FELCO 2/16 - Replacement Locking Segment (Toothed Clip)

FELCO 2/16 Replacement Locking Segment (Toothed Clip)

The FELCO 2/16 is the genuine factory replacement locking segment, a high-precision toothed clip that is the backbone of FELCO’s famous blade adjustment system. This component sits directly over the pivot nut, using its internal teeth to "bite" into the nut and lock it in place. This mechanical interface ensures that once you have set the perfect blade tension, it cannot loosen during use, regardless of how many thousands of cuts you perform. Precision-engineered in Switzerland, this part is vital for maintaining the clean, surgical bypass action that prevents plant damage and reduces hand strain.

Best For Professional users whose pruner tension keeps slipping during work, or those performing a full rebuild on nearly any professional FELCO model.

Key Features

• Extensive Model Compatibility: One of the most versatile FELCO parts, fitting a massive range of tools including the FELCO 2, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 17, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 30, 31, and 100.

• Toothed Micro-Adjustment: Features a high-precision toothed profile that allows for incremental tension settings, enabling you to calibrate the pruners to your specific hand strength and branch thickness.

• Vibration-Proof Stability: Acts as a mechanical fail-safe, preventing the center nut from rotating even under the high-vibration and lateral pressure of professional orchard and vineyard work.

• Hardened Swiss Steel: Stamped from industrial-grade high-carbon steel, ensuring the teeth remain sharp and do not round off even after years of seasonal adjustments.

• Essential Safety Hardware: Maintains the structural alignment of the bypass blades, ensuring they do not overlap or cross incorrectly, which protects both the user and the tool.

Ideal For (Uses)

• Precision Tool Calibration: The necessary component to re-zero your pruners after sharpening or replacing the cutting blade.

• Fixing Loose Blades: Resolving issues where the pivot nut back-turns during use, causing the blades to "chew" through wood rather than slicing it.

• Lopper Maintenance: Perfectly compatible with FELCO 20, 21, 22, and 23 loppers, ensuring the same high-precision adjustment found in hand shears is available for heavy-duty tools.

• Professional Refurbishment: Replacing worn or bent segments during a seasonal tool overhaul to ensure the locking system remains 100% reliable.

Pro Tip: To find the "sweet spot," tighten the pivot nut until the blades are just snug, then place the 2/16 segment so the teeth engage. If the screw hole doesn't align with the handle, adjust the nut slightly (no more than 1/16th of a turn) to find the nearest matching tooth position.

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.

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).
