Stihl 33RS is a full-chisel chainsaw chain listed for a 20-inch bar, with a 3/8-inch pitch and .050-inch gauge. Its fit depends on matching the bar specifications and required drive-link count, so verify both before ordering.

What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

The listing’s model/title wording includes “72,” while its drive-link-count detail says 45. It also gives pitch as “3 tpi” in the technical details but lists “3/8 Pitch” in the title and features. These details are inconsistent, so confirm the correct pitch and drive-link count for your bar before ordering.
