FELCO 2/10 - Replacement Pivot Bushing

FELCO 2/10 Replacement Pivot Bushing

The FELCO 2/10 is the genuine factory replacement bushing (sometimes referred to as a "bush" or "sleeve") designed to house the center bolt in FELCO’s professional pruner range. This small but critical component acts as the bearing surface between the center bolt and the blade, ensuring the pivoting motion is perfectly centered and friction-free. Over time, the internal walls of the bushing can wear down, leading to "blade play" or a wobbly cutting action. Replacing the 2/10 bushing restores the mechanical tight-tolerance fit that is essential for the clean, surgical bypass cut FELCO is known for.

Best For Professional users performing a deep maintenance overhaul who want to eliminate lateral blade movement and restore the smooth, factory-new feel of their tool's pivot point.

Key Features

• Precision-Engineered Tolerance: Manufactured to exact Swiss specifications to provide a snug fit for the center bolt, eliminating the "slop" that causes ragged cuts.

• High-Wear Resistance: Crafted from hardened steel to withstand the constant rotational friction and pressure of thousands of cutting cycles.

• Universal Series Fit: Specifically designed to be compatible with the core FELCO lineup, including the FELCO 2, 4, 6, 11, and 12.

• Reduces Tool Wear: By providing a dedicated bearing surface, it protects the more expensive blade and handle components from direct frictional damage.

• Smooth Pivot Action: Ensures a consistent and effortless opening/closing stroke, which is vital for reducing hand fatigue during long hours in the orchard or garden.

Ideal For (Uses)

• Fixing Blade Wobble: The go-to solution when tightening the pivot nut no longer removes the lateral play between the blades.

• Professional Refurbishment: An essential part of a complete tool rebuild, ensuring all moving parts meet original factory clearances.

• Restoring Cut Quality: Ensuring the blade and anvil maintain constant contact during the bypass, preventing thin stems or bark from slipping between the blades.

• Preventive Maintenance: Replacing the bushing before it fails to prevent ovaling of the holes in the blade or forged aluminum handles.

Pro Tip: When installing the new 2/10 bushing, ensure it is seated flush and apply a small amount of FELCO 980 grease. A properly lubricated bushing will significantly extend the life of your center bolt and pivot assembly.
