The 18" Archer Mini-Max™ Guide Bar (18B3-CL-SW) is a professional-grade laminated guide bar designed for users who need maximum reach on mid-sized saws. Specifically engineered for the Stihl small-mount (A074), this 18-inch bar offers a perfect balance of lightweight maneuverability and heavy-duty cutting capacity. The Mini-Max series features a slim-contour design to reduce weight and a high-strength sprocket nose for smooth chain operation.
Archer Mini-Max bars are constructed from premium silicon alloy steel, providing exceptional strength and a "spring-back" quality that resists permanent bending. The precise A074 tail mount ensures consistent oiling to the bar grooves and sprocket bearings, allowing your saw to maintain higher chain speeds and stay cooler during extended cutting sessions in hardwoods.
Stihl: 021, 025, MS 210, MS 211, MS 230, MS 231, MS 241, MS 250, MS 251.
⚠️ Important Compatibility Note: This bar is designed for .325" pitch drive systems only. It is NOT compatible with 3/8" or 3/8" Low Profile (Picco) sprockets. Verify your saw's drive sprocket pitch before ordering to ensure the chain and bar function correctly together.
