Not easy to find these days in a sprocket nose. You'd probably be best to pick up an Oregon D009 mount bar and modify it to fit. You've got to enlarge the slot .5mm, enlarge the adjuster holes and drill new oil holes. Not difficult; it takes me about an hour to file one out by hand.

Your other option is to keep an eye on Ebay for a good used bar to turn up. They do from time to time, but no telling when.

Not easy to find hard nose either

Has anyone tried these? The price isn't bad for 36". I'm guessing from the price it's not pro quality but maybe not bad.

Thank you for your help. As for Lil Red. It doesn't give the option for .404 or 3/8 when you buy.I think it's a scam.

It doesn’t give you the option because it’s a hard nose bar.

Hard nose is a bonus in my book. No sprocket to knock out.
