Log Splitter 12 Ton Vertical Petrol 6.5HP Hydraulic

A 12 ton vertical hydraulic log splitter with a 6.5HP petrol engine, built for breaking down firewood and larger logs with steady splitting force. It is suited to users who need a petrol-powered machine for outdoor wood processing without relying on mains power.

Used for regular firewood work, this machine suits homeowners with wood burners, smallholdings, rural properties and anyone preparing split logs for storage and drying. The vertical format is useful when handling heavier timber, while the petrol engine makes it a practical option for yard work, on-site use and other areas where a socket is not close by. For repeated log splitting jobs, it helps speed up preparation compared with manual splitting methods.

The splitter delivers a maximum splitting force of 12 ton and accepts logs up to 520mm long and 300mm in diameter. Power comes from a 196cc engine rated at 6.5HP, running at 3600rpm, with a 68 x 54mm bore and stroke and an 8.5:1 compression ratio. A 3in cylinder diameter and 29 second travel time give you clear working specs to judge it against the size of timber you normally process. The stated capacity covers a useful range for routine firewood cutting and helps make regular wood preparation more manageable.
