Reliable, fast, chainsaw chain online?

[Maplegeddon213]

My company is in the thick of storm work and we need to get a lot of chain fast to avoid sharpening while we are swamped pulling 12 hr days. Hoping people can share any online ordering that went well for bulk orders especially with a few different size chains. My local dealership kinda sucks in terms of service and I'm sick of giving them our business as well so that doesn't hurt.

Are you looking for pre-made loops or bulk spools? Personally I've always gotten very good service from Westcoast Saw, and also like Oregon chain: https://westcoastsaw.com/collections/oregon-chain

Yep. Westcoast saw. You don’t have to worry about getting the wrong stuff, or double raker chain either. Their website is dialed.

I'm prepared to be crucified for this, but I've been running 8TEN chain off of Amazon for almost a year now with no complaints.

Good price, especially because it sounds like it's basically going to be a disposable item for you.

Madsen Shop and Supply is incredible for speed and accuracy. Last time I went to order two rolls of Stihl chain I found out they were even willing to make up about half of each roll into loops for me. And at $2.?? per made up loop the only reason I kept ant of the roll intact was for a couple of odd bar lengths that I may need more chain for but don't want excess.

Isn’t all chain a disposable item? I’ve never seen/heard of/or used that brand so I can’t really speak to its quality, but those prices are not much different then the prices I pay for Oregon chain from WCS.

I meant disposable in the sense he's not taking the time to sharpen them and might possibly just be tossed aside.

Loggerchain or forestershop are fine too. Oregon, Carlton, Husq x-cut seem pretty similar in quality and cost. Semi-chisel lasts longer in grime if folks are dulling chains fast.

Just pre assembled loops, my boss doesn't want to get a chain making set up

Currently, $2.50 per loop.

I checked Stihl chain elsewhere and thought, Shoot it has doubled in price! Checked Madsens and, whew, that's a reasonable percentage increase from last 100ft rolls I bought.
