ARS - Replacement Cutting Blade for VS-9XR & VS-9XZ

Restore the precision and effortless cutting action of your ARS pruning shears with the VS-9X2 replacement blade. Designed specifically for compatibility across the robust 9-series models, this genuine ARS spare part is crafted to restore the 'snappy' performance and clean cut required for demanding arboricultural and horticultural work. Replacing a worn or damaged blade is the most effective way to ensure your tools continue to meet the exacting standards of daily professional use.

Best For Professional landscapers, arborists, and gardeners who rely on their VS-9 series shears for high-volume, precision pruning. This blade is ideal for those who require a tool that remains sharp, resists sap build-up, and provides long-term reliability in challenging outdoor environments.

Key Features

• Genuine ARS Spare Part: Engineered to the exact manufacturing specifications of the VS-9 range, ensuring a perfect fit and restoring the tool to its original, high-performance state.

• Premium Materials & Coating: Forged from high carbon steel for superior edge retention and ease of sharpening. The blade features a hard-chrome plating, which provides a protective layer that ensures excellent rust resistance and a smooth surface that actively resists sap and debris accumulation.

• KWF Profi Certified Performance: As part of a tool range carrying the internationally recognised KWF Profi mark, this blade is built to satisfy rigorous standards of durability, safety, and ergonomic efficiency under real-world conditions.

• Sustainable Maintenance: Replacing the blade rather than the entire tool is a cost-effective and environmentally conscious choice. It extends the functional life of your equipment and supports a more sustainable approach to professional tool management.

Oversized Item Delivery Options

Since oversized items require special handling, we may need to provide a custom freight quote for your order and will contact you with an updated shipping rate.

Available options include:

✔ Delivery to your closest depot for pickup - default method
✔ Direct delivery - requires forklift on site
✔ Direct delivery with tailgate lift truck (extra fees apply)
✔ Forklift loading at our warehouse (no extra charge if you arrange your own freight)
✔ Direct truck delivery (available in Victoria)

Important Notes:

• Shipping costs vary by location and method
• Because of the forklift requirement, delivery to the nearest depot is the default option and will be the method used unless you contact us to request otherwise.
• Bulky and oversized items cannot be delivered to a PO Box - please provide a physical street address for delivery.

Business Delivery:

• Business delivery is available for commercial customers only
• If you select business delivery and your products are bulky, it is your responsibility to ensure you have appropriate equipment (including forklifts) to unload products from the delivery truck
• If you select business delivery and you are not a business, you risk your product not being delivered and may incur additional fees to retrieve your order
• Business delivery customers must provide a valid business address and contact information
• Additional fees may apply for failed delivery attempts due to lack of appropriate unloading equipment

Let us know your preference, and we'll arrange the best solution for you!

Important Note on Availability & Shipping

Our warehouse serves as our office and logistics centre rather than a retail showroom. Because we ship from multiple locations and manage high-turnover stock, not all items are available for immediate pickup.

Lead Times:

• In-Stock Items: Usually ready for dispatch the same day.
• Supplier-Dependent Items: Usually take 2–8 weeks to arrive, depending on supplier availability. Products from Adloheat may take 8–12 weeks to manufacture—they are made to order in Australia by a small business, and longer lead times reflect the care put into quality.

While we strive for fast delivery, some timelines are subject to supplier availability and are beyond our control. We appreciate your patience as we source the best quality gear for your project.

Biosecurity & Interstate Shipping Restrictions

Due to strict state biosecurity regulations, we are unable to ship some products to certain states and territories:

• Potting Mixes cannot be shipped to Western Australia (WA), the Northern Territory (NT), or Tasmania (TAS).
• Seeds cannot be shipped to Western Australia (WA).

Orders placed for these items to restricted states will be cancelled and refunded. It is the customer's responsibility to ensure that the items being ordered can lawfully be delivered to their state or territory.
