Husqvarna 542i XP 36V 16″ Chainsaw (Skin Only)

Husqvarna 542i XP® Battery Chainsaw – Skin Only

The Husqvarna 542i XP® Without Battery and Charger is a professional-grade cordless chainsaw designed for arborists and demanding cutting work where precision, speed, and responsiveness matter. It delivers petrol-like performance with the clean, quiet efficiency of battery power, and this skin-only version excludes the battery and charger for users already on Husqvarna’s 36V BLi-X platform.

Powered by a high-performance 36V brushless motor, the 542i XP® produces 1.8 kW of output power and reaches a very fast chain speed of 24 m/s, giving it excellent cutting performance in both pruning and more demanding tree work. It is built around a 16-inch bar setup and professional SP21G chain, designed for smooth, efficient cutting with strong control through hardwood and green timber.

One of its standout features is the integrated centrifugal clutch, which gives a more “petrol-like” feel in the cut by improving response and allowing better control during tough cuts or mid-load restarts. This makes it especially useful for arborists working in the canopy or on technical removals where precision and instant response are critical.

The saw is also designed with professional usability in mind, featuring an intuitive keypad for quick control, retained bar nuts for easier maintenance, and a low-maintenance brushless drive system that reduces downtime and servicing needs. It’s part of Husqvarna’s 36V battery ecosystem, allowing compatibility across a wide range of tools in the same platform.

Lightweight yet powerful, the 542i XP® is built for professional users who want high-end cutting performance without the constraints of petrol engines—just add a compatible battery and it’s ready for serious work.
