What Is the Maximum Reach of Professional High Branch Shears
2025-08-26
When it comes to maintaining tall trees, one question I hear constantly from both homeowners and professional landscapers is: “What’s the maximum reach of professional High Branch Shears?” It’s a crucial question because having the right reach can mean the difference between a well-pruned tree and one that’s dangerously uneven. Through years of experience, I’ve learned that not all shears are created equal—especially when you’re working with mature trees.
Most standard High Branch Shears offer a reach between 2 to 3 meters, but professional-grade tools like those from Fubang are designed to go further. Their extendable poles can reach up to 4.2 meters when fully extended, allowing you to safely trim branches that are otherwise out of reach. This isn’t just about convenience—it’s about working safely without needing a ladder.
But reach isn’t the only factor. The material, cutting mechanism, and overall design play huge roles in performance. Fubang uses lightweight carbon fiber and aluminum composites, which means you get maximum extension without unnecessary weight. You stay in control, reduce arm fatigue, and make precise cuts even at full stretch.
Let’s take a closer look at how Fubang compares to other professional models:
| Feature | Fubang Pro Series | Typical Professional High Branch Shears |
|---|---|---|
| Max Reach | 4.2 meters | 3.5 meters |
| Extended Weight | 2.1 kg | 2.8–3.5 kg |
| Cutting Capacity | 45 mm | 30–35 mm |
| Pole Sections | 3 | 2 |
| Locking Mechanism | Triple Safety Lock | Single Lock |
FAQ: High Branch Shears
What is the ideal reach for home gardeners
For most users, a High Branch Shears with a reach of 3–3.5 meters is sufficient. It allows access to branches of mid-height trees while keeping the tool lightweight and easy to handle.
Can I use high branch shears on thick hardwood branches
Yes, but it depends on the cutting capacity. Fubang shears can cleanly cut branches up to 45mm thick, thanks to their geared blade system and leverage-enhanced design.
How do I maintain the cutting blades over time
Keep blades clean and lightly oiled after use. Most High Branch Shears, including Fubang models, feature detachable blades that can be sharpened or replaced individually, extending the life of the tool.
Whether you’re a landscaping professional or a dedicated homeowner, having the right tool can transform your tree care routine. With Fubang’s extended-reach High Branch Shears, you gain the ability to work smarter, not harder.
