Log splitters
With a log splitter from Tractor Supply, you can easily cut logs to fight the cold, construct a summertime campfire or exercise your lumberjack skills. Log splitters allow you to leave the tiresome ax behind and split the time you spend cutting wood in half. Finding the right log splitter for your needs is dependent on various factors, with the primary one being tonnage. Tonnage is the amount of pressure required to effectively wedge the log in two. For smaller branches, a 4-ton log splitter should do the job, but for larger stumps and logs, a 20+ ton log splitter may be best.
Factors to consider when deciding tonnage required
Tonnage is determined by more than the size of the wood. Instead, finding the right log splitter for your needs requires the consideration of factors such as diameter, density, and moisture.
- Diameter: Measures the thickness of the log. In most cases, the thicker the wood the more tonnage you need.
- Density: Concerns the composition of the wood. Softer woods are less tightly packed together and therefore require less tonnage to split. On the other hand, hardwoods are tightly bound and require greater pressure.
- Moisture: Relates to the amount of time that has passed since the tree was cut. Wood that was cut from the tree more recently is referred to as green wood and is typically moist and harder to chop. Alternatively, seasoned wood is wood that has had about six months to dry and is easier to split.
Selecting a power source and orientation for your log splitter
Once you have determined the tonnage required, you must consider the power source and orientation that is best for you. Most log splitters rely on three sources of power, including electricity, gas and hydraulic power.
- Electric: Electric log splitters are an eco-friendly option that produce less noise and work well in a backyard setting.
- Gas: Gas-powered log splitters pack a bit more power and are great for tackling large amounts of lumber.
- Hydraulic: Hydraulic log splitters are often found in industrialized settings, as they are known for efficiency and power.
Most log splitters come in three primary variations, including horizontal, vertical and both horizontal/vertical.
- Horizontal: Horizontal log splitters pair well with longer and lighter pieces of lumber. This orientation features a table that holds the wood in place while allowing you to swiftly cut multiple pieces at once.
- Vertical: Vertical log splitters can save you from heavy lifting and allow you to roll the stump or log into place, making them great for tackling large lumber.
- Horizontal/vertical: Horizontal/vertical log splitters are the epitome of versatility. With these log splitters, you get the best of both worlds, and you can swiftly slice branches using the horizontal orientation or chop thick wood with the vertical orientation.
With Tractor Supply's selection of log splitters you can save time chopping lumber and slicing firewood and spend more time with the ones you love roasting marshmallows over the fire pit or warming up and sharing laughs near the fireplace.
