Cutting tooth for a saw chain

摘要

A cutter tooth has a base member with rivet openings spaced at a rivet spacing. A cutting element is attached by brazing to the base member at the upper edge of the base member. A depth limiter is provided on the base member in front of the cutting element. A chip recess is formed between depth limiter and cutting element. The depth limiter has an upright edge delimiting the chip recess. A forward contour of the lateral section of the cutting element and an inner contour of the chip recess define a corner point within the chip recess. The corner point is positioned at a first spacing relative to the upright edge of the depth limiter. The rivet spacing is divided by a perpendicular center plane positioned at a second spacing relative to the upright edge of the depth limiter. The first spacing is smaller than the second spacing.
