Pruning shears Flo 99301, bypass pruner, 300 mm length, single piece

Flo 99301 pruning shears are a bypass-style garden pruner with a 300 mm overall length designed for precise cutting of branches and stems in pruning, shaping and general garden maintenance. Supplied as a single piece, these pruning shears are intended for hobby and domestic use where clean, accurate cuts are required on shrubs, fruit trees and ornamental plants. The tool combines a carbon steel blade with a PTFE-coated surface for smoother operation and reduced sticking when cutting sap-bearing stems.

Advantages

The bypass cutting mechanism ensures close, clean cuts without crushing live wood, supporting healthy plant recovery. A carbon steel blade provides adequate hardness for repeated use while maintaining a sharp edge for precise trimming. The PTFE coating on the blade reduces friction and resists corrosion, improving cutting comfort and ease of maintenance. With a 300 mm overall length and a 120 mm blade, the shears offer reach and control suitable for a variety of pruning tasks.

Suitable for

• Trimming shrubs and hedges in home gardens
• Pruning small branches and shoots on fruit trees
• Shaping ornamental plants and roses
• General garden maintenance and corrective pruning

Key specifications

• Tool type: bypass pruner
• Overall length: 300 mm
• Blade length: 120 mm
• Blade material: carbon steel (45CS)
• Blade surface: PTFE coating for reduced friction
• Supply: single piece

How to use

Hold the pruner with the bypass blades aligned around the stem to be cut, positioning the cutting edge close to the branch collar for healthier healing. Apply steady pressure to close the blades in a single, smooth motion to produce a clean cut; avoid twisting or sawing motions that can damage the blade and the plant. Use the 120 mm blade for branches and shoots within the recommended diameter for manual pruning shears. After use, wipe the blades clean of sap and debris and store the tool in a dry place to reduce corrosion.

Usage recommendations

For best results, keep the blade sharp and inspect the PTFE coating periodically for wear; replace the tool if the cutting performance degrades. Use the pruner on live wood and small branches appropriate to manual bypass shears and avoid cutting materials beyond their capacity to prevent blade damage. Clean blades after each use and apply a light oil to the pivot and blade surfaces to maintain smooth operation and prolong service life.
