser-engraved graphics show the key specs: 12" length, 3/8" Picco pitch, .050" gauge and 44 drive links.
