Description
The STIHL Hexa Filing Kit provides all the tools needed to maintain HEXA 3/8″ chains, with files, guide, and handles in a compact, durable set.
STIHL Hexa Filing Kit
The STIHL Hexa Filing Kit is a complete sharpening set designed exclusively for the RAPID HEXA 3/8″ chain. It provides everything you need to maintain the unique six-sided cutter profile, ensuring your chainsaw delivers maximum cutting efficiency and safety. With this kit, you can sharpen both the chain teeth and depth gauges using tools created specifically for the HEXA system.
Kit contents and purpose
The kit includes a patented 6-sided HEXA file that matches the chain’s tooth shape, a flat file for depth gauge maintenance, a depth gauge guide for accuracy, and two wooden file handles for comfort and control. These tools work together to simplify sharpening and keep your saw chain in peak condition.
Designed for HEXA chain systems
Standard files cannot reproduce the precise cutting geometry of HEXA chains. The included HEXA file preserves the exact tooth profile, helping the chain cut faster, stay sharper for longer, and reduce effort during operation. By maintaining the correct angles, the kit improves performance while extending the service life of your chain.
Durability and ease of use
Constructed from hardened materials, the files resist wear even under regular use. The wooden handles provide a secure and comfortable grip, giving you greater control while sharpening. Thanks to its compact layout, the kit is easy to store, transport, and organise, making it ideal for forestry professionals as well as domestic users.
Maintenance tips
Use steady strokes when filing and clean away shavings after each pass to avoid clogging. Regular attention to both cutters and depth gauges improves cutting precision, reduces strain on the saw, and helps achieve consistent results across a wide range of tasks.
