ARS 130DX-Y pruning shears
ARS 130DX-Y pruning shears – 19 mm cutting capacity
Compact size, accurate cuts
The ARS 130DX series is built specifically for smaller palms. The 184 mm overall length and the shorter grip span give a comfortable, fatigue-free hold even during longer pruning sessions. The 42 mm blade cuts cleanly up to 19 mm.
Why the yellow handle?
Yellow is the most visible colour, standing out in dense growth or at dusk. Every colour in the series is built to the same dimensions and performance, so the choice comes down to preference and practicality.
