Teflon coating has brought great changes to pruning shear blades with its unique extremely low friction coefficient. It is directly related to the smoothness of cutting and the comfort of operation. When the surface of the blade is covered with Teflon, its surface becomes extremely smooth, as if coated with an invisible lubricant, allowing the blade to slide easily when it contacts the branch. This almost unimpeded sliding reduces the resistance during the cutting process, allowing users to complete pruning tasks more easily, even when facing branches with coarse fibers and uneven surfaces.
In addition to low friction, Teflon coating has high self-lubricating properties. During continuous cutting operations, the coating can automatically release tiny lubricating molecules, which form a thin lubricating film between the blade and the branch, further reducing the heat and wear generated by friction. This dynamic lubrication mechanism not only protects the blade from excessive wear, but also ensures a smooth and clean cutting surface, reducing the phenomenon of unclean cutting or tearing caused by blunt blades. In addition, the reduced friction heat also helps maintain the stability of the blade and prevents deformation or performance degradation caused by overheating. Therefore, the Teflon coating not only improves the cutting smoothness of the pruning shears blade, but also extends the service life of the blade from multiple dimensions. In long-term gardening work, lower maintenance costs, less frequent replacement and higher work efficiency. For professional gardeners or individuals who love gardening, pruning shears blades with Teflon coating are undoubtedly a powerful assistant to improve work efficiency and enjoy the fun of gardening. At the same time, its excellent lubrication performance also reduces the noise and vibration generated during the cutting process, providing users with a more comfortable and quiet working environment.
Teflon coating has excellent corrosion resistance and can resist the erosion of various chemicals. During the pruning process, the blade will inevitably come into contact with various sap, resin and possible pesticide residues from the tree. These substances are often corrosive and can gradually erode the surface of the blade, affecting its cutting performance and durability. However, with its stable chemical properties, the Teflon coating forms an effective barrier to isolate these corrosive substances and ensure the long-term use of the blade without damage.
Secondly, the weather resistance of Teflon coating is also an advantage that cannot be ignored. In outdoor work, the blade will also face the test of various harsh weather conditions, such as strong sunlight, high temperature, low temperature, humidity changes, and rain erosion. These environmental factors may damage the blade and affect its use effect. However, with its excellent weather resistance, Teflon coating can maintain stable performance under various extreme weather conditions without being affected. Whether it is hot summer or cold winter, Teflon coating can provide reliable protection for the blade and ensure the stability of its cutting performance.
During the cutting process, the blade is easily contaminated with sticky substances such as sap and resin from branches. These substances not only affect the cutting effect of the blade, but also increase the difficulty and frequency of cleaning. However, Teflon coating, with its unique non-stickiness, makes it difficult for the blade to be contaminated with these sticky substances during the cutting process. Even if there is a small amount of residue, it can be easily removed, which greatly saves cleaning time and energy and improves work efficiency.
These excellent properties of Teflon coating work together to help extend the service life of large-caliber pruning shears. Low friction and lubricity reduce blade wear, while corrosion and weather resistance protect the blade from environmental factors. As a result, blades with Teflon coatings maintain their cutting performance longer, giving users a longer-lasting experience.
