  • Garden and DIY enthusiasts know that lopping lofty, light-blocking, or potentially hazardous branches can be a challenging task, especially in inaccessible areas that are high or hard to reach. This is why Ryobi® are proud to unveil their new 18V cordless lopper, designed to remove the effort when it comes to pruning. The hurdles of development for the Lopper range were focused around weight reduction and cutting performance. We have successfully created a light weight, intuitive and powerful range of Loppers compatible with our RYOBI 18v ONE+ system for all of your pruning needs.

  • Both the Handheld and Pole Loppers enable seamless cutting in challenging situations. This is thanks to an 18v motor combined with high- quality bypass blades to provide 150kg/m of torque and razor- sharp cutting. DIY users will no doubt enjoy being able to cut branches quickly and easily. The Handheld Lopper packs a powerful cut for something so light. Weighing just 1.5 kg, it’s easy to use for longer periods and makes the pruning experience more comfortable. The Pole Lopper with its extended reach allows the user to easily trim and prune in the most hard to reach places.

  • Social Impact: The Handheld and Pole Loppers both allow users to prune in hard to reach places with ease, effortlessly cut each branch in under 3 seconds and provides 100+ cuts with a single battery. This averts the need to climb ladders or objects to reach the overgrown area in need of trimming. The light weight and compact designs reduces bodily strain over extended use periods Commercial Impact: Our 18v batteries are compatible with all power tools and garden tools in the cordless system, which means users can expand the tools when they needed, without buying extra batteries, or chargers.

  • HIGH- QUALITY BYPASS BLADE - The lopper provides a 250Nm of torque for quickly completing any pruning task. LIGHT WEIGHT - Trimming for any user across any siz ed task POWERFUL - 18v motor effortlessly cuts through branches up to 32mm thick TELESCOPIC EXTENSION (POLE LOPPER) - The telescopic Pole Lopper boasts the additional benefit of working in extended reach applications. It extends from 2.5m up to 3.6m, enabling users to keep larger trees healthy from the safety of the ground. PIVOTING CUTTING HEAD (POLE LOPPER) - The Pole Lopper features a pivoting cutting head, which enables multiple cutting angles (up to 230°) and makes lighter work of awkward situations.
