Secateurs Cellfast C40-415 bypass pruning shears, 415 mm blade length

Secateurs Cellfast C40-415 bypass pruning shears, 415 mm blade length are designed for precise cutting of live branches and stems. The bypass cutting mechanism allows clean, close cuts that minimise crushing and promote healthy regrowth. These shears are suitable for routine garden pruning, shaping shrubs and maintaining orchard trees where accuracy and plant health are priorities.

Advantages

The bypass design ensures a slicing action that produces neat cuts on living wood, reducing damage to stems and promoting faster healing. A long 415 mm blade length provides extended reach for cutting larger stems and accessing deeper parts of shrubs without excessive force. The tool is built to deliver controlled, accurate trimming, supporting consistent shaping and maintenance tasks in both domestic and small-scale professional settings.

Suitable for

• Pruning live branches and stems in gardens
• Shaping shrubs and hedges
• Orchard maintenance and fruit tree care
• Precision trimming of ornamental plants

Key specifications

• Cutting mechanism: bypass (scissor-like slicing)
• Blade length: 415 mm
• Intended use: live wood/living stems
• Primary functions: pruning, trimming, shaping

How to use

Position the blades around the target stem or branch, placing the sharp blade on the side that will remain with the plant and the counter blade on the removed portion. Apply steady pressure to close the handles and complete the cut in a single smooth motion. For branches near the maximum cutter capacity, use gradual, controlled cuts rather than forcing the blades to prevent tool damage. After use, wipe the blades clean and store the shears in a dry place to maintain cutting performance.

Usage recommendations

Use these bypass secateurs primarily on live, green wood and stems. For thicker branches that exceed the cutting capacity, use loppers or a pruning saw to avoid stressing the tool. Regular blade cleaning and occasional sharpening will keep cuts clean and reduce the risk of disease transmission between plants.
