STIHL HSA 50: Versatile 50cm Cordless Hedge Trimmer Set (AK 10 & AL 101 Included)

The STIHL HSA 50 is a lightweight yet powerful cordless hedge trimmer designed for the efficient maintenance of medium-sized hedges and garden borders. Delivering a perfect balance of professional STIHL heritage and homeowner-friendly ergonomics, this machine eliminates the noise and fumes of petrol without sacrificing cutting force. This complete set comes ready to work, including the high-performance AK 10 battery and AL 101 charger.

Advanced Blade Technology

  • Hardened Steel Precision: The 50cm (20") double-sided blades are laser-cut and diamond-ground, featuring a specialized teardrop geometry that holds branches in place for a cleaner, faster cut.
  • High-Speed Efficiency: With a stroke rate of 3,600 rpm, the HSA 50 glides through foliage, handling branches up to 18mm (approx. 3/4") in diameter with ease.
  • Non-Stick Coating: The blades are finished with a protective coating to reduce sap build-up and friction, ensuring the motor runs efficiently even during heavy use in resinous hedges.

Ergonomics and Effortless Handling

  • Ultra-Lightweight Design: Weighing only 2.9kg (excluding battery), this trimmer is engineered to reduce shoulder and back strain, making it ideal for extended vertical or overhead trimming.
  • Neutral Balance: The battery is positioned in the center of the tool, providing a balanced pivot point that makes the machine feel agile and easy to maneuver.
  • Loop Handle Control: The ergonomic loop handle ensures a comfortable and secure grip in any orientation, allowing for smooth transitions between horizontal and vertical cutting.

The STIHL AK System Advantage

  • Interchangeable Power: The included AK 10 battery is part of the versatile STIHL AK System, meaning it can also power your STIHL leaf blower, chainsaw, or lawnmower.
  • Whisper-Quiet Operation: The electric motor is so quiet it can be used in noise-sensitive residential areas without the need for ear protection.
  • Safety First: Features a screw-on tip protector to prevent blade damage when working near walls or the ground, alongside a two-handed start sequence for maximum operator safety.

This product is backed by STIHL’s comprehensive 2-year domestic warranty.

Working time with recommended AK 10 battery is up to 50 minutes.

Main features

Swivelling multi-function handleSwivelling multi-function handle

Swivelling multi-function handle

The handle rotates by 90° to the left and right, ensuring the best cutting position at all times.

Teardrop-shaped shrub cutterTeardrop-shaped shrub cutter

Teardrop-shaped shrub cutter

The double-sided shrub cutter with proven STIHL teardrop-shaped teeth delivers top cutting performance. The teardrop shape means that branches are held securely at the blade for perfect cutting results. The shrub cutter’s bar length of 200 mm is ideal for precisely shaping small-leaved ornamental trees and hedges.

Anti-vibration systemAnti-vibration system

Anti-vibration system

Intense vibration at the handles of power tools can lead to long-term effects on blood vessels in the hands and arms. STIHL has therefore developed an effective anti-vibration system whereby the oscillations from the machine's engine are dampened which significantly reduces vibrations at the handles.

STIHL Electric Motor (EC)STIHL Electric Motor (EC)

STIHL Electric Motor (EC)

The STIHL electric motor (EC) is extremely energy efficient, lightweight and compact. It runs quietly, generates very low vibrations and does not require servicing.

Hanging loopHanging loop

Hanging loop

Hang your tool securely on a wall to save space using the loop in the handle housing.

Neutral battery positionNeutral battery position

Neutral battery position

The battery can be inserted into the tool in 2 stages. In the first neutral position, the battery is secured in the tool but does not connect with the contacts, allowing for safe transport. In the second operating position, the battery is completely inserted allowing for full operation of the tool.

Two handed designTwo handed design

Two handed design

The tool is easily started by activating both switches on the loop handle and the rear handle at the same time. The cutting speed is continuously variable using the rear control, for a fine and precise cut. The two handed design is suitable for both left and right-handed users.

Functional designFunctional design

Functional design

The engine housing has smooth surfaces and round contours. This prevents the tool from getting caught on branches. The hedge trimmers are easy to clean.

Tip protectionTip protection

Tip protection

Come with tip protection as standard, which prevents damage to both the blade and the gear, but also to things that lie near the hedgerow (e.g. natural stone wall). It also makes it easier to cut ground cover plants. (similar to illustration)
