Stihl HS87T-40 Description
The STIHL HS 87 T-40 Professional Hedge Trimmer delivers exceptional performance with its extended 40-inch single-sided precision blade, designed specifically for professional landscapers managing larger hedge installations. This premium model provides significantly greater reach and cutting coverage than the 30-inch version, making it the optimal choice for taller and wider hedges commonly found in commercial properties throughout DFW and surrounding areas.
The extended 40-inch blade length offers distinct advantages for professional applications. While the 30-inch model excels at detailed work on smaller hedges, the HS 87 T-40 enables professionals to cover substantially more area per pass, significantly reducing the time required to maintain extensive hedge installations. This translates directly into improved productivity and profitability for commercial landscaping operations.
Despite its longer blade, this trimmer maintains excellent balance and maneuverability, operating at 5,000 strokes per minute for efficient trimming of larger areas with superior precision compared to previous models. The single-sided blade configuration is particularly effective for hedges between waist and chest height, providing a clean, professional finish with each pass.
The HS 87 T-40 incorporates STIHL’s advanced fuel-efficient engine technology, consuming 20% less fuel than previous models while delivering consistent 0.94 bhp performance. This reduced fuel consumption significantly lowers operational costs for landscape professionals while maintaining the power necessary for demanding commercial applications.
Professional comfort features include STIHL’s proven anti-vibration system and lightweight design (11.5 pounds), reducing operator fatigue during extended trimming sessions. Additional professional-grade features include a protective tip guard for safe operation near walls and ground surfaces, a multi-function control handle enabling one-handed operation, and durable high-tech polymer housing designed to withstand demanding commercial use conditions.
Note: This product is not available for purchase or delivery in California.
