High quality bypass lopper for pruning trees & shrubs in the home & garden. The cutting blade of this lopper slides past a counter-blade in a scissor action hence the name bypass. The pivot bolt of the Bahco lopper is offset from the natural centre line of the tool. This unique design feature creates a slicing motion during cutting, which greatly assists the pruning of live wood & spreads the cut over a larger area of the blade for increased life. The hook shape of the Bahco lopper counterblade enables a large cutting diameter & holds the branch steady during cutting. The sap groove is a recess which reduces the area of contact between blade & counter-blade & results in less friction & sticking. The blades are made from blue steel. Type: Bypass. Length: 60cm. Cutting Capacity: 35mm.
