STIHL OEM 3610 005 0044 PICCO Micro Mini™ 3 (61PMM3 44) Chainsaw Chain
Keep your STIHL chainsaw cutting efficiently with the genuine STIHL OEM 3610 005 0044 PICCO Micro Mini™ 3 (61PMM3 44) chainsaw chain. Designed for lightweight chainsaws using a 12" guide bar, this narrow-kerf, low-profile chain delivers fast, smooth cutting performance while requiring less power from the saw. Ideal for battery-powered, electric, and compact gasoline chainsaws, the PMM3 chain offers reduced kickback, low vibration, and exceptional cutting efficiency for pruning, trimming, and general property maintenance.
Chain fitment depends on your guide bar specifications—not just your chainsaw model.
Always verify your current chain specifications:
- 3/8" Low Profile (PICCO) Pitch
- .043" Gauge
- 44 Drive Links
- 61PMM3 44 chain designation
Model fitment alone does not guarantee compatibility.
If you're unsure, contact us with your STIHL model number, guide bar information, and current chain number, and we'll help verify the correct replacement before you order.
