Chain Production

STIHL is the only manufacturer to develop its own chainsaw power unit, guide bar and saw chain in-house.  This means all the components can be perfectly coordinated for optimum performance.  STIHL saw chains have been made in the same chain plant in Wil, Switzerland for the past 50 years.  Learn more about the manufacturing process and quality controls.
