8TEN Full Chisel Chainsaw Chain 28in.058 3/8 93DL - Value Pack

In this review the 8TEN Full Chisel Chainsaw Chain 28in.058 3/8 93DL is judged as a budget-friendly replacement set for users who need a sharp, full chisel chain that fits a wide range of saws. The bottom line: it is for owners of compatible Husqvarna, Stihl, Poulan, Jonsered and Makita models who want twice the chain for the price of an OEM option and a cutter that stays sharp on hardwoods. The review explains fit, material quality, and real-world cutting behavior.

Key Features

• 28 in length: Matches saws that require a 28 in bar and 93 drive links so buyers can replace a worn chain without modifying the bar.
• 3/8 in pitch: The common 3/8 in pitch balances cutting speed and strength for homeowner and light pro use.
• .058 in gauge: A thicker.058 in gauge provides durability and less lateral flex under load compared with thinner gauges.
• Full chisel cutters: Full chisel teeth offer fast, aggressive cuts and keep edges sharp for good cut quality on hardwoods.
• 68CrNiMo33 steel construction: Hardened chain steel and GCr15 rivets increase wear resistance and help maintain sharpness over multiple uses.
• Safety bumper link included: The included bumper link makes installation easier and restores safe nose engagement when replacing a worn chain.

Who It's For

This chain pack suits homeowners, landscapers and occasional pro users who run compatible chainsaws like many Husqvarna, Stihl, Poulan, Jonsered and Makita models and want a lower-cost alternative to OEM chains. It is especially useful when cost per usable foot matters because the pack contains multiple chains.

Users who require the absolute longest service life under heavy commercial logging should compare longevity claims carefully; some customers report mixed durability versus brand-name chains. Also confirm compatibility with your exact saw model and bar before buying, since fit issues were reported on a minority of saws.
