Burgon & Ball - RHS Telescopic Ratchet Lopper – Heavy-Duty Five-Stage Power Lopper

Burgon & Ball RHS Telescopic Ratchet Lopper – Heavy-Duty Five-Stage Power Lopper

The Burgon & Ball Telescopic Ratchet Lopper is the ultimate heavy-duty solution for the most demanding pruning tasks. Endorsed by the Royal Horticultural Society, this tool is specifically engineered to handle wood that standard loppers cannot. It features a sophisticated five-stage ratchet mechanism that effectively doubles your cutting power, allowing you to slice through substantial branches up to 4cm in diameter. Built with high-carbon steel and lightweight aluminium, it offers a professional-grade alternative to a pruning saw for thick, woody growth.

Best For: Gardeners tackling exceptionally tough, thick, or dead wood who require maximum mechanical advantage to reduce physical effort.

Key Features

• 100% Increased Cutting Power: The five-stage ratchet mechanism gradually builds pressure through multiple clicks, providing up to twice the cutting power of regular loppers.
• Heavy-Duty Capacity: Engineered to cut through branches up to 4cm in diameter, making it ideal for clearing old wood and thick, established growth without a saw.
• High-Carbon Steel Blades: Premium blades designed for maximum edge retention and durability against the friction of heavy-duty ratcheting.
• Extendable Reach: The telescopic handles feature an easy-to-use twist-lock mechanism, extending the length from 72cm up to 104cm for superior leverage and reach.
• Ergonomic Lightweight Design: Despite its power, the ultra-lightweight aluminium shafts and comfortable rubber grips ensure the tool remains manageable for overhead work.
