PowerGear™ Bypass Lopper, Hook Head (S) L70 is a small and handy lopper which makes light work of twigs and lighter branches. Like its other family members, this lopper features handles made from FiberComp™ to make them extremely lightweight and strong. The patented PowerGear™ mechanism makes the cutting 3 times easier compared to standard mechanisms and the blades made from extra hard, corrosion resistant steel (CrMoV) ensuring that they stay sharper for longer. There is a non-stick PTFE coating on the upper blade to reduce friction and make cutting and cleaning easier. The hook head blades offer a distinct advantage when for example, heavy cutting of fresh wood.
