Milwaukee specifically recommends it for the M18 FUEL™ 20\" Dual Battery Chainsaw (2827-22) paired with the 49-16-2755 guide bar. Always verify compatibility with your specific saw before installing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this a low kickback chain?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo — the 49-16-2752 is not a low kickback saw chain. It is intended for experienced chainsaw operators who understand kickback risk and use appropriate PPE and safe operating techniques. Do not use this chain if you require a low kickback configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat file size and angle should I use to sharpen this chain?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUse a 3\/16\" round file at a 30° file angle. The depth gauge setting is .025\". Always use a filing guide to maintain consistent angles and depth gauge settings across all cutters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy does narrow kerf improve battery efficiency?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA narrow kerf chain removes less material per cut than a standard kerf chain, requiring less energy from the motor on each pass. This translates directly to more cuts per battery charge — an important advantage on cordless systems like the M18 FUEL™ platform where runtime is a key performance factor.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Milwaukee","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55706430177599,"sku":"CH-49-16-2752","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0276\/2057\/3268\/files\/f205a2999ef24ff697d60dff31340379.png?v=1790255254","url":"https:\/\/www.bartlettman.com\/products\/milwaukee-20-325-pitch-050-gauge-saw-chain","provider":"Bartlett Arborist Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
