Finding the Right Wahl Clipper and Trimmer Parts: A Guide

Wahl has long been known as a source of trimmers and clippers for people and animals. While these clippers and trimmers are known to be reliable, you may find yourself in need of a replacement part on occasion. Luckily, there are plenty of affordable Wahl clipper replacement parts available on eBay.

It happens sometimes--you may be in a rush and eager to purchase the first replacement clipper blade you see. However, all Wahl clipper parts are not interchangeable. An easy way to begin ensuring a part is compatible is by looking closely at the photo or reading the description. Wahl blades usually are mounted to a clipper with two or three screws. These are usually advertised as two-hole or three-hole blades.

If you're in doubt about whether a given part is compatible with your clipper or trimmer, please be sure to check manufacturer guidelines to ensure you make the right purchase.

eBay opens up a wealth of options for finding Wahl detailer parts, even those for discontinued trimmers and clippers. However, it is important to make sure the parts you buy are in decent condition and will last. Here are a few things to look for:

• Look for obvious signs of wear. This goes without saying, but worn parts are more likely to give out. This might be a nuisance, but some parts can cause injury when damaged. For example, a frayed power cord can cause electric shock
• Investigate battery life. Some of the commonly available Wahl clipper parts include replacement batteries. In order to make sure you've found a good value, it's wise to make sure that the battery has a decently long life and won't die soon after being charged.
• Make sure they are actually Wahl parts. In many cases, parts are sold in new, branded packaging, so you'll know they're designed by Wahl. However, you may occasionally see a part made by another company. If you go this route, make sure it's compatible with your clipper.

As you may have seen while shopping for new or used Wahl trimmer parts, some parts are available in multi-packs. If the part you are replacing is something that will need to be regularly replaced (like a blade), buying a few at a time is a trick that may save you money. However, if it's something like a power cord, which you likely won't need to replace, it might be a better idea to just buy one.
