Log Splitters

A log splitter turns back-breaking hours with a maul into a fast, safe afternoon of firewood. Whether you heat your home, run a firewood business, or clear storm damage on the property, our log splitters deliver the tonnage and cycle speed to power through seasoned rounds and stringy green wood alike. Choose gas, electric, or PTO and the tonnage that matches your logs.

How Much Tonnage Do You Need?

Splitting force is measured in tons. For clean, seasoned hardwood up to about 12 inches, 20 to 25 tons handles most jobs. Big-diameter, knotty, or green wood calls for 25 to 37 tons or more. When in doubt, buy up — extra tonnage splits tough rounds without bogging down.

Gas vs. Electric vs. PTO Log Splitters

• Gas: Maximum power and full portability for the woodlot and off-grid work.
• Electric: Quiet, fume-free, and low-maintenance — ideal for the garage and suburban use.
• PTO / 3-point: Runs off your tractor's hydraulics for high-volume splitting with no separate engine.

Horizontal, Vertical, or Both

Horizontal splitters are easy to load for manageable rounds; vertical operation lets you roll heavy rounds into position without lifting. Many splitters convert between both so you're covered on the big pieces.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size log splitter do I need?

Match tonnage to your wood: 20 to 25 tons for seasoned hardwood up to about a foot across, and 25 to 37-plus tons for large, knotty, or green logs.

Is a gas or electric log splitter better?

Gas offers the most power and goes anywhere; electric is quieter, cleaner, and lower-maintenance for home use near an outlet.

Can a log splitter handle green wood?

Yes, but green and knotty wood needs more force — size up on tonnage and expect slower cycles than dry, seasoned rounds.
