Steel quality
Together with various steel manufacturers, ARS has developed the most suitable
steel for its products. The steel must meet the high standard of ARS, which is
above the standard of JIS (Japan Industrial Standard).
Hard chrome plated
This method offers high hardness, rust resistance, sharp looks and superior durability. The smooth surface also prevents juices from sticking to the blades, ensuring maximum performance from your ARS tool.
Design and Ergonomics
Ergonomics, economy and durability are important features of ARS products,
which are developed by experienced, trained professionals.
Impulse hardened
The innovative “Impulse Hardening” method involves heating and cooling the
steel, within a few thousands of a second, using the impact of a high-frequency
current. This allows ARS to achieve hardness from 900HV to 950HV on the Vicker
scale while maintaining high elasticity. Impulse-hardened blades therefore last
approximately three times longer under normal conditions.
Unique tooth setting
ARS blades are thinner at the back of the blade and thicker at the saw teeth, ensuring minimal drag. The saw blades are sharpened by fully automated grinders to
always achieve the same, perfect result.

Ergonomics are a matter of course with the ARS pruning shears.

Pruning saws
A wide variety of pruning saws of very high quality. A high class
product, equipped with the innovative tooth settings and frictionreducing notches. ARS is the inventor of the ‘’PULL SAW’’ method
or the pull saw. Telescopic poles and pole saws
If you cannot work high enough with the long arm shears, you
can certainly do that with the telescopic poles and pole saws, as
their length varies from 1.8 to 5.5 meters. By using only highquality steel, lightweight aluminum and the unique teeth, sawing at height is also easier.
Long reach pruners
With the ARS long reach pruners you will only fi nd quality, for
pruning work at great heights. The unique long arm shears are
available in various lengths and designs.

The taper and curvature ground ARS blades are precisely formed and have a razor-sharp

The unique patented blades leave a remarkably clean cut. Due to the very sharp teeth

Clean tools, healthy crop
To optimize the lifespan of your product, it is important to
clean each tool after use and store it in a dry place. For
cleaning pruning tools, we recommend Blade Cleaner
GO-1 and GO-5. When pruning trees, shrubs and plants
releases juices that usually have a stubborn sticky layer
on the blades of saws and scissors neglect.
The Blade Cleaner GO-1 and GO-5 is a powerful cleaning
agent to effectively remove such deposits from your
pruning tools. Keeping your products clean makes your
work easier and that leaves a clean and beautiful wound
on the pruned work.
Clean pruning tools reduce the risk of cross contamination.
