Description:

As the first pole pruner in the STIHL® AK Homeowner System, the HTA 50 delivers extended reach and dependable performance to tackle hard-to-reach branches with confidence. Designed for comfort and efficiency, this battery-powered pole pruner features a lightweight, extended-reach build with an overall length of over 9 feet—or nearly 11 feet when paired with the optional 20-inch shaft extension.

Despite its reach, the HTA 50 is easy to store and transport thanks to its split-shaft design. A 10-inch guide bar equipped with ¼-inch STIHL® PICCO™ saw chain ensures smooth, clean cuts—ideal for a wide range of tree-care applications.

With quiet operation suitable for noise-sensitive areas and no need for hearing protection, the HTA 50 is a convenient choice for homeowners. Powered by the AK 20 battery and AL 101 charger, it integrates seamlessly with the full STIHL® AK System of battery-powered tools.
