FELCO 6/3 - Replacement Blade

FELCO 6/3 Replacement Blade

The FELCO 6/3 is a genuine bypass cutting blade precision-engineered for FELCO’s compact and ergonomic pruning shears. Crafted from premium hardened steel, this blade is designed to provide the clean, surgical accuracy required for fine pruning and viticulture. Because it is intended for smaller-handed tools or ergonomic models, the blade features a slightly more tapered profile to allow for better maneuverability in tight branches. Replacing a worn or damaged blade with this original Swiss-made part ensures that your shears maintain their perfect alignment and effortless cutting feel, protecting both your hand and the health of your plants.

Best For Users of the FELCO 6 (Standard Compact) or FELCO 12 (Ergonomic Compact) who require a high-precision edge for orchards, vineyards, or ornamental gardening.

Key Features

• High-Carbon Hardened Steel: Manufactured with Swiss precision and heat-treated to ensure a razor-sharp edge that remains durable even under intensive professional use.

• Compact Bypass Geometry: The shape is specifically optimized for the FELCO 6 and 12, facilitating a smooth "bypass" motion that prevents crushing and promotes rapid plant healing.

• Integrated Sap Groove: Features a forged-in groove that helps clear debris and sticky sap away from the cutting surface, keeping the tool from gumming up during work.

• Wire-Cutting Notch: Includes a small, specialized notch at the base of the blade for safe cutting of small-diameter wires, protecting the main edge from nicks and damage.

• Simple Replacement: Designed for an exact fit, allowing you to swap the blade quickly by removing the center bolt, instantly restoring the original performance of your tool.

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.
