Tungsten Carbide Chainsaw Chain 3/8 .063 (1.6mm) — Suits Stihl MS311 to 500i MS661
FREE shipping on chainsaw orders over $299
- Tungsten carbide tips weld-fused onto every cutter, not hardened steel that rolls and dulls.
- Holds its edge up to 10 times longer between sharpening, so far fewer stops to sharpen.
- Eats dirty bark, sand and abrasive timber that blunts a standard chain in minutes.
- Australian family-run, flat $10 shipping, dispatched in 1 to 2 business days.
Can the tungsten carbide teeth be damaged?
Each tungsten carbide tip is weld-fused onto the cutter. Under normal cutting, the tungsten carbide is designed to last the life of the chain.
What damages the tungsten cutters is a blunt chain, over-forcing it into timber, or hitting steel, lead bullets, wire, rock or dirt, and that will wreck any chain.
Cut clean timber, keep the chain tensioned correctly, and keep the chain sharp. Used properly, the tungsten cutting teeth should outlast the drive links and the rest of the chain.

Why tungsten carbide?
Why tungsten carbide?
Tungsten carbide is one of the hardest cutting-tool materials going. We braze a tungsten carbide tip onto every cutter, so the edge holds up where a standard steel chain just rolls and dulls.
What that means on the saw: fewer stops, less sharpening, more wood through the bar per session. The chain body is German steel, high quality design for Australian hardwood.
10× longer edge life, what that actually means
10× longer edge life, what that actually means
A standard steel chain dulls after minimal work. A tungsten carbide chain stays sharp roughly 10× longer in the same conditions.
If you used to sharpen your chain after every fuel tank, now you can run a chain that lasts 10 times longer between sharpens.
Fits your saw?
Fits your saw?
Three specs to check:
Pitch, the spacing between drive links, stamped on your bar. 3/8" and .325" pitch are the most common for farm and forestry saws.
Gauge, the thickness of the drive link. Match your bar:
- .063" (1.6mm), suits most Stihl 3/8" setups (and .404 forestry saws).
- .058" (1.5mm), suits most Husqvarna 3/8" setups.
- .050" (1.3mm), low-profile chain for smaller / mid-range saws.
- .043" (1.1mm), low-profile chain for smaller saws.
Drive link count, total number of links. Depends on bar length.
Not sure? Use our Chain Finder, pick your saw model and it returns the exact pitch, gauge, and drive link count. Or send Aaron a photo of your bar stamping on 0431 183 421.
Sharpening, what you need to know
Sharpening, what you need to know
Tungsten carbide doesn't sharpen like standard steel chain. You'll sharpen these way less often, but when you do, use a diamond sharpening disc, a regular round file won't touch the carbide tip.
Signs it's time to sharpen: cuts are slowing down, you're applying more pressure than usual, or sawdust looks fine and powdery instead of chips.
For most users, expect 1–2 sharpenings a year of regular use, vs every few sessions for a standard chain.
Common questions
Common questions
How long does it last? Roughly 10× longer than standard steel chain in the same cutting conditions.
Can I sharpen it myself? Yes, but you need a diamond sharpening disc (not a regular round file).
Will it work on dirty timber? That's exactly what it's built for. Semi-chisel + carbide handles dirt, sand, and abrasive bark far better than full chisel chain.
Does it cut faster than standard chain? Standard chain is slightly faster on clean softwood. Carbide chain is faster on average in real cutting because it stays sharp, you spend the session cutting, not sharpening.
What kills it? Same things that kill any chain, dirt, rocks, fencing wire, nails in old logs, hitting steel. The chain is built for timber, not metal or stone.

What's not covered: damage from hitting rocks, dirt, fencing wire, nails, or steel, that's wear-and-tear on any chain. Tungsten holds up better than standard, but it's not bulletproof against metal.

"Unreal family business. Seeing a small family go out and have a go gets my vote every day."
"I couldn't be happier with the service and products I've received from Farm & Acre Co. I've purchased both cattle ear tags and chainsaw chains, and the quality of everything has been outstanding. Their customer service is second to none—friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful from start to finish. Pricing is extremely competitive, especially considering the quality of the products, and the turnaround time was impressively fast. My order arrived quickly and exactly as promised. It's rare these days to find a business that delivers the best service, best products, and great value all at once, but Farm & Acre Co does exactly that. In my opinion, they're one of the best farm supply businesses in Australia, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone in the rural or agricultural industry."
Great chain, already cut two trailer loads and no issues.
Delivery was quick, happy customer 👍
Used it for 1/2 a day so far and ripping through good wood. Fits bar perfectly
4 tanks done and still cutting well will be ordering some more in the future
We cut a lot of firewood and it’s going really well, thanks
very good product, like a hot knife through butter!
Tried the tungsten carbide chain out on a couple of ton of old dried Red Gum. Did the complete load and is not showing any sign of dullness yet. Seems to be living up to the claims made. So far it is a good investment.
Running this chain on 500i, it's been wonderful, super sharp still after 12 loads of hardwood.
👍💪
It’s looks great haven’t used it yet can’t wait to see how it goes
Great service and product
Used on weekendand will continue purchasing with you guys
Thanks
Worked awesome, still cleaning up my tracks at Tenterfield after the 2023 fires, cut 2 Ute loads with my Stihl 661 20inch bar of stringy bark with just over half a tank of fuel , will be purchasing more in the future.
Hi Aaron just writing a quick message I bought
3 x tungsten chains back in November 2 x 18” / 1 x 20” when you had a combo deal happening. I went to cut a load of wood for the first time today, Tuesday 5th May, half way through the load I noticed the saw started chattering. I stopped and found 12 teeth had snapped off. Only cutting red gum I have photos of the chain & the timber I’m cutting. Is there any other issues with this type of chain, I have noticed that you are selling another brand of tungsten chain now
Regards Mark
PS. I can send photos to your mobile if you wish & happy to call & have a chat as I cut quite a few ton over the winter months & not just red gum but yellow box as well. I’ve also never had a problem with standard chains.
Mark, I am sorry this went unanswered. Your review was caught by a spam filter on our review app and never reached us. That is on us and it has been fixed.
Twelve teeth off a chain is not acceptable and I would like to see those photos. Email us through the website with them attached and we will arrange getting the chain back to inspect, then sort you out properly.
Red gum is hard work and carbide is more brittle than standard steel, so it is less tolerant of anything hidden in the timber. But three chains out of one order behaving like that is worth a proper look rather than an explanation over the internet.
Aaron, Farm & Acre Co
I've used my saw for 17 years now. After some initial confusion I received the chain for my Stihl Farmboss fitted it and gave it a burl on some wood. I have a mixture of old growth and regrowth logs I'm processing for this years heat. The chain goes through the regrowth a tad better than the standard microcut Stihl chain. It shines on the regrowth as long as you don't push it and choke the cut. Will purchase another.
Fantastic cuts beautifully haven’t cut enough wood yet to wear it out
very happy with them been cutting both green and dry wood the green wood centre full of wet termite dirt and still cutting great
Decent chains for the price
Excellent service and after sales response .I would highly recommend anyone to use this company .
Hi, l haven't had a chance to try them out yet

This chainsaw blade I had purchased has changed the use of my chainsaw, its deadset feels like a brand new piece of equipment. Highly recommend these tungsten tipped chainsaw blades.
Good service and quick delivery.
Awesome product, worked better than expected. Well worth the outlay.

Excellent product
I'm cutting some very old and dry ironbark and your chains have made it so much easier and they are lasting much much longer than my old ones.
Love it so far, I've used it on 1 tree so far and was very happy
