AS 30 WeedHex 160 Compact Petrol Weed Brush

The AS 30 WeedHex 160 is built for contractors who need a compact, high-torque weed brush for tight spaces, old stonework and awkward areas where bigger machines won’t fit. Its 600 rpm brush speed and stronger 160-class engine give it the punch needed for deep joints and stubborn growth without kicking up stones or dust.

It’s light, easy to handle and designed for edges, gutters, cobbles and corners. Suffolk Mowers supports the AS 30 WeedHex 160 with the full range of nylon, steel and braid brushes, so you can set it up for delicate surfaces or harder daily work.

What the AS 30 WeedHex 160 Is Known For

The AS 30 WeedHex 160 is the compact, high-torque option in the WeedHex lineup, built for areas where the AS 50 and AS 60 simply can’t reach. Its 160-class Briggs & Stratton engine and low 600 rpm brush speed give it strong cutting force with controlled debris movement, making it ideal for older pavements, cobbles, kerb lines and tight corners.

The asymmetric wheel adjustment is a major advantage. It lets you tilt the chassis so the brush cuts deeper into gutters, joints and depressions—exactly the sort of spots that larger weed brushes struggle with. The protective cloth keeps debris contained, meaning it can be used safely around parked vehicles and foot traffic.

Who It’s Designed For

• Contractors handling narrow paths, stone edging and awkward corners
• Councils maintaining cobblestones, drainage channels and gutters
• Grounds teams for heritage sites and older paved areas
• Operators who need a light, precise weed brush
• Sites where heavy equipment won’t fit or causes damage

Real Strengths

• High brush torque: The gear reduction and stronger engine give it better bite than the AS 30 WeedHex 140.
• Low brush speed: 600 rpm reduces stone throw and makes it suitable for fragile surfaces.
• Precise edge work: Lateral offset lets the brush clean right up to kerbs and walls.
• Asymmetric wheel setup: Independently adjustable wheel height puts the brush where you need it.
• Light and manoeuvrable: At roughly 38 kg, it’s easy to move between jobs.
• Brush choice: Nylon, steel or braid brushes allow you to match the surface and weed load.

Support, Service and Parts

Suffolk Mowers supplies all three brush types, plus service parts and accessories such as the optional third support wheel. If you need a smaller engine, the AS 30 WeedHex 140 is available, and for low-noise operation, the battery-powered AS 30 E-WeedHex covers similar areas with quieter running.

Where It Sits in the Range

The AS 30 WeedHex 160 is the strongest compact weed brush in the AS 30 line. It delivers more torque than the AS 30 WeedHex 140 while keeping the same agile 35 cm chassis. The AS 30 E-WeedHex sits alongside it for operators who need quiet, zero-emission running on residential paths or noise-restricted areas.

Compatible Accessories

• Nylon plate brush (gentle surfaces)
