Lopper

When trying to clear out plant overgrowth or pruning dead or scraggly vines and branches after a storm, lopping shears offer an extended arm for hard to reach areas. Ace Hardware carries several types of loppers to help you achieve a manicured-looking yard.

Leveraging two sharp pruning blades, bypass loppers allow their operators to maneuver closer to the trunk or main branches of a plant to make cleaner cuts. Anvil loppers typically function with one sharp blade clipping against a flat, anvil-like surface. And while not known for making the cleanest cuts, they are often more successful at breaking through tough offshoots.

From compound loppers that multiply your cutting power to telescoping loppers that adjust to the length you need, Ace offers lopping shears that help simplify even seemingly difficult pruning jobs. For more information, visit our outdoor cutting tools guide.
