Never had a spur to know.  660mag may know. He has a 350.

dug up some info on SPUR


Oregon Power Mate Rim & Drum for (.325" x 7) Husqvarna & Jonsered 345, 346, 350, 351, 353

This professional drive system includes a splined drum (clutch cup) with a replaceable rim. The rim floats freely on the spline, allowing the saw chain to align with the groove of the bar. Comes complete with .325" x 7 tooth spline. Drive sprocket bearing sold separately.

Note Requires a special clutch tool 31118 to replace. If you are converting a Husqvarna 346, 351 or 353 from a spur sprocket you need to purchase #503 89 21 02 oil pump drive gear as well. If you are converting a Husqvarna 357 or 359 from a spur system you need to purchase #503 91 27 03 oil pump drive gear. This rim & drum system has a small 7 spline and uses RSS rims. If you would like to run larger RSD rims, use part number ORF 108565.

The IPLs tell me the same, comparing the 350 setup with spur to the 346xp one with rim.

The small rim drums did not hold up for us. We switched over to the big spline and never had a problem after.

The issue with those is that you can't run .325x7 or x8 on them.

That was no issue for us as all saws ran 3/8 anyway.

Bump for those guys still learning.

Yes there was a way to put a 3/8 8 on a 346. Not that you should. But for testing purposes you can. The 3/8 7 was always fastest in cant cutting.

I had the like new 350 for probably 4 years but never messed with the 7 tooth .325 spur. I have since sold it a couple years ago.

Jim I think I put that standard spline set up on your 346. The guy from Oz wanted the small set up on the ported 346 I sent him so we traded set ups.

Am I correct in my memory?

Yes, you swapped a splined clutch bell / 7 tooth rim and worm from a 357XP onto my saw so you could use the existing small spline hub from my saw onto his.
