ProFix Long-Handle Garden Lopper, 40 mm Cutting Capacity

What it is for

Pruning tools are bought on one number: the diameter they will actually cut. Everything else — handle length, blade finish, whether the mechanism is bypass or anvil — follows from what is in front of you. A bypass blade makes a clean cut on living wood; an anvil blade crushes its way through dead, dry branches that a bypass pruner would simply spring open on.

This listing is the Long-Handle Garden Lopper, with carbon steel blades, anti-rust coating, and aluminium alloy handles, rated for a 40 mm cut. The blades are replaceable and the pivot is a bolted joint rather than a rivet, so the tool can be re-tensioned instead of thrown away when it starts to bind.

Before you order

Check the size and quantity against your own job first: most returns in this category come from ordering the wrong diameter, finish or pack size rather than from a fault. If you are unsure, send us a photo or a measurement and we will confirm which variant you need.
