Makita 221464-7 Spare Part - CHAIN SPROCKET

Genuine Makita part 221464-7 — 6‑tooth drive sprocket (sprocket‑6) manufactured for Makita cordless chainsaws. This hardened metal sprocket engages the drive links and transfers motor torque to the chain; it’s the same 6‑tooth replacement shown in Makita parts diagrams and listed for the DUC/XCU series.

Intended fit and chain spec: this sprocket is the 6‑tooth drive gear used with 3/8" LP chains (commonly used with .043" gauge setups on the matching Makita saws), so it restores proper chain tracking and reduces the grooving and hooking you see when a worn sprocket lets the chain slip.

Example models that this Makita 221464-7 is listed to fit include XCU series saws (examples: XCU03, XCU04, XCU06, XCU07 and related XCU models) and Makita DUC/DUC‑series cordless chainsaws (examples: DUC306, DUC353, DUC355, DUC356 and similar DUC models). Check your saw’s parts diagram to confirm placement (the part appears in the clutch/sprocket assembly in Makita diagrams).

What you’re getting: one original Makita 221464‑7 6‑tooth sprocket — machined metal construction for long wear life, direct replacement for the original drive sprocket, sized to drop onto the saw’s drive shaft and work with the factory snap/stop ring and sprocket cover. Ideal when the existing sprocket shows wear, hooking, or groove wear that’s causing poor chain tracking.

Note: verify your saw’s model number and the parts diagram before installing to ensure correct fit and chain pitch/gauge compatibility; the part number 221464‑7 is referenced on multiple Makita parts listings for the XCU/DUC family.
