Secateurs

Secateurs, sometimes known as pruners, are used for plant and tree pruning. Specifically, they are used to cut stems and branches up to roughly half an inch thick.

We sell a variety of secateurs, including bypass (for live appendages) and anvil (for dead and tough appendages) designs. For branches thicker than half an inch, we’d recommend switching to a pair of loppers.

If you’d like to find out more about secateurs and loppers, including how to use each and when’s best to choose a bypass or anvil design, read our article ‘What is the difference between loppers and secateurs?’.
