Know before you buy
While the specific cutting capacity depends on the wood density, the bypass mechanism and 32-inch length are designed to handle branches up to 2 inches in diameter with ease.
PowerGear2 technology uses a geared mechanism to amplify your leverage. This reduces the physical effort required to make a cut, making it significantly easier to prune thicker branches compared to standard non-geared loppers.
No, this is a bypass lopper, which is specifically designed for live, green growth. Using it on hard, dead wood can damage the blades and compromise the precision of the cut.
Yes, the high-carbon steel blades can be sharpened using a standard sharpening tool. Keeping the blades clean and sharp is essential for maintaining the clean, healthy cuts required for plant recovery.
Despite their 32-inch length and durable steel construction, the loppers feature an ergonomic design with rubberized grips to minimize hand fatigue. The aluminum handles help keep the overall weight manageable for longer pruning sessions.
Yes, it includes a built-in safety lock that keeps the blades securely closed when not in use, making it safer to store in your shed or garage.
