About the STIHL MSA 200 C-B Cordless Chainsaw (Shell Only)
STIHL MSA 200 C-B Cordless Chainsaw: A Clean and Credible Alternative to Petrol Power
When you need a serious but versatile cutting tool on site, the STIHL MSA 200 C-B is a compelling choice. Designed as part of the company’s professional AP System, this STIHL handheld chainsaw delivers impressive levels of performance in a lightweight, battery-driven format. It is ideal for property maintenance, pruning, and general site work where efficient operation and cutting precision truly matter.
Offering 20% more cutting performance than the MSA 160 and producing zero direct emissions, this STIHL battery chainsaw is a highly credible alternative to a STIHL petrol chainsaw for both professional and demanding domestic users.
Sold as Shell Only
Please note, this STIHL cordless chainsaw is supplied as a shell only. The battery and charger must be purchased separately if required.
Powerful Performance with Low Weight and Noise Output
Fitted with a 35 cm (14-inch) guide bar and a ¼-inch PM3 saw chain, this STIHL battery powered chainsaw produces clean, accurate cuts across a range of jobs. It handles pruning, firewood preparation and timber processing with confidence. It can also fell small trees up to 25 cm in diameter.
Despite its strength, the MSA 200CB remains remarkably agile. Weighing just 3.53 kg without the battery, it feels very well balanced in the hand. The 36 V lithium-ion battery system makes it especially suitable for noise-sensitive areas, producing only 85 dB(A) at the operator’s ear.
High-Efficiency EC Motor
At the heart of this STIHL professional chainsaw sits a compact EC motor. It is engineered for efficiency, low maintenance and long service life. With a maximum output of 1.50 kW, it delivers robust cutting power.
The motor’s design reduces internal wear and helps maintain consistent performance across demanding tasks. If you’re looking for the best STIHL chainsaw for regular use on site, this efficient delivery of power gives the MSA 200CB a real advantage.
Constant Power Throughout the Charge
One of the standout features of STIHL battery saws is their intelligent electronics. The MSA 200 C-B benefits from STIHL’s Constant Power technology. This ensures the tool maintains its high performance even as the battery charge decreases.
Unlike some battery tools that fade over time, this STIHL battery chainsaw continues to cut with full power until the battery is completely depleted, making it a dependable choice for professional users.
Comfortable Handling and Precise Control
Ease of use is central to the design of this STIHL handheld chainsaw. The ergonomic rear control handle features soft-grip components for improved comfort and secure handling, even in damp conditions. The layout supports two-handed operation, allowing stable and controlled cutting in various positions.
The trigger system incorporates a potentiometer function for infinitely variable chain speed. This gives you full control when working around shrubs or carrying out detailed woodworking. The machine remains unlocked during operation as long as one hand stays on the rear handle, reducing interruptions during use.
Accurate Cutting with Sturdy Bumper Spikes
This corded STIHL electric chainsaw includes sturdy metal bumper spikes, which provide a firm grip on timber. They help anchor the saw against the wood, allowing smoother guidance and improved cutting accuracy.
Combined with the ¼-inch PM3 chain, the result is clean, efficient cutting across a wide range of tasks.
Smart Features for Simple Maintenance
The MSA 200 C-B STIHL chainsaw is designed to keep downtime to a minimum. STIHL’s Quick Chain Tensioning allows you to adjust the chain without using tools. A simple turn of the adjustment wheel loosens or tightens the chain, and the guide bar secures automatically when the sprocket cover is tightened.
A transparent oil tank makes it easy to monitor chain lubrication at a glance. This helps prevent dry running and supports efficient operation during longer sessions.
Built for Everyday Working Conditions
This STIHL pro chainsaw is IPX4 certified, meaning it is protected against splash water from all directions. It can therefore be used in damp weather or light rain, making it suitable for year-round outdoor maintenance tasks.
When paired with the recommended AP 300 S battery, working time can reach up to 50 minutes on a single charge, depending on the material and workload. This makes the MSA200CB STIHL battery powered chainsaw an excellent choice for professional users.

First class
It’s hard to believe just how much power the saw produces, it is equally as effective as my petrol saw with half the fuss.
Tony Rickards –
chain oil tube was blocked at inner end, difficult to clear, after clearing with a steel pin oil slow to come through, now works OK
Mr Sutcliffe –
Cuts through thick 3″ + branches & stems easily as it should.As a first time chainsaw user I had to study the instructions for installing the chain but this is straightforward.
William Earnshaw –
Very useful for smaller jobs like cutting up firewood or lopping branches from trees. I still use my petrol saw for the bigger jobs, but this is a very nice complement with enough power to easily cut branches about 1 foot in diameter.
