Recommended original and replacement bar and chain combinations
Following is a list of recommended cutting equipment for the Husqvarna chain saw model 455 Rancher, 455e Rancher
and 460 Rancher. The combinations of power head, bar and chain have been tested and found to be in accordance with
the kickback requirements of ANSI B175.1–2000 and CSA Z62.1-03, Z62.3-96 for Class 1A chainsaw.
The guide bar nose radius is determined by either the maximum number of teeth in the nose sprocket or the
corresponding maximum nose radius of a solid bar.
The following list is the chain saw manufacturers recommendations. There may be other combinations available, which
will also achieve kickback reduction.
As we are listing the maximum guide bar nose radius, you may use a guide bar with smaller nose radius than in our list.
For guide bars of the same length, all sprocket-nose guide bars of the same pitch and having the same number of
sprocket teeth may be considered to have equivalent kickback energy. A hard nose bar having the same length and nose
radius as a sprocket-nose bar may be considered to have equivalent or less kickback energy than the sprocket-nose bar.
Chain saw model Husqvarna 455 Rancher, 455e Rancher and 460 Rancher met the kickback performance requirements
of ANSI B 175.1-2000 and Z62.3-96 when tested with the combinations of bars and saw chains listed below. The saw
chains Husqvarna H80 and H81 are also classified as a low kickback saw chain since it met the requirements for low
kickback saw chain outlined in ANSI B 175.1-2000. We recommend to use only the listed combinations of bars and
chains for chain saw model Husqvarna 455 Rancher, 455e Rancher and 460 Rancher. Other chain saw models may not
meet the kickback requirements when equipped with the listed bar and chain combinations.
Note: For the saw chains above (if available) you are free to choose between 0,050" or 0,058" gauge drive links for the
corresponding bar, see the table below.
