STIHL Chippers and Shredders Guide | STIHL GB NEW

Shredding and chipping are great ways to reduce the volume of garden waste but what is the difference between the two types of machines? The main difference is the type of material they can cope with – a shredder deals with soft leafy material, whereas a chipper can cope with harder, woody material.

At STIHL, we have a range of petrol and electric shredders and chippers with varying power levels to cope with large or small volumes of hard or soft material. Please note that the GH 370 petrol shredder is not available from January 2021.

🔶 STIHL GHE 105 🔶
The GHE 105 is a compact electric chipper/shredder, ideal for chipping branches up to 35mm in diameter and shredding soft material such as leaves and plant trimmings. The cloverleaf design provides two openings where softer shredding material can be inserted down through the wider opening into the shredder blade and the four clover leaves allow harder material to be fed down at an angle onto the chipper blade. Access to change the blades or to clean out the chute is via the two plug screws on the front.

🔶 STIHL GHE 150 🔶
The GHE 150 is an electric garden shredder that comes with a more powerful electric motor and larger twin chipping blades than the GHE 105. It’s perfect for chipping larger volumes of hard material up to 35mm in diameter but is less suited to leafy material. The blades are reversible for increased longevity too.
🔶 STIHL GHE 250 🔶
The GHE 250 is a multi-purpose electric wood chipper/shredder. Compared to the GHE 105 and 150 it has a larger array of both chipping and shredding blades of different shapes and sizes designed to both split, chip and shred. This makes it suitable for processing a wider variety of garden materials including harder branches up to 30mm in diameter and softer materials such as flower cuttings and leaves.

We also offer the ATZ 150 kit to convert the STIHL GHE 250 into a dedicated chipper like the GHE 150.

🔶 STIHL GHE 355 🔶
The GHE 355 is the most powerful electric chipper/shredder in our range. It’s designed for processing large volumes of both hard and soft garden waste and our patented blade reversal system allows you to easily switch between the chipping or shredding functions at the flick of a switch.

The clockwise rotation of the blades will efficiently chip hard branches up to 35mm with the window showing a brown icon to indicate that it’s in chipping mode and a green icon to indicate shredding mode. Turn the machine off and switch the lever to change modes.

🔶 STIHL GH 370 S 🔶
The GH 370 S is the first petrol chipper in the STIHL range. The GH 370 is a powerful chipper for mainly harder woody material up to 45mm in diameter. Thanks to a powerful petrol engine it’s an ideal choice for easily wheeling around a large garden or plot of land where there’s no access to an electrical power supply.

With chipping blades, and a durable aluminium straight feed shoot it’s ideal for reducing large volumes of harder garden waste.

*Please note that the GH 370 shredder is no longer available from January 2021.

🔶 STIHL GH 460 🔶
The largest chipper and shredder in our range is the GH 460. It’s designed for a high working volume of thick branches up to 60mm in diameter, as well as soft material. The large rubber tyres make it easy to move around a large garden or plot of land where there’s no access to an electrical power supply.

The STIHL GH 460 features our twin-chamber system which allows the different types of garden waste to be fed into the correct blades. The softer, leafy material is fed straight down the main chute directly on to the shredder blades, whilst a secondary chute drops down at the back for harder material to be fed straight into the chipper blades below.

All STIHL shredders and chippers come with a 5-year warranty but to find out more information, click the product link below or contact your local STIHL Approved Dealer: https://shop.stihl.co.uk/pages/dealer-locator.
