STIHL Rapid Super RS Saw Chain .325″ 1.6 mm
The STIHL Rapid Super RS saw chain with a .325″ pitch and 1.6 mm drive link brings powerful, full-chisel performance into mid-spec saws. Designed for efficient cutting, it combines aggressive tooth geometry with smooth operation, making it capable in both soft and hardwood. The Rapid Super RS chain is ideal when you need professional-level speed and precision in use.
High-cutting full-chisel design
Featuring sharp square-cornered cutters, this chain’s full-chisel layout maximizes bite and minimizes cut resistance. You’ll get clean, fast slicing through timber with less drag, especially important in demanding sawing tasks.
Control & reduced vibration
The optimized layout of tie straps and cutters helps dampen vibration and improve operator comfort. Less shake means reduced fatigue and greater accuracy when cutting closely or plunging across dense materials.
Suitable for medium-power saws
Because the pitch is .325″ with a 1.6 mm drive link, this Rapid Super RS chain fits well on midsize saws balancing performance and control. Operators can access high cutting power without overloading the tool or reducing stability.
Sharpening demands & maintenance
As a full-chisel chain, the Rapid Super RS requires consistent sharpening to maintain peak performance. Use correct tooling and follow angle specifications carefully to preserve cutter geometry and avoid uneven wear.
