FELCO 2/19 - Replacement Sap Groove (Edging)

FELCO 2/19 Replacement Sap Groove (Edging)

The FELCO 2/19 is the genuine factory replacement edging, specifically designed to maintain the functionality of the sap groove on the anvil blade. This specialized component is part of what makes FELCO pruners the industry standard for precision; it ensures that sticky sap and debris have a place to escape during the cut, preventing the blades from sticking together. Precision-manufactured in Switzerland, the 2/19 edging helps maintain the clean bypass clearance between the cutting blade and the anvil. Replacing a worn or chipped edging restores the tool’s effortless cutting motion and prevents the build-up of residues that can dull the blade and spread plant diseases.

Best For Professional gardeners and orchardists who work with sappy or resinous wood and notice their blades are sticking or becoming fouled with debris.

Ideal For (Uses)

• Tool Refurbishment: Replacing an edging that has been nicked by wire or grit, which can cause the blade to snag or create ragged cuts.

• Improving Cutting Hygiene: Ensuring the sap groove is clear and correctly edged helps prevent the accumulation of pathogens that can be transferred between plants.

• Professional Tool Maintenance: Maintaining the structural precision of the anvil assembly, extending the life of the counter-blade and the main cutting blade.

Pro Tip: During your daily cleaning, use a small brush or the FELCO 980 lubricant to clear any debris from the sap groove. If the 2/19 edging shows signs of a burr, it can sometimes be lightly smoothed with a sharpening stone (like the FELCO 903) to keep the bypass action silky smooth.
