You'll notice Barnel's 20 years of experience the first time you use these ultra lightweight extruded aluminum telescoping pruners. This tool is ideal for light-duty, high production pruning. Using this tool, you'll be able safely, quickly and easily prune small to medium-sized branches and "suckers" without using a ladder. Features include single push button quick connecting telescopic extensions and a self-oiling center bolt. The rotating alternate hand grips feature inlaid thermoplastic rubber and will slide and lock anywhere on the pole. The Ultra-Reach pruners feature a "cut and hold" spring mechanism that automatically adjusts for various sized cuts and high carbon sword steel with a hard chrome finish. All pruners also include an easy-mount tri-edge saw blade for converting to a pole saw.
