A chainsaw guide bar includes a bar body and a nose member removably attached to the bar body by an elastic snap-in coupling, eliminating the need for separate fastening elements. The snap-in coupling includes dimples formed in tongues of the nose member, the dimples being received in holes formed in a web of the bar body. The dimpled portions of the tongues are elastically flexible in a thickness direction of the guide bar to enable the nose member to be inserted or removed.

Replaceable nose member for chain saw guide bars

A nose sprocket for the saw chain of a chain saw includes radially projecting teeth, each tooth having leading and trailing edges. Each of those edges includes a straight inner portion and an outer portion that deviates from a radius of the sprocket by a greater amount than the inner portion. The teeth are long enough to enter a space formed between side links of the saw chain.
