Description

The TB272V gas leaf blower/vac from Troy-Bilt® offers the power and convenience you desire with a 27cc 2-cycle full-crank engine. It features high volume air flow velocity (450 CFM/ 150 MPH) for efficient clean up.

Overview of the Troy-Bilt TB272V

The Troy-Bilt TB272V in use

The Troy-Bilt TB272V

  • Power: The Troy-Bilt TB272V is a gas-powered leaf blower. It sports a max air speed of 150 MPH and a max air volume rating of 450 cubic feet per minute (CFM).
  • Handling: It’s handheld, so naturally it’s easier to handle and carry than larger leaf blowers, such as backpack models or walk-behinds. However, for a gas-powered handheld blower, the Troy-Bilt TB272V is heavier than most, weighing 12 lbs.
  • Engine: This blower's engine has a displacement specification of 27 cc. Being that this is a 2-stroke engine, it must be fuelled using a mix of gas and oil. The proper fuel ratio set by the manufacturer for the TB272V is 40:1.
  • Speed Settings: To provide more control over their job to the user, the unit has a variable speed control setting. No matter the size of the job, the user can adjust the airflow of the Troy-Bilt TB272V to match it. On top of that, maintaining the selected speed is effortless, as it also features cruise control.
  • Vacuum: As a blower vac, the TB272V handily vacuums unwanted material into a storage bag for easy disposal (14 gallon bag included).
  • Noise: With a decibel rating of 74 dB, the TB272V is neither louder nor quieter than its rivals in the gas-powered handheld category.
  • Fuel Tank: Its tank can hold 14 fl. oz., so it falls squarely in the average in terms of fuel capacity for handheld blowers.
  • SpringAssist™: The Troy-Bilt TB272V benefits from the proprietary SpringAssist™ starting system. This system allows the operator to start the leaf blower with a slow and steady pull on the starter rope, which greatly reduces the pulling effort needed.

The Troy-Bilt TB272V's performance versus other blowers

The following charts are provided to give you an idea how the key specs of the Troy-Bilt TB272V compare with similar leaf blowers.

  • Maxing out at 150 MPH at full power, this blower is on the lower end in terms of air speed for gas-powered handheld blowers. For the fastest air speed in this category, you may want to consider the Craftsman BV2500, which can expell air at a velocity that can reach 250 MPH.
  • Regarding its air volume, the airflow of the Troy-Bilt TB272V can reach 450 CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute), which is on par with other gas-powered handheld blowers. If air volume is important to you, the Craftsman B225, with 650 CFM, could be in your good books.
