Log splitters
With a range of 20 models of RABAUD wood splitters, you will find the log splitter model that suits your needs. Depending on your requirements, and especially the number of cubic meters of wood you want to split each year, you can choose between a hydraulic, electric, or thermal wood splitter... the range goes from 7 to 80 tons.
At RABAUD, we take pride in this historic range of log splitters that has made our brand famous for its robustness and longevity. The splitters are designed at our production site in Sainte-Cécile, Vendée, France, since 1980.
To choose a wood splitter, the splitting power is the most important criterion; it is the force exerted by the hydraulic cylinder, expressed in tons. However, it is essential to note that a wood splitter does not cut the wood; it splits it. The cylinder exerts pressure against the wedge to split the log along its entire length. It is important to match the model of your log splitter to the type of wood. Indeed, the harder and more knotty the wood, the greater the pushing force needs to be.
Log splitters are considered dangerous tools, so the machines comply with numerous safety rules: dual control, wedge length, prohibition of a star-shaped wedge, table height, log grip, log lifter...
For larger log splitters, it is possible to add a hydraulic chain winch to provide comfort in the work.
We are at your disposal to answer all your questions and help you find the wood splitter that meets your needs.
