The Worx NITRO 20V Pruning Shear/Lopper works well for cutting branches, twigs, dead flowers and more up to 1” diameter. These handheld shears are a great tool for smaller applications when a full-sized hedge trimmer is not needed and offers more power than manual shears or loppers. At only 2.38 lbs. with battery attached and an ergonomic soft grip handle, the user can operate these shears for longer periods with little to no fatigue. You can also hold these shears with one hand, versus a manual lopper where you must operate with both hands. As part of the Power Share platform, it uses the same batteries as every other tool, outdoor power and lifestyle product in that family. The compact brushless motor offers greater power, extended runtimes, and longer life versus tools with a brushed motor design. The titanium coating on the blades decreases friction, makes for easier cutting, and protects against rust erosion. The Worx NITRO line of Outdoor Power Equipment has the power to outperform standard battery-operated garden equipment.

High-powered, pro-grade cutting is never a chore with the Worx Nitro 20V Brushless 5” Cordless Pruning Saw. Refined with an ultra-compact design and lightweight body profile, this pruning saw is easy and comfortable to maneuver—even during extended use or when working in tight spaces. The battery-powered cordless capability offers an extended run time that allows for truly on-the-go cutting.

The 5” bar length is ideal for a variety of cutting tasks—including pruning, trimming, delimbing, and bucking. The high-efficiency brushless motor heightens the saw’s performance by providing 50% longer run time, 25% more power, a 10X longer life than standard brushed motors. For added convenience, the pruning saw features automatic chain-tensioning for quick and secure chain adjustments. In addition, onboard chain lubrication sustains cutting efficiency without hassle, as well as extends bar and chain life.

Whatever the task, rely on the guarded handle design to maximize control while increasing safety and security.

For quick trims, the Worx 20V Shrubber/Shear is your grab-n-go hedge trimmer. No need to gas up or plug-in the full-size trimmer when just a few blades need to be cut or a couple of leaves were missed over the weekend. It’s only 2 lbs and has a comfortable to grasp over-mold soft-grip handle, so it also makes a great trimmer for those who have trouble with larger lawn & garden tools. With a no-load speed of 1100/min and two tool-free easy to change blades for grass or shrubs, it has the power and functionality to be your regular hedge trimmer, as well. The dual-action cutting blades catch everything twice, leaving your shrubs even and clean. And with a 5/16” cutting capacity, it slices through thicker twigs than you would expect from such a small machine. You can even purchase a pole attachment (WA0040, sold separately) to get the trees or tall hedges without having to stand on a stool or a ladder. Plus, this Shrubber/Shear comes with a 20V 1.5 Ah Power Share battery, which you can use to operate every tool on the Power Share platform. This trimmer is a perfect complement to any large collection, a wonderful little stand-alone tool if you’re serious about your shrubs, trees, bushes, and hedges, or a great solution to those with hands that tire easily.

The high-efficiency brushless motor runs 50% longer, is 25% more powerful, and delivers a 10X longer life than trimmers with a standard brush motor. With this added power, the 13” dual-exit cutting head makes trimming effortless—even in dense, overgrown areas. Extend trimming line with ease and efficiency using the intuitive push-button command feed system. While this cordless string trimmer remains comfortably lightweight, it is packed with flexible features that enhance control and reduce user fatigue.
