ARS 140DX-W pruning shears
ARS 140DX-W pruning shears – 12 mm cutting capacity
When accuracy is what counts
The 140DX is deliberately built with a smaller, 12 mm cutting capacity. That is not a limitation but a specialisation: the shorter cutting edge is easier to control in tight spaces, among dense shoots, or in floristry where you need millimetre accuracy.
Why the white handle?
White gives a clean look and works well for indoor floristry. Every colour in the series is built to the same dimensions and performance, so the choice comes down to preference and practicality.

A versatile tool
According to the manufacturer's classification it is suited to fruit and vegetable growing, harvesting, nursery work, floristry, landscaping and even kitchen use. Its small size also makes it an obvious choice for camping. For finer flower stems, the stainless-steel ARS FL-18 flower shears is worth a look.

Frequently asked questions
What hand size are the ARS 140DX-W made for?
They are built specifically for smaller palms, with a shorter grip span for a comfortable hold.
Which colours does the 140DX series come in?
Green, pink, red, purple, white and yellow, all built to the same dimensions and performance. You will find them all in the table above.
Why is the cutting capacity smaller than on the 130DX?
The 140DX is made for fine work. The shorter cutting edge is easier to control in tight spaces, at the cost of cutting up to 12 mm instead of the 19 mm of the 130DX series.
The ARS 140DX-W pruning shears are the white-handled version of the 140DX series: 184 mm long, with a 42 mm blade and a 12 mm cutting capacity. Designed for smaller hands and floristry and harvesting, where accuracy matters more than raw force. For thicker branches, the ARS 130DX series is the better fit.
High Carbon Steel
Carbon steel is sharp, wear-resistant and easy to sharpen. It offers great precision and durability, ideal for professional pruning. Regular maintenance greatly extends its lifespan.
Hard Chrome Coating
Hard chrome-plated blades offer extra protection against rust and wear. The smooth surface resists plant sap and retains its sharpness for longer. Designed for heavy-duty use.
For Smaller Hands
A design specifically built for smaller hand sizes. The tool has a shorter grip span and handle, making it easier and more comfortable to control. It provides a secure grip and significantly reduces hand fatigue during long pruning sessions.
