The Gardena combisystem Telescopic Handle is made of aluminium and is especially light and stable – important if the handle has to be held up. For more stability and no twisting during adjusting the handle is oval shaped. A damper prevents unintentional retraction of the telescopic handle (no injuries). The fastening screw with soft plastic components for securing the combisystem tool is attached in such a manner that it cannot be lost. The warranty period is 25 years.
