Product Description
Milwaukee 10 in. .325 in. LOW PROFILE Pitch, .043 in. Gauge Guide Bar
Model Number: 49-16-2760
The Milwaukee 49-16-2760 10 in. .325 in. LOW PROFILE Pitch, .043 in. Gauge Guide Bar is a genuine OEM chainsaw guide bar designed specifically for the Milwaukee 3013-20 M18 FUEL Telescoping Pole Saw, the cordless pole saw built for tree care professionals, landscapers, arborists, utility crews, and homeowners performing overhead limbing, pruning, and storm cleanup work. The guide bar is the steel bar that the saw chain rides on as it travels around the cutting loop, providing both the structural support that holds the chain in line during the cut and the lubrication path that keeps the chain running cool and clean throughout extended cutting sessions. As a narrow kerf design, the 49-16-2760 removes less wood per cut compared to standard kerf bars, which translates directly into more cuts per battery charge and longer runtime on the 3013-20 platform.
Manufactured from high-strength alloy steel with an optimized profile, the 49-16-2760 is engineered to balance durability with light weight, which matters on a telescoping pole saw where every ounce at the head affects operator fatigue, balance, and control during overhead work. The professional-grade nose components are built to withstand the abrasive contact and impact loading that occurs during heavy limbing work, and the small-radius sprocket nose design produces smooth, accurate cuts with minimal kickback risk compared to larger nose-radius bars. A tail lead-in feature reduces chain wear at the entry point where the chain transitions from the sprocket drive into the bar groove, extending the service life of both the bar and the chain by reducing the abrasion that typically wears out chains prematurely.
The 49-16-2760 fits any chainsaw or pole saw with an A041 tail mount running narrow kerf chains of matching pitch (.325 in. LOW PROFILE), gauge (.043 in.), length (10 in.), and drive link count (46), giving it broader compatibility than just the 3013-20 platform. The matching saw chain is the Milwaukee 49-16-2759 10 in. .325 in. LOW PROFILE Pitch, .043 in. Gauge Saw Chain, which is sold separately. Bar and chain typically wear at similar rates, so most operators replace them together when either component reaches end of service life. Always inspect the bar groove for wear, the sprocket nose for damage, and the rail edges for burrs before each use, and dress the bar rails periodically with a flat file to remove minor edge damage and extend bar life. The bar requires fresh chain and bar oil during operation to prevent overheating and accelerated wear.
