Overview
Sold as a 2-pack, this chain is a direct replacement for BAUER 20112E-B models. A worn chain strains the motor and increases kickback risk, so timely replacement keeps your saw running safely and efficiently.
Key specifications
- Bar length: 16”
- Quantity: 2 chains per pack
Compatibility
This replacement chain works with BAUER 20112E-B. Always confirm your saw’s model number and bar length before ordering to ensure proper fit.
Installation notes
Begin by shutting off the saw and disconnecting the power source. Loosen the bar-mounting fasteners and remove the side cover to access the chain. Slide the worn chain off, seat the replacement around the sprocket and into the bar groove with cutters pointing in the direction of rotation. Tighten the tensioning screw until there is slight play but no droop, then secure the cover.
Common questions
Q: Will this 2-pack of 16” chains fit my BAUER 20112E-B chainsaw without changing the bar or sprocket?
Yes, this chain set is made for the BAUER 20112E-B with a 16-inch bar, so it should fit correctly without changing the bar or drive components as long as your saw is still using the original 16” setup. It’s always a good idea to confirm your old chain’s markings and make sure the bar hasn’t been swapped to a different size.
Q: Since this comes with 2 chains, can I rotate them on my BAUER 20112E-B to make them last longer?
Yes, rotating between the two chains is a smart maintenance practice, especially if you cut often with your 16” BAUER saw. Swap to the second chain when the first starts to dull, then sharpen the removed chain and check chain tension before reinstalling so both chains wear more evenly with the bar.
Q: What’s the best way to install and tension one of these 16” replacement chains on the BAUER 20112E-B?
Make sure the saw is powered off, then install the chain with the cutting edges on the top of the bar facing forward. After mounting it, adjust tension so the chain sits snugly against the bar but can still be pulled around by hand with a gloved hand, then recheck tension again after the first few minutes of cutting since a new chain can stretch slightly.
