Overview
This 2-pack of aftermarket 16-inch replacement chains is designed to fit select DeWalt chainsaw models. It replaces the factory chain when the original becomes dull beyond resharpening, damaged, or stretched past the tensioner’s range. Keeping a spare chain on hand means less downtime during cutting season — swap in a fresh chain and keep working while you sharpen the old one on the bench.
Key specifications
- Bar length: 16”
- Quantity: 2-pack
- Type: Semi-chisel (aftermarket replacement)
Compatibility
This chain is designed as a direct replacement for select DeWalt chainsaws. Double-check the pitch, gauge, and drive-link count on your existing bar stamp before purchasing. These three measurements must all match for safe operation.
Installation notes
Start by removing the battery or disconnecting the power cord. Take off the bar-cover plate and release bar tension. Pull the old chain out of the groove and off the sprocket. Seat the replacement chain into the bar groove — cutters must face forward on the top of the bar. Engage the chain on the drive sprocket, reinstall the cover, and adjust tension so the chain lifts about a dime’s width off the bar and springs back. Hand-rotate the chain to check for binding before powering on.
Common questions
Q: Will this 2-pack 16” chainsaw chain fit my DeWalt DCCS670B and DCCS670X1, or is it only for one specific version?
Yes, this chain is made for the 16-inch DeWalt models you listed, including the DCCS670B, DCCS670T1, and DCCS670X1. It is also compatible with the DCCS623L1 and DCKO667X1 as long as your saw is using the standard 16-inch bar those models came with.
Q: Do I need to do anything special when installing this chain on my DeWalt DCCS670T1?
Make sure the cutters are facing forward on the top side of the bar before you tension it, since chains are commonly installed backward by mistake. After installation, adjust the chain so it sits snug against the bar but still pulls around by hand with gloves on, then recheck tension after the first few cuts because a new chain can stretch slightly.
Q: Is this 2PC 16” chain good for general yard cutting on the DeWalt DCCS623L1, and how should I maintain it?
Yes, it works well for routine limbing, storm cleanup, and cutting medium-size firewood on compatible 16-inch DeWalt battery chainsaws. Keep the chain sharp, maintain proper bar oil flow, and clean sawdust from the bar groove and drive area regularly to reduce wear and help the chain cut smoothly.
