Overview
This 2-pack of aftermarket 16-inch replacement chains is designed to fit select Bauer chainsaw models. When the factory chain wears out, loses its edge after multiple sharpenings, or stretches past the tensioner’s range, this chain gets you back to cutting without waiting for a dealer order. It’s built to OEM dimensions for a direct fit.
Key specifications
- Bar length: 16”
- Quantity: 2-pack
- Type: Semi-chisel (aftermarket replacement)
Compatibility
This chain is designed as a direct replacement for select Bauer 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
Power down the saw and remove the battery or disconnect it from power before servicing. Remove the side cover or bar-cover plate to expose the bar and sprocket. Slide the worn chain off the bar groove and sprocket, noting the direction of the cutters. Install the new chain with cutting teeth facing forward on top of the bar. Reattach the cover and adjust chain tension — the chain should pull slightly away from the bar rail and snap back without sagging.
Common questions
Q: Will this 2-pack 16” replacement chain fit my BAUER 20112E-B corded chainsaw and Harbor Freight model 57622?
Yes, this chain is made for the BAUER 20112E-B 14.5 Amp 16 in. electric chainsaw and is also intended as a replacement for Harbor Freight model 57622. As long as you are using the original 16-inch bar on that saw, this chain should be the correct fit.
Q: Do I need to do anything special when installing one of these chains on my Bauer 16” corded saw?
Make sure the saw is unplugged first, then confirm the cutting teeth are facing forward on the top side of the bar before tensioning the chain. After installation, adjust it so the chain is snug but still pulls around the bar by hand, and recheck tension after the first few minutes of use since new chains can stretch slightly.
Q: How often should I sharpen or replace these 16” chains on the BAUER 57622/20112E-B saw?
That depends on what you are cutting, but if the saw starts producing fine dust instead of chips or you have to force it through the wood, the chain likely needs sharpening. Replace the chain if the cutters are heavily worn, damaged, or if it no longer holds an edge well even after sharpening.
