Silky Zubat 1 Extension 13ft Pole Pruner

The aluminum alloy extension poles are oval shaped, providing precise control over the direction of the blade (especially important for high cutting) and giving strength and rigidity to the pole, thus reducing bending to the minimum. The base pole has a pole-end shock absorber and comfortable rubberized overgrip which ensures good hold and control. The 13-inch curved blade utilizes proprietary Silky 4-RETSUME (Four Rows of Teeth) Technology. Teeth are set in such a way that there appears to be 4 rows of them. Ideal for the toughest pruning jobs! The precision-ground, razor-sharp teeth with four cutting angles provide fast, clean and extremely smooth cutting action. It is ideal for pruning branches at a higher position without ever climbing a ladder.

To allow effective use of ZUBAT pole saws, two locking systems are incorporated to assure structural rigidity of the extended poles: 1) locking pins/buttons - the primary pole locking mechanism; and 2) friction clamps - the secondary pole locking mechanism. The two systems are designed to work together. This dual locking system allows 100% of the effort at the handle to be effectively transferred to the blade. Spring-loaded locking buttons allow multiple length adjustments and safety friction clamps hold the extensions firmly in place.
