Make sure to comment on which chain saw you think is quicker and why you guys think it is The legendary 455 rancher Husqvarna 455 Rancher VS 450 Husqvarna chainsaw Cutting Comparison with the 455 and 450 Chainsaw.
I own a 455 and have cut a lot of wood with it. Based on my experience and NOT the performance of the 450 I would say the chain made the difference in this video. The 455 has consistently cut faster than that for me. That being said I have never personally used a 450.
You are very right. 450 has chain with 0.325 pitch vs 0.375 for 455. That mean approximately 220 N cutting force for 450 vs approximately 207 N for 455, although 455 is a faster. Some times velocity is not everything.
The 450 cuts like a hot knife through butter..! I just got mine recently with the 20" bar and cut through some logs about that same size.. I'm glad I bought it. I plan to keep it sharp and do the regular maintenance.. keep it running as a great saw! keep fresh gas!
I have a 450, 455, 266 and a 272. They are all phenomenal. I mostly use my 450 with a 20" bar. That machine runs like a banshee. I also have 2 Poulan wild thing chainsaw. Yes, Poulan is made by Husqvarna. Great video. Thx
I have 455 rancher and that thing is a beast and a bit heavy for me but great for cutting logs. The 450 I use mainly for cutting down trees. I have both of them. And the 450 is my favourite because it’s lighter to carry. Great power to weight ratio.
Would love to see a comparison using one bar & chain switched between saws. no variation in sharpness, bar wear, etc. that way. Am very pleased with my new 455 Rancher for general yard work. It runs circles around my old 42 Special. Would have been equally happy owning either of these saws. I went to the store to buy the lighter, less expensive 450 but they were sold out so I bought the last 455 in stock.
Great review! Just a friendly advice how to pronounce the Swedish brand Husqvarna. You seem to pronounce it like "Huskeywarna", but the correct way would be more like "hoosk-VAR-na" or "huusk-VAR-na".
I put a 28in bar on my 455 and did a few mods to the saw and I love it. I would buy a echo590 if I were looking for a cheaper firewood saw but I doubt the 450 could run a long bar as good. The 455 barely puts enough oil on the chain and thats with the oiler turned wide open
Yeah. Always look at the cuttings in these comparison videos as well as the conditions of the test and the tuning. I hear some bog and off carb tuning in some of these videos
455 is heavy for 1 reason its a firewood cutting saw there super reliable units though. I use a 445 as my all rounder its a few pounds lighter than the rancher and much more suited to felling
Love the 445 ,?was going to get the 460 but an 18 “ bar is pretty well perfect for the trees I’m dropping. I’ve cut over 30 faces with it this summer and I’ll tell you try out some different chains
No doubt for me, if you're not a professional and want an all-around chainsaw, go for the 450 which I chose ! The 455 is just 8% more powerful but is 22% heavier ! Less than 5 kg is much better than 6 kg, believe me ! But if you don't mind carrying hours long a 6 kg chainsaw, you'd better go for the 460 rather than the 455 ! Actually, the 455 has no reason to remain in the catalog.
@@seanpuffer8436 the 460 is the same saw with a bigger stroke crank. 32mm stroke instead of 30 in the 455. will make the 460 5cc bigger, and 0.2 more hp. the weight is about the same.
Chainsaw comparisons are tricky. Without running the same bar and chain, you have added variables. The 455 is not tuned as well as the 450 and the chain seems better on the 450. That said, people sleep on the 50cc saws but they all rip.
I was trying to see if the chain on my 455 could be exchanged with 450 . The 455 chain looks thinner and slightly smaller . When I put it on it clicked ? My 455 blew a piston but I have 3 nice chains . The 455 chain looks wimpy but if it’s thinner it will cut quicker? Less wood chip smaller wood chip.
Aia e👍. Lantul e praf...dar multi se uita ,putini cunosc,mai ales ca am modelul asta de drujba si stiu cum taie...si am mai vazut multe clipuri unde unele modele erau "trase-n jos" din lant pt a evidentia alte modele ori alte marci
Viewers are given NO clue about chains, New? Old? Worn out VS new? chain widths? NOT what viewers are concerned about. Come back when better rehearsed. For those who Know, Husqvarna is not pronounced Husq--UH-- varna, Husqvarna representives cringe when they Hear UH!!!😡
All right - let's try to pronounce the brand name 'Husqvarna' correct. It is NOT pronounced like 'Haskevarna' - it's a Swedish name and the correct pronounciation is 'Huus-kvarna' (which also happens to be the name of the Swedish town the company origins from).
