FELCO 8 - One-Hand Pruning Shear - High Performance Ergonomic Model

FELCO 8 One-Hand Pruning Shear - High Performance Ergonomic Model

The FELCO 8 is the ergonomic evolution of the classic bypass shear, designed to provide maximum power with significantly less strain. While it shares the legendary cutting capacity of the FELCO 2, the FELCO 8 features a redesigned handle shape that aligns the tool perfectly with your hand and wrist. This professional-grade workhorse is engineered for those who perform heavy pruning tasks and require a tool that works in harmony with their natural movement.

Best For Professional gardeners and landscapers with large hands who require a heavy-duty tool for intensive, all-day pruning while minimizing the risk of repetitive strain or muscle fatigue.

Key Features

• Enhanced Ergonomic Geometry: The handles are specifically angled and contoured to prevent the tool from slipping in your hand, ensuring that your wrist remains in a neutral, comfortable position.

• High-Performance Bypass Head: Features a tapered cutting head made of premium hardened steel, allowing for easy access to awkward branches and delivering surgical precision on every cut.

• Drop-Forged Aluminum Handles: Built with FELCO's signature lightweight forged aluminum alloy, providing industrial-strength durability backed by a lifetime guarantee.

• Integrated Shock Absorption: Equipped with cushioned rubber shock absorbers that soften the "click" at the end of each cut, protecting your joints during long hours of repetitive use.

• Micrometric Precision Adjustment: Utilizes FELCO’s unique nut and serrated washer system, allowing you to easily adjust the blade tension for a clean, effortless slice through wood up to 25mm.

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: Can take up to 2 weeks to arrive.

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.
