Norwich, Ontario’s Split-Fire Sales has introduced a new log splitter that runs on electricity.
The model 3215HT runs on a 120V/15A high torque electric motor from North American manufacturer Leeson Electric and can plug into traditional household outlets.
Its design is similar to the 3255 bi-directional log splitter which Split-Fire first introduced 30 years ago. A square, tube frame instead of an I-beam makes the splitter stronger and less susceptible to bowing.
It’s an 18-ton log splitter capable of completing a full stroke (forwards and backwards) in only 16 seconds.
It features 2-way splitting, meaning the wood is split from both ends and is rated for logs anywhere between 30 and 36 inches in diameter and 24 inches in length.
“The knife is moving back and forth on the splitter bed splitting your wood,” said Chris Skalkos, marketing director for Split-Fire. “Unlike traditional single stroke machines. A much more productive design.”
Split-Fire’s unique log stop design helps keep the user safe by preventing any “fly-outs” when splitting angled logs.
