Stihl's 021, MS210 and MS211 have cut a lot of firewood over the decades, and many run a 16-inch bar with a .050" groove. This 55-link loop matches Stihl 63PM3 55 for those saws and for McCulloch models of the same size.

About this loop

The older 021 and its successors often turn up at estate sales and in barn corners with a worn chain and a still-good bar. Give one a fresh loop and it is back to work. Before buying, confirm .050" on the bar stamp, since Stihl also made .043" bars for these saws, and count 55 links. Our part 1B0Q55X, also listed as S55, has chrome-plated semi-chisel cutters, hardened rivets and German steel plates. It ships in protective oil, so the two spares stay clean until you need them.

  • Fits the Stihl 021, MS210 and MS211 and McCulloch saws running a 16-inch bar with a .050" groove.
  • Stihl sells this size as 63PM3 55 and generic boxes call it S55; count 55 drive links to confirm.
  • Stihl also made .043" bars for these models; if yours reads .043", choose our 61PMM3 55 loop.
  • Semi-chisel cutters tolerate the dirty, weathered wood that older saws tend to tackle around a farm or woodlot.
