A heavy duty petrol strimmer is a grass and shrub cutter that is usually powered by a petrol engine which is integrated into the strimmer. One of the main advantages of a petrol engine powered strimmer is that it can be used anywhere in a garden or landscape as it is not attached to any nearby power outlet. Petrol strimmers are powerful grass and shrub cutters and can be inclined for both vertical and horizontal applications.

Their suitability to a wide range of outdoor situations includes remote corners of a big garden and cutting unwanted growth and brambles in natural landscapes. Forestry and professional landscaping work mostly uses the services of more powerful petrol strimmers, as the task requires the movement of the brush cutter extensively to cover large areas. Most professionals use a powerful petrol strimmer as they are more suitable for their work, being more robust and producing better results. A strimmer is designed to work in any situations and that include gardens, forestry and agricultural sites, hedgerows, paddocks and verges.

A petrol strimmer can use different cutting blades such as metal blades, nylon line, poly cut and other similar cutting tools capable of clearing grass, brush, weeds and bramble. The nylon line is the most commonly deployed strimmer blade for grass, weeds and plants of softer variety. Poly cut is used in light and medium machines and are usually equipped with three plastic blades to cut through tougher grass than the nylon type. The metal blades are meant for tougher jobs that need heavy duty strimmer with straight shafts.

If you need power and robustness, a petrol strimmer uses a more powerful engine and is ideal for tougher work. This would also mean fitting heavier cutting heads onto the machine. The strimmers are made with two types of shafts namely bent shafts and straight shafts. The bent shaft model is used for doing light work and ideally suited for garden work. The straight shaft machines are versatile as they are designed for more powerful cutting heads and engines. They can also utilise different cutting attachments with some minor adjustment. Using a petrol strimmer is ideal if you need to cut through large areas of tough grass, weeds, shrubs, scrub and brambles. Clearing agricultural sites or maintaining the hard to reach areas of your garden or grounds.
