Hello,

Would like to know how many driver's a Stihl
3002 mount, ES 41" .404 bar when changed to 3/8 pitch.
.

A 42"bar in 3/8 pitch usually has 135 drivers.
Are you sure about the bar length?

Kevin,

I don't have it yet, but Stihl catalog shows
ES 41" bar for MS880. It comes as .404 pitch bar.
I ask dealer to also order a 3/8 pitch nose
sprocket so I can change it over to 3/8 pitch.

It may be like Stihl's 24" and 25" bars.

Thanks

Yes, but I orderd 3/8 pitch sprocket bar nose, to convert
to 3/8 pitch.

Roger that, but it isn't common as is the 25" bar so there's no way to tell from their published specs.
It's a custom length but they might be able to tell you.
Can you buy the chain from a local shop and have it made up?

What's the .404 link count? We can convert it.  8)

With the 123 link count provided in Kevin's picture, I'm going to say it will equal 137 links in 3/8". That's according to my chain scale sticker from Bailey's.

I will have saw with me at dealer, so we can make chain to fit.
Just thought if some one had been threw this before
it would save me the trouble.  ;D

135 drivers is what it takes.
