FELCO 100/92 - Replacement Thumb Catch Kit

FELCO 100/92 Replacement Thumb Catch Kit

The FELCO 100/92 is the genuine locking mechanism replacement kit specifically designed for the FELCO 100 "Cut and Hold" rose and flower shears. Because the FELCO 100 uses a specialized head to grip stems after cutting, maintaining a secure lock is essential for protecting the delicate gripping components and the sharpened blade. This kit includes the thumb catch lever, the spring washer, and the screw required to restore the tool's safety functionality. Manufactured in Switzerland, this kit ensures your shears remain securely closed when not in use, preserving the precision of the "cut and hold" system.

Best For Florists and rose growers using the FELCO 100 who need to fix a loose or broken safety catch to ensure the tool stays safely locked in a pocket or apron.

Key Features

• Model-Specific Compatibility: Precision-engineered for a perfect mechanical fit with the FELCO 100 flower shears, ensuring the catch aligns perfectly with the handle pin.

• Complete Hardware Set: Includes all the necessary components for a full installation: the thumb lever (2/10), the screw (2/13), and the spring washer (2/12).

• Hardened Steel Durability: Crafted from high-quality Swiss steel to withstand the repeated opening and closing cycles common in high-volume floral work.

• Consistent Tension: The included spring washer provides the exact friction needed to prevent the catch from flopping or accidentally engaging while you are thinning or harvesting flowers.

Oversized Item Delivery Options

Oversized, heavy, and structural goods ship via specialist freight. Freight is calculated at checkout from estimated packaged volumetric or physical weight. Carrier depot audits may adjust the rate — if the increase exceeds 10%, we will contact you before processing.

Available options include:

✔ Delivery to your closest depot for pickup — default method
✔ Direct delivery — requires an operational forklift on site unless Tailgate Delivery has been specifically requested and quoted (contact us — this cannot be selected at checkout)
✔ Tailgate hydraulic lift delivery — must be specifically requested; contact us for a quote (not available as a checkout option; extra fees apply; required if you do not have a forklift)
✔ 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
• Any carton or consignment over 25–30kg (or over 200cm) must be palletised
• Without a specifically requested and paid Tailgate Delivery quote, palletised freight requires a forklift on site — otherwise the carrier will redirect to the nearest depot
• Bulky and oversized items cannot be delivered to a PO Box — provide a physical street address
• Failed deliveries, locked gates, unattended sites, or incorrect business/forklift declarations may incur carrier redelivery, demurrage, and restocking fees as set out in our Terms & Conditions

Business Delivery:

• Selecting a business/commercial delivery rate warrants that the address has an operational forklift and certified operator during business hours
• If the carrier cannot unload, the consignment may be redirected to a depot and secondary fees may apply
• Additional fees may apply for failed delivery attempts due to lack of appropriate unloading equipment

See our Terms & Conditions (Article 8) for full freight and delivery rules.

Important Note on Availability & Shipping

Our warehouse is a logistics hub, not a retail showroom. Listing a product online does not mean it is stored at our Thomastown warehouse — many lines ship from supplier hubs (split fulfilment may apply).

How lead times work:

• Product page ETA: The Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA) / lead-time badge shown on the product page at checkout is the agreed delivery timeframe for that order under Australian Consumer Law.
• Metro baselines: Advertised ETAs apply to standard metropolitan zones. Regional and remote addresses may take longer and may attract surcharges.
• Peak seasons: Orders in March–May, August–October, EOFY (June), Black Friday/Cyber Monday (November), and Christmas/New Year (December–January) may automatically add a 2–4 week buffer beyond the product page ETA.
• Supplier-dependent / backordered items: If stock is delayed, we will notify you with a revised ETA. You then have 7 days to accept the new timeframe or cancel for a full refund.
• Adloheat: Custom-made products from Adloheat (Pakenham, VIC) may take 4–12 weeks depending on the order.

Full fulfilment, cancellation, and freight rules are in our Terms & Conditions.
