Tsumura Light Bar Black Edition 18″ Guide Bar – 3/8″ .058″ (1.5mm) 68DL
The Tsumura Light Bar Black Edition 18″ Guide Bar is a premium lightweight chainsaw guide bar designed for professional forestry, arborist and timber cutting applications.

Its lightweight construction helps improve handling and cutting stability while maintaining the durability required for professional chainsaw use.
Key Features
- Tsumura Light Bar Black Edition professional guide bar
- 18″ / 45cm guide bar length
- 3/8″ chain pitch
- .058″ / 1.5mm gauge
- Compatible with 68 drive link chains
- Light Type construction reduces weight by approximately 20%
- Salt heat-treated steel for strength and durability
- Uniform groove gauge tolerances for precise chain fit
- Designed to improve cutting stability over the bar nose
- Premium Black Edition finish
Advanced Salt Heat Treatment
Tsumura guide bars use a specialist salt bath heat treatment process to achieve the ideal balance of toughness and hardness. Rather than rapidly heating the steel, the salt bath method applies a gradual and controlled heat process, producing a stable hardened steel structure with reduced distortion.
Lightweight Professional Design
Light Type Tsumura bars use staggered dove-tailed notches cut into the bar surface and packed with hard resin. This reduces overall guide bar weight by around 20%, helping improve balance, cutting efficiency and user comfort during prolonged work.
Durable SKS-51 Alloy Steel Construction
Tsumura solid guide bars are manufactured from one plate of super-hard SKS-51 alloy steel, delivering the strength and durability required for demanding forestry and professional cutting applications.
Precision Chain Fit
Uniform groove gauge tolerances help provide a precise chain fit, supporting smoother cutting behaviour, improved stability and consistent performance across the guide bar nose.
