The STIHL BGA 160 Cordless Blower is a powerful professional handheld leaf blower designed for landscapers, grounds maintenance teams and estate management professionals. Combining impressive blowing force with outstanding balance and manoeuvrability, it is ideal for clearing leaves, grass clippings and debris quickly and efficiently throughout the working day.

The STIHL BGA 160 Cordless Blower is a high-performance professional leaf blower designed for demanding commercial grounds maintenance and landscaping applications. Part of the STIHL ALLPRO/AP System, it delivers impressive blowing performance whilst maintaining a compact, lightweight design that is comfortable to use over extended periods.

Positioned between the BGA 86 and BGA 250 in the STIHL blower range, the BGA 160 delivers a maximum blowing force of 21 Newtons, providing excellent power for clearing leaves, grass clippings and general debris from paths, car parks, public spaces and landscaped areas.

Designed with professional users in mind, the BGA 160 offers exceptional handling and balance. The centrally positioned motor and battery ensure excellent weight distribution, whilst the ergonomic handle and angled blower tube minimise strain on the wrist and forearm. This allows both left-handed and right-handed users to work comfortably and maintain precise control, even when operating at maximum power.

A variable speed trigger and three selectable power levels make it easy to match blowing performance to the task at hand. For particularly stubborn debris, the integrated Boost function instantly delivers maximum blowing force at the touch of the trigger. Cruise control can also be activated for extended clearing tasks, helping reduce finger fatigue during prolonged operation.

Quiet operation, low maintenance requirements and weather-resistant construction make the BGA 160 an ideal choice for professional landscapers, contractors and grounds maintenance teams working in noise-sensitive environments where productivity and reliability are essential.

Please note that the BGA 160 is only available as a tool only, the battery and charger are sold separately.
