    Ordered a set for a 261 and was surprised to see they redesigned them.

    They look cool but you can't use the roller chain catcher.

    If you order the 362R dogs it comes with a roller chain catcher.

    Actaully im not impressed with how cheap they feel, they would bend pretty easy.

    But they were only 11 bucks..

    That dawg set that fit the 026/260/260/361/362 are beefier than these things..plus the roller chain catch was nice.

    After feeling these things im glad i have about 4 of the older sets.

    I just was about to post asking about some dawgs for a Stihl 362 a buddy of mine has!
    He likes the ones I’ve got on my husky 372 417342D5-0829-412B-A52E-E7E3BDFE3AB0.png and I was curious if anyone had a nice set on a Stihl 362?

    These new ones fit a 361/362.

    I'd go with some of the custom aftermarket ones on ebay though.

    Here's a set on my 1957 Pioneer RA I made from an old cement saw blade. They're tougher than nails, try finding a set like that on Ebay.....

    I use a cutoff wheel on my 4" grunder for them.

    The ones I forge from leaf springs, they are mega-tough.......
