Frequently asked questions
What are loppers used for?
Loppers are large, two-handed manual cutting tools used for pruning. They are designed to cut branches up to 5 cm thick, ideal for shaping trees, shrubs, and hedges.
Which is better, bypass or anvil loppers?
Bypass loppers work like scissors, making clean cuts that are perfect for live wood and green stems. Anvil loppers have a straight blade that closes against a flat surface, making them better for cutting hard, dead, or dry branches. Your choice depends on the type of plants and branches you work with most.
How long do FELCO loppers last?
With proper care and maintenance, FELCO loppers can last for decades. All forged aluminum handle models carry a lifetime warranty, while non-forged handle models are covered by a 2-year warranty. Most parts are replaceable, so you can keep your tool in top condition for many years.
What is the difference between a lopper and a pruner?
The main difference is the size of the job. Secateurs are one-handed tools made for precise pruning of smaller stems and branches, while loppers have longer handles and are used with two hands, giving you more leverage for cutting larger and thicker branches.
