Oct 31, 2010 #6 southsoundtree Been here much more than a while Location Olympia, WA http://www.granberg.com/ripping_chain.html Here is a good diagram of the alaskan mill mfr.'s ripping chain. Some cutters have top plates ground/ cut off, and the others have a shallow angle. I think that it is for clearing and cutting, respectively.
