AMSOIL Semi-Synthetic Bar & Chain Oil (ABC) is a tacky, high-quality lubricant designed to cling to chains, guide bars and other moving surfaces where ordinary oils can be quickly thrown off. It provides dependable lubrication and anti-wear protection to help reduce friction, control heat and extend the service life of bar-and-chain equipment.

Chainsaw chains operate at high speed while exposed to sawdust, dirt and demanding loads. Maintaining a consistent lubricating film between the chain and guide bar is essential for reducing friction and protecting these heavily loaded components. AMSOIL Bar & Chain Oil is formulated specifically for this type of application rather than relying on general-purpose engine oil.

Tacky Formula Stays Where It's Needed

AMSOIL Bar & Chain Oil uses a tacky semi-synthetic formulation designed to adhere strongly to metal surfaces. This helps the lubricant remain on the moving chain and guide bar during operation, providing effective lubrication where high chain speeds can rapidly throw less-tacky oils away from the contact surfaces.

Helps Reduce Friction and Wear

Continuous lubrication helps reduce friction between the chain and guide bar, which in turn helps control operating heat and component wear. AMSOIL Bar & Chain Oil contains anti-wear additives to provide additional protection for demanding bar-and-chain applications and help extend equipment life.

Ideal for Chainsaws

AMSOIL Semi-Synthetic Bar & Chain Oil is ideal for chainsaws where dependable chain and guide-bar lubrication is required. It can be used in the bar-oil reservoir in accordance with the chainsaw manufacturer's instructions.

Also Suitable for Bicycle Chains

AMSOIL also lists Semi-Synthetic Bar & Chain Oil as suitable for bicycle chains. Its tacky formulation helps the lubricant adhere to the chain and provides anti-wear protection for moving metal surfaces.
