Overview

Designed for compact pruning saws, this replacement chain fits 3004-20 Chainsaw models and delivers clean cuts on small branches. Bundled as 2 chains, giving you a ready spare. Chains wear down over time from regular use, and a fresh chain cuts faster and safer than a dull one.

Key specifications

  • Bar length: 8”
  • Quantity: 2 chains per pack

Compatibility

This chain is designed to fit 3004-20 Chainsaw. Double-check your model number against the listing to ensure a correct match before installation.

Installation notes

Always disconnect power before swapping the chain. On most pruning saws, a thumbscrew or tool-free knob releases the bar cover. Remove the worn chain, position the new one with teeth oriented in the cutting direction, and reassemble. Adjust tension so the chain is firm against the bar but still rotates freely by hand.

Common questions

Q: Will this 2PC 8” Pruning Saw Chain fit my Milwaukee 3004-20 chainsaw with the stock 8-inch bar?

Yes, this chain is made for the 3004-20 and matches the 8-inch bar setup used on that pruning saw. If your saw still has the original bar size, this is the correct replacement chain set.

Q: Do I need any special steps to install this 8” chain on the 3004-20, or is it a direct swap?

It installs as a direct replacement, but make sure the chain is seated correctly in the bar groove and around the drive sprocket before tightening the cover. After installation, set the chain tension so it sits snug on the bar but can still be pulled around by hand, then recheck tension after the first few cuts.

Q: How often should I sharpen or replace this pruning saw chain when using it for limb trimming?

For clean pruning, sharpen the chain as soon as you notice slower cutting, extra pressure needed, or fine sawdust instead of larger chips. Keep the chain properly oiled and tensioned, and replace it if the cutters are heavily worn, damaged, or no longer sharpen evenly.

Compatibility

This part is verified to fit the following equipment. Always confirm the model number stamped on your machine before ordering.

Not sure which chain you need? See our guide: How to count drive links or Chain pitch, gauge & drive links explained.

Before you buy — how to verify fitment

  1. Find the bar stamp. Look on the side of your current guide bar for the pitch, gauge, and drive-link count.
  2. Match all three numbers. Pitch (3/8 LP), gauge (.043"), and drive links (33DL) must all match.
  3. Check bar length. Measure cutting length from the tip to where the bar enters the saw body — this should match 8".
  4. Confirm your saw model against the compatibility list above. If your model isn't listed, the chain may still fit if pitch/gauge/DL match.

Frequently asked questions

How do I know this chain fits my saw?

Match three numbers: pitch, gauge, and drive-link count. All three must match the stamp on your current bar. If even one is off, the chain won't fit safely.

How do I measure pitch and gauge?

Pitch is the distance between any three consecutive rivets, divided by two. Gauge is the thickness of the drive links — measure with a caliper or check the bar stamp. Our guide covers both in detail.

How long does a replacement chain last?

With proper tension and occasional sharpening, an aftermarket chain lasts 3–5 cords of firewood or about 5 hours of active cutting — roughly the same as OEM.

Can I sharpen this chain or is it single-use?

Absolutely sharpen it. A quality replacement chain can be sharpened 3–5 times before the cutters are too short. Keep a round file matched to the cutter diameter.
