Our take on the STIHL 12 inch Chainsaw Bar 3005 008 3905 OEM

The STIHL Light 01 is a 12-inch laminated guide bar for 3/8" PICCO low-profile chainsaw chain. It runs a 0.043" gauge and takes 44 drive links, matching STIHL 61 PMM3 44 chain. The three-part electrically welded steel body and 7-tooth star nose sprocket keep the bar light and narrow for pruning and limbing. It suits owners of small STIHL saws set up for low-profile chain who want a shorter, lighter bar than a standard 16-inch bar.

About the STIHL 12 inch Chainsaw Bar 3005 008 3905 OEM

This is the STIHL 12 inch Light 01 guide bar for chainsaws, part number 3005 008 3905. It has a 12 inch (30 cm) cutting length and is made for pruning, trimming and light-duty cutting.

The bar is a three-part laminated design made of high-grade steel, electrically welded for stability. A 7-tooth star-shaped nose sprocket reduces wear and allows a narrower bar nose, which improves maneuverability.

It takes 3/8" PICCO low profile chain with a .043" (1.1 mm) gauge and 44 drive links. The compatible chain model is the STIHL 61 PMM3 44.

Questions and answers

What chain does this bar take?
It takes 3/8" PICCO low-profile chain in 0.043" gauge with 44 drive links, such as STIHL 61 PMM3 44. Standard 3/8" chain will not fit.
Which saws does it fit?
It fits STIHL saws that run 3/8" PICCO 0.043" chain and a 12-inch bar, such as small MS models. Check your saw's bar mount and chain pitch before buying.
Is this bar lighter than a standard bar?
Yes. The laminated three-part steel body and narrow nose make it lighter than a solid 16-inch bar, which helps when cutting above shoulder height.
Does the nose sprocket need maintenance?
Yes. Grease the 7-tooth star sprocket through its lubrication hole regularly, and keep the chain tension correct to limit sprocket wear.
Is it worth choosing over a longer bar?
For pruning and limbing, yes: the shorter bar is lighter and easier to control. For felling or bucking larger logs, a longer bar with standard chain is the better tool.
