What Is the Best Size Log Splitter

Logs that are larger in diameter need more pressure to split. That’s why a 4-ton log splitter will work well for 6″ branches, but a 24″ tree trunk will require at least the force of a 20-ton splitter.

What is a good size for a log splitter?

People who live in a regular neighbourhood with simple wood branches and small trees should get a splitter that’s about four to seven tons. If you have massive green logs often (which is uncommon in most neighbourhoods), then you can get a 16-ton log splitter. Anything over that is too much, in most cases.

What size log can a 25 ton log splitter split?

This powerful machine handles logs up to 24 inches long, weighing up to 100 pounds. Twenty-five tons of splitting capacity deliver the power you need.
