Description

If you have been producing exceptional pruning tools for as long as we have at FELCO you would understand why our thoughts go to every aspect of the experience. Comfort? We’ve got that covered with the FELCO 231 loppers due to the lightweight aluminium alloy handles. Considerations of grip; in this case the curved anvil which holds the branch tight. Quality and efficiency of cut? The hollow-ground blade that simply slices through wood up to 40mm. Our thoughts often result in innovative features, like the gearing system that delivers 65% more cutting strength to users from the minimum of effort. All of this thoughtfulness means that cutting large or small diameters at any height is almost effortless.
