Stihl BG 86 Petrol Blower

The Stihl BG 86 is a powerful, professional-quality handheld petrol blower designed to tackle leaves, grass clippings, and debris with ease. Built with reliability and performance in mind, it’s a favourite among homeowners, landscapers, and groundskeepers who want robust German engineering in a compact machine.

Equipped with a 27.2cc 2-Mix engine, the BG 86 delivers strong blowing power while keeping fuel consumption and emissions low. The anti-vibration system and ergonomic handle ensure comfortable operation, even during extended use. A throttle lock with stop switch makes starting and stopping simple, while the flat and round nozzles (supplied as standard) give you flexibility for both wide-area clearing and concentrated airflow.

For tougher tasks in noise-sensitive areas, the BG 86 is also compatible with a vacuum attachment kit (sold separately), converting it into a powerful garden vacuum and shredder.

✅ Key Features:

  • 27.2cc Stihl 2-Mix engine – efficient, powerful, low emissions

  • Lightweight and well-balanced at only 4.4 kg

  • Anti-vibration system for operator comfort

  • Supplied with round and flat nozzles

  • Optional vacuum kit available for collection and shredding

    Q: Is the Stihl BG 86 suitable for professional use?

  3. Adam Ski (verified owner) –

    Got it mail order and it swiftly arrived. Works great and it’s a good deal. Stihl is a top brand with spare parts available.

  4. Brian (verified owner) –

    Delivered quickly and well packaged, good price for a great blower, not too heavy but powerful enough to blow even wet leaves and debris, a little different to my last blower control wise but soon got used to choke and starting, I bought the curved flat nozzle at the same time and I find this much better as it make the chute slightly shorter and less likely to catch the ground when you are trying to round up leave into a pile to pick up, I think this is quicker and easier method than vacuuming the leaves into a very heavy bag that then needs emptying.

  5. James Wallis (verified owner) –

    This Company offered the most competitive price and free delivery when checked on line.The blower was ordered at about 4.30pm and delivered by 9.30am the next day. The blower had been tested before delivery and started on first pull on arrival. It is easy to start and restart at any time, and the prompt service offered by Radmore and Tucker is second to none. I would recommend this Company and its service to anyone.

  6. Tony Kelly (verified owner) –

  11. P J Wood (verified owner) –

    My purchase was based on having made use of an older model Stihl leaf blower owned by a professional landscape gardener. The BG 86-C is highly efficient and tackles the labour intensive job of leaf gathering with ease. The service provided by Radmore & Tucker was faultless and receipt achieved well within the proposed delivery schedule. The BG 86-C is sturdy, efficient and provided with a booklet giving clear and easily understandable assembly and operating instructions. Highly recommended.

  33. Chris Solman (verified owner) –

    Old model died after 27 years, first class blower with excellent power even when dealing with wet leaves in a large area.
    Best price available online, I called my usual supplier and they purchase from Radnor and Tucker so that was all the endorsement I needed.

    I would also like to recommend and thank John and all the team at R&T. Called by phone at 0900 and had the item delivered and in use by 1000 – quite exceptional service and customer support. In over 40 years of dealing with R&T they have always provided exceptional service – and continue to do so. Highly recommended.

  37. Mark Saxon (verified owner) –

    Great service as always. Fast delivery supported with good communication throughout. The blower is a perfect replacement for my BG56-CE that was used almost daily for 3 years so hoping for similar performance with the BG86. Thank you Radmore and Tucker!

  38. Haydn (verified owner) –

    great leaf blower great shop.quick delivery 5 stars. Go above and beyond

  39. Simon Beech –

    Delivery of this item was quicker than I expected, which was pleasing. The unit performs amazingly well and the suspension system significantly reduces vibration allowing me to use the unit for long periods without discomfort. That was one of the major benefits of this model and it performed as advertised. The particular model delivered does not have the ergo-start feature as demonstrated on some videos of the BG86, but I didn’t find that to be a problem. The volume of blown air is awesome – even when idling you have to be careful not to point the nozzle at loose leaves! At full power, even large sticks and heavy, soggy clumps of debris are shifted. I am very pleased with my purchase.

  40. Rob Nixon –

    Purchased on a Saturday and I received on a Sunday
    Exeter to Sussex fantastic service and an excellent leaf blower from Stihl

  41. Jason Dellar (verified owner) –

    I purchased the Stihl BG 86 petrol blower about two weeks ago and used it today for the first time after the recent storm Bert, My garden and driveway were covered in leafs the blower was amazing fantastic piece of kit which made short work of the clearing up. Light weight and easy to use.
    Also the service provided by Radmore & Tucker was superb can’t praise them enough. 5 star service.

  42. Steven Jackson (verified owner) –

    I was sceptical about leaf blowers ie I thought they were unlikely to be very effective. Oh how wrong I was. Faced with a lengthy farm track through dense woodland I had to take a chance. The Stihl BG86 I purchased from Radmore and Tucker has proved to be very effective – whether dry or wet leaves – it moves the lot. Very impressed and pleased.

  43. James Codling (verified owner) –

    This is my second BG86, my previous one lasted about 10 years, so it was a no brainer to get another.
    And Radmore and Tucker were very fast at dispatching and also the lowest price online.

  44. Richard Skingley (verified owner) –

    Fantastic Blower – Great Value and Performance
    I’m really impressed with the Stihl BG 86 Petrol Blower. It was very competitively priced compared to other suppliers, and the quality is exactly what you’d expect from Stihl—powerful, reliable, and easy to start. It makes clearing leaves and debris quick and effortless. Delivery was super fast too, which was a nice bonus. Overall, I couldn’t be happier with the product or the service. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a top-notch petrol blower!

    This purchase was my first from Radmore and Tucker Limited. I will definitely use them again.
