I see Stihl has a carbide chain available, mainly for use on lumber that has concrete on it. I was wondering if a Stihl (or another brand) would work on trees in a fencerow that might have the occasional piece of wire in it? I want to clear out a fence line that runs along our property and a dirt road. Big old trees that a few of them grew right thru the old perimeter fence. Need to get these cleared out so I can install the new fence.
I've wondered too how expensive the chains would be that fire departments use to cut thru roofs.

I work for the power company and we use it,it's good for what you want to do but you can make it dull but takes a lot.It doesn't cut as fast if just cutting trees but we mainly use it for cutting CCA poles which are really hard.

We cut thru nails that people post signs and so on on the pole you know by street corners look how many nails can be in a pole! like I said they are a little slower in cutting trees but it only takes one nail on a standard chain and your not cutting.They are good for fence row trees!

I be curious on how it works on dirty wood..Cause any dirt, sand , mud etc on the wood your cutting dulls the chain real quick

Not this chain,works good for that,I'm real carefull cutting,have backhoe I built a thumb to hold logs save chain so I prefere stihl pro chain
