In New Zealand’s demanding agricultural and horticultural landscapes, precision, power, and reliability aren’t luxuries—they’re essentials. That’s why Strainrite Fencing Systems has introduced a new generation of professional tools designed to help Kiwis work smarter, faster, and safer.
PRUNING SHEAR – F3020 precision redefined
At the heart of this new lineup is the PRUNING SHEAR – F3020, a professional-grade tool that blends decades of refinement with cutting-edge technology. Designed for horticulturalists, arborists, and vineyard operators, the PRUNING SHEAR – F3020 delivers clean, consistent cuts with minimal effort.
What sets it apart is its intelligent engineering. The shear’s brushless motor provides more power while reducing maintenance, and the ergonomic design makes extended use comfortable—even in tough conditions. Interchangeable heads mean users can tailor the tool to their specific needs, from delicate vineyard pruning to heavy orchard work.
Paired with the lightweight battery and intuitive trigger sensitivity, the PRUNING SHEAR – F3020 isn’t just a pruning tool—it’s an extension of the user’s hand. Its precision doesn’t just save time; it protects plants, improving long-term growth and productivity.
PROCRIMP – F3020 The future of fence construction
Innovation meets brute force in the PROCRIMP – F3020, a powered crimping tool that harnesses the same handset as the PRUNING SHEAR – F3020 to deliver industrial-grade performance for fencing contractors. Designed exclusively for Strainrite Crimp Sleeves, the PROCRIMP – F3020 brings consistency and speed to one of the toughest jobs on the farm: joining wires.
Mounted with a custom crimping head, the PROCRIMP – F3020 transforms the manual process into a fast, repeatable operation. Contractors can install crimps in seconds, reducing fatigue and installation time dramatically. For large-scale projects, the impact is immediate— less downtime, more output, and precise crimps every time.
By using the same proven power platform, the PROCRIMP – F3020 ensures reliability and familiarity. The robust battery system that drives the pruning shear powers the crimper, simplifying logistics and maximising value for professionals who demand versatility from their gear.
TYING TOOL – AT1000 The tying revolution
In vineyards, orchards, and nurseries, plant tying can be one of the most repetitive and time-consuming tasks. The TYING TOOL – AT1000 is designed to turn hours of manual tying into minutes of effortless precision.
With its automatic wire feed and variable tie strength settings, the TYING TOOL – AT1000 adapts to every branch, cane, or trellis situation. It’s lightweight, intuitive, and ergonomically designed for day-long use. For growers chasing efficiency and uniformity, it’s a game changer— delivering thousands of perfect ties on a single charge.
The TYING TOOL – AT1000 also pairs seamlessly with the same battery system, making it part of a cohesive family of professional tools built to handle the rigours of New Zealand agriculture.
Innovation with purpose
These tools share a single philosophy: build equipment that empowers people to do their best work. From pruning to crimping to tying, each product is a fusion of engineering excellence and user-first design.
Strainrite’s partnership brings this technology to New Zealand professionals who demand more than just reliability— they want performance that transforms their workflow. With the PRUNING SHEAR – F3020, PROCRIMP – F3020, and TYING TOOL – AT1000, Strainrite is helping New Zealand’s growers, contractors, and fencers work not just harder, but smarter.
