Description

Hedge shears angled blade 250 mm FELCO 250-57 feature a 13° blade angle relative to the handle axis. This geometry improves access to hedge surfaces and simplifies horizontal trimming. The 250 mm HSS steel blade is chrome-plated to resist abrasion. Hollow-cast aluminum handles keep the total weight at 1020 g. Shock-absorbing buffers are mounted on both grips to reduce impact force during repeated cuts. Five wire-cutting notches are machined into the inner blade edge for cutting tie wires without damaging the main cutting edge.

Construction and Materials of Hedge Shears Angled Blade 250 mm

Blade Design and Coating

The cutting blade is forged from HSS tool steel and chrome-plated. The 13° angle positions the blade ahead of the handle plane. Two bevels of different lengths are ground on the cutting edge to facilitate initial bite into dense foliage. The inner edge carries five notches for gripping and cutting wire up to moderate gauge.

  • Blade material: HSS tool steel
  • Surface finish: Chrome plating
  • Blade length: 250 mm
  • Blade angle: 13° to handle axis
  • Wire-cutting notches: 5 positions
  • Maximum cutting diameter: Ø15 mm

The chrome layer extends blade life in humid conditions. The angled geometry reduces wrist strain during extended trimming sessions. The dual-bevel edge maintains sharpness longer than single-bevel designs.

Handle Construction and Ergonomics

Handles are hollow-cast from aluminum alloy with a 26×15 mm cross-section. Molded plastic grips cover the aluminum to improve comfort and prevent slippage. Shock-absorbing buffers are installed at the pivot point to dampen closing impact. The pivot bolt assembly uses a cross-pin design that prevents loosening or blade misalignment over time.

  • Handle material: Hollow-cast aluminum alloy
  • Grip covering: Molded plastic
  • Handle cross-section: 26×15 mm
  • Total length: 570 mm
  • Weight: 1020 g
  • Shock absorbers: Integrated on both grips

The hollow construction reduces weight without sacrificing rigidity. The plastic grips are contoured to fit both hands for two-handed operation. Lubrication ports allow maintenance without disassembly.

Common Applications

These shears are suited to trimming formal hedges, topiary, and dense shrub borders. The angled blade simplifies horizontal cuts along hedge tops and vertical cuts on side faces. Wire-cutting notches handle tie wires used in espalier training and hedge support. The 570 mm length provides reach for taller hedges without requiring ladders for moderate heights. The tool is used in residential gardens, municipal landscaping, and commercial nursery maintenance.

Maintenance and Replacement Parts

The pivot bolt design allows blade replacement without special tools. Lubrication ports accept grease without disassembly. The replacement blade is available under part number FELCO 250/3. Chrome plating should be wiped clean after use in wet conditions. The shock absorbers are non-serviceable but designed for the tool's service life. Regular cleaning of the wire-cutting notches prevents resin buildup.
