Dewalt DCHT826B 20V MAX XR 24″ Brushless Cordless Hedge Trimmer – Tool Only

Built for fast, clean results across long hedgerows and larger properties, the DEWALT DCHT826B pairs a high-efficiency brushless motor with a 24 in. dual-action blade to deliver a 14.3% faster cutting speed† and up to 60 minutes of runtime (battery and charger sold separately). A 1 in. cut capacity handles thicker shrub branches and seasonal overgrowth, while the hardened steel blades maintain sharpness for consistent performance. The included hedge sweep pushes clippings off the cut path to keep sightlines clear, and a tip guard helps protect the blade near walls, stone, and fencing. At 10.3% lighter†† (tool only), the trimmer is easier to maneuver during extended sessions, with a rear hand guard for added confidence when working close to dense foliage. As part of the 20V MAX XR line, it fits existing DEWALT 20V batteries to streamline charging and reduce downtime on mixed tool fleets.
