Extend Your Reach with the GTA 26
The STIHL GTA 26 Extension Shaft is the perfect accessory for owners of the popular cordless garden pruner. It allows you to quickly and easily convert your handheld tool into a long-reach pole pruner, making it ideal for managing fruit trees and trimming high branches around your garden without the need for a ladder. With a fixed length of 1.5 metres, it offers significant extra reach for demanding domestic tasks.
Lightweight and Ergonomic Design
Constructed from high-quality, lightweight aluminium, the shaft weighs just 1.4 kg on its own. When combined with the GTA 26 pruner, the total weight is a mere 2.7 kg, ensuring the tool remains balanced and easy to handle. User comfort is further enhanced by a soft grip handle, while a slight bend in the shaft is cleverly designed to reduce tipping during use, providing greater stability and precision. A practical and robust branch hook is also integrated, allowing you to pull down and remove small, loose branches from the canopy safely and easily.

Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this extension shaft compatible with any other STIHL tools?
No, this extension shaft is designed exclusively for use with the STIHL GTA 26 cordless garden pruner. It is not compatible with other STIHL multi-tools or cordless products.
How much extra reach does the shaft provide?
The shaft itself has a fixed length of 1.5 metres (approximately 4.9 feet). The total working reach will depend on the height of the operator, but the shaft provides a significant extension for pruning branches that would otherwise be out of reach.
Is it difficult to attach the GTA 26 to the extension shaft?
No, the process is straightforward. The STIHL GTA 26 pruner slots securely into the housing on the end of the shaft, converting it into a unified pole pruner quickly and without the need for special tools.
