Overview:
Bypass Garden Pruning Secateurs (GT101) are designed for clean, precise pruning with a scissor-style bypass action that’s kinder to living stems. Ideal for trimming delicate growth, flowers and young shoots, the bypass blades slice past each other to reduce bruising and help promote healthier regrowth. Built with cast aluminium handles and soft foam grips, they’re comfortable to use for longer periods and easier on the hands. A spring-open design speeds up repeated cutting, while the easy-reach thumb lock keeps the secateurs safely closed when not in use perfect for general garden maintenance and tidy pruning in tight spots.

Bypass Pruning Secateurs – Key FAQs
What are bypass secateurs best used for?
Bypass secateurs are ideal for live, green growth because the blades pass each other like scissors, helping create a clean cut that’s less likely to bruise stems.
Can I use these on thick branches?
For thicker branches, use loppers or a pruning saw to prevent damaging the blades.
What does PTFE coating do on pruning blades?
PTFE coating helps reduce friction for smoother cutting and can make sap and dirt easier to wipe off, helping the blades stay cleaner during use.
Do the foam grips improve comfort?
Yes, the soft foam grips provide a more comfortable hold and help reduce hand strain during prolonged pruning sessions.
What is the spring-open design for?
The spring automatically reopens the handles after each cut, making repetitive pruning quicker and less tiring.
