Your paying a bit extra but helping keep a local business solvent.

Been using Archer chains for the past year. £7 for 64link 3/8. They say Archer of Australia, but they're actually Chinese.
Been thoroughly impressed, definitely recommend.

I use rotatec chains ,northern arb supplies sheffield ,,they are as good as any other major brand and alot cheaper


The Rotatec chains are good, but don't be tempted by their bars. They are very, very soft.
 
Rotatec good chains, Northen arb, I got 2x 20inch chains delivered for about £15
full chisel cuts a good un
the chain is slightly softer than Oregon or Stihl but great when it comes to sharpening
them, couple of strokes with the file and it's like new.

Been using cheapie Archer and Carlton chains on all my saws for several years, all online purchases from a guy in Stoke and a fraction of the price from a main dealer. I bought three chains for my little saws last year, and they cost less than one in Charlies Stores!!
