This anvil lopper is a professional quality model, specially equipped for intensive use. It is the ideal tool for pruning dead or mature wood up to 45mm (2in) in diameter. A sliding lever system multiplies the cutting force by up to +50%, reducing the effort required and ensuring the best comfort of use. It is a high-quality tool. The blade is made of Xylan-coated steel for an even sharper edge, equipped with an adjustment cam that extends the lifespan of the anvil by 4 times. Its long handles made of lightweight and sturdy aluminium allow for great manoeuvrability and even easier access.

The Bahco P173-SL-85 compound anvil lopper is a high-quality professional model that is both highly efficient and durable. Its double-edged ground blade is made of Xylan-coated steel for even easier penetration of hard and dry wood. A sliding lever system allows the blade to open optimally without requiring any additional effort, multiplying the cutting force by up to +50% and ensuring the best user comfort. It also features an adjustable cam that is useful for bringing the blade closer to the anvil as they separate under the cutting action, ensuring a clean cut with each pruning and extending the anvil's lifespan by 4 times. Its long 85cm (34in) handles made of solid, lightweight aluminium allow the user to easily reach high branches and stems. This is one of the sharpest and most durable loppers, perfect for frequent and intensive pruning of dead and mature wood up to 45mm (2in) in diameter. Spare parts are available. Made in France.

The compound anvil lopper combines the same type of head as anvil secateurs but on a larger scale, with longer handles that reach higher and less accessible branches. The upper blade is thin and sharp and comes into contact with the lower blade, which is made of a metal plate. This "anvil" ensures better grip on the branch to be cut and distributes the pressure applied. This tool is thus suitable for pruning dead or mature branches and stems that are very dry and hard. Avoid softer and greener wood as this tool would crush their tissues.

Detailed features

Directions for use Cuts green branches or live wood, measuring up to 3.5cm (1in) in diameter. It is ideal for subjects whose proportions require a wider-reaching tool. The blades are smooth and sharp. This model is better suited for non-fibrous wood. It can be used on all trees, conifers, bamboo, bushes, fruit trees, hedges, and climbing plants. Use it like a large pair of scissors, using both hands. Simply bring your hands together by pulling on the handles to close it. Clean the blades with alcohol after use to prevent the transmission of diseases from one plant to another, and to keep your tool in good condition for a long time (the sap from certain plants can damage the blades or make them sticky over time). Store this tool in a dry place, protected from bad weather.
