The W splitting tongs are designed for splitting oversized timber into manageable sizes. With fixed and rotating setups available, they have a variety of mounting options from excavators to telehandlers.
Endless rotating rotator
optional: 2 drive motors
for W1350 & W1800
Autospeed allows for a higher splitting capacity.
W600 – W1000
Roller system reduces the friction resistance and thereby minimizes the force exerted (W600 – W1000).
The opening stroke only determines the largest end piece and is not decisive for the maximum diameter that can be split.
Easy supply of the pre-split material to chippers.
