FELCO 2/3 - Replacement Blade

FELCO 2/3 Replacement Blade

The FELCO 2/3 is the world-standard replacement bypass cutting blade, designed to restore the surgical precision of your FELCO pruning shears. As the most critical component of the tool, this blade is crafted from premium hardened steel, ensuring it maintains a razor-sharp edge through thousands of clean, effortless cuts. Replacing a chipped or heavily worn blade is a simple way to extend the life of your shears indefinitely, preventing the "crushing" of plant tissue that occurs with dull tools. This genuine Swiss-made part is the exact original blade found on several of FELCO’s most iconic models, ensuring a perfect fit and factory-level performance.

Best For Professional arborists, viticulturists, and serious home gardeners who own the legendary FELCO 2 or its variants and want to maintain a "good as new" cutting experience.

Key Features

• Premium Hardened Steel: Manufactured with high-carbon steel that has been heat-treated to achieve the perfect balance of hardness and flexibility, allowing the blade to hold its edge longer.

• Universal "2-Series" Fit: Fully compatible with FELCO’s most popular models, including the FELCO 2, 4, 11, and 400.

• Wire-Cutting Notch: Features a specialized notch at the base of the blade, allowing you to cut small-diameter wires without damaging the primary cutting edge—essential for vineyard and fencing work.

• Integrated Sap Groove: Includes a forged sap groove on the cutting head that helps prevent the blade from sticking when pruning resinous or "juicy" plants, ensuring a smoother operation.

• Easy Installation: Designed for straightforward replacement; by removing the center bolt, the old blade can be swapped for the 2/3 in minutes, instantly restoring the tool’s efficiency.

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.
