ALPEN Wildhorn 32/2 - Replacement Counter-Blade

ALPEN Wildhorn 32/2 Replacement Counter-Blade

The ALPEN Wildhorn 32/2 is the genuine replacement counter-blade (anvil) specifically designed for the Wildhorn 32 professional electric pruning shears. While the cutting blade performs the slicing action, the counter-blade acts as the essential support "hook" that secures the branch in place. Precision-engineered to handle the 32mm cutting capacity of the ALPEN Wildhorn system, this component ensures that branches do not slip or twist during the power cycle. Replacing a worn, burred, or misaligned counter-blade is vital for maintaining the perfect bypass clearance, which prevents the tool from "chewing" the wood and ensures a clean, healthy cut every time.

Best For Landscapers, gardeners, and viticulturists using ALPEN Wildhorn 32 electric shears who need to restore the tool's original branch-holding stability and cutting alignment.

Key Features

• High-Strength Forged Steel: Constructed from premium-grade steel to provide maximum rigidity and resistance to deformation under the high mechanical torque of the electric motor.

• Deep-Hook Geometry: Specifically profiled to cradle branches up to 32mm, ensuring they remain centered and stable throughout the entire cutting motion for improved safety and accuracy.

• Precision Sap Groove: Features a machined channel to divert sap and organic debris away from the cutting surface, preventing the blades from sticking and maintaining fluid bypass action.

• Bypass Alignment Stability: Engineered to maintain the exact factory tolerances required for a clean "scissor-cut," reducing the risk of bark tearing or crushing delicate plant tissue.

• Direct Factory Fit: A genuine ALPEN replacement part that guarantees vibration-free operation and seamless integration with the Wildhorn 32 cutting head assembly.

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.
