Details

The STIHL BGA 160 is designed for both passionate home gardeners and demanding professionals. It combines powerful performance with quiet, easy operation, making it the perfect tool for clearing leaves, grass, and debris.

Variable Power: The adjustable blowing force lets you easily tailor the power to suit different cleaning tasks. And when you need that extra push, the integrated boost delivers maximum performance, perfect for tougher jobs. For longer sessions, you can lock in your preferred blowing force with a simple button press, which takes the pressure off your index finger and makes the work much more comfortable.

Comfortable to Use: Its compact, lightweight build and curved blower tube reduce wrist strain and make it incredibly easy to manoeuvre. You’ll notice the difference during extended use less fatigue, more control.

Quiet but Tough: The BGA 160 runs quietly, perfect for noise-sensitive areas and it’s splashproof (IPX4 rated), so it’s ready to work even in the rain.

Easy Storage: The blower tube can be removed from the housing without tools and you can store the two parts in your workshop, garage or basement to save space. Alternatively, the BGA 160 can also be easily hung on the wall using the carrying ring at the bottom.
