Arti Tec Top Grafting Tool – Professional Top-Work Companion for Large-Diameter Stems

ARTI TEC TOP GRAFTING TOOL – Professional Top-Work Companion for Large-Diameter Stems

Designed for serious horticulturalists, orchardists, and propagation specialists, the ARTI TEC Top Grafting Tool provides the power, precision, and cutting consistency required for top grafting onto stems up to 45 mm in diameter. Manufactured in Italy to exceptional professional standards, this tool creates perfectly shaped graft cuts that match the pattern produced by the ARTI TEC 4T Grafting Tool—allowing both tools to work in seamless combination for fast, secure, and high-success grafting.

Best For Horticultural professionals, orchard managers, nurseries, and dedicated grafters who need a heavy-duty top-grafting tool for thicker stems, fruit trees, ornamental stock, and advanced propagation tasks.

Key Features

• Designed for Large-Diameter Stems: Cuts stems up to 45 mm, making it ideal for top-working older trees or grafting onto robust rootstock that is too thick for standard pliers.
  
  
• Perfect Pattern Matching: Engineered to cut the exact same graft pattern as the ARTI TEC 4T Grafting Tool, allowing the two tools to be used together for quick, precise, and perfectly aligned graft unions.
  
  
• Professional Italian Construction: Made in Italy with high-grade materials for durability, strength, and long-term reliability under regular use.
  
  
• Secure, Fast Graft Formation: Produces clean, uniform cuts that lock neatly into place, improving graft stability and increasing the likelihood of successful take.
  
  
• Complementary to 4T Tool: Works as a top-grafting companion tool—ideal for operations where both small and large graft sizes are required.

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.
