SKU:WA1142
The Wahl Professional Vapor Switch Cordless Clipper is engineered for barbers who demand precision, versatility, and consistent cutting performance. Equipped with the innovative HyperShift™ 2-Speed Motor, this professional clipper allows you to switch between precision fading and high-powered bulk removal while automatically adapting to every hair texture for smooth, effortless cutting.
At the heart of the clipper is the new Drift™ F32 Blade, designed with integrated oil grooves that reduce friction and heat for cooler operation and longer blade life. Combined with Black PVD Chrome and DLC coatings, the blade stays sharper longer while delivering exceptionally smooth cutting performance.
The Vapor Switch also introduces Wahl's patented Rapid Switch Metal Taper Lever, allowing you to instantly change between five-click taper positions or free-flow no-click adjustment—without tools. A redesigned ergonomic housing with textured grips, USB-C charging, travel lock, and extended cordless runtime make this clipper an outstanding choice for professional barbers and stylists.
