A cutting chain for cutting mineral or metallic materials has central drive links with a projection. Pairs of two side members are positioned laterally at the central drive links. The central drive links and the side member pairs are pivotably connected to each other. At least two cutting members are arranged sequentially in running direction of the cutting chain and each have one pair of side members and an abrasive cutting element connecting the two side members to each other. A drive link is arranged between the two cutting members and the projection of the drive link projects into a space between the cutting elements. The cutting chain has a cutout arranged such that a maximum sag of the cutting chain, at which the projection of the drive link comes into contact with one of the cutting elements, is enlarged compared to the same cutting chain without cutout.

A drilling and cutting device for both drilling and cutting through large objects is provided. The drilling and cutting device provides a plurality of cutting elements spaced apart and connected along a cutting chain that is operatively connected to a driven gear. The cutting chain is mounted along a periphery of a guide bar adapted to force the cutting chain to move on a certain path laterally, longitudinally or rotatably when selectively engaged to a mounting assembly.

An element for serial configuration with an adjacent element in an abrasive tool, wherein the element is arranged to be mounted on a flexible drive carrier having a drive direction D. The element comprising at least one protruding member extending in a direction parallel to the drive direction D. The at least one protruding member being configured to overlap with the adjacent element at least when the flexible drive carrier has a straight configuration, and to reduce a width of a gap G formed between the element and the adjacent element when the flexible drive carrier is configured bent in an arcuate form.

A quick tensioning system applicable to handheld chainsaws is provided wherein, during chain re-tensioning, the chain guiding bar remains firmly anchored to the bar holder and guiding means are provided to retract the motorized driving sprocket versus said guiding bar. The system includes a guide interposed between a stationary bar holding body and a motor body. This allows a linear or a rotation relative movement between the sliding driving sprocket and the stationary guiding bar. A drive is provided by means of a screw that an operator can easily operate via a knob conveniently mounted nearby the chainsaw handle.

Embodiments herein provide a high stability saw chain comprising a first drive link including a first mating surface; a second drive link including a second mating surface; a first tie strap coupling the first drive link to the second drive link; wherein the first mating surface of the first drive link is configured to contact the second mating surface of the second drive link when the first and second drive links traverse an elongate portion of a guide bar to prevent reverse articulation of the saw chain less than a minimum radius of 20 inches.
