Non-Hydraulic Electric Log Splitter WOODLOT EQUIPMENT Wood Splitters 5-5-29 New from Flowtron is the first non-hydraulic electric log splitter.
A key feature of the Flowtron, which operates on standard 110V electricity, is its reverse-action, 2-way operation. A log up to 26 in. long can be split in one direction, then the switch can be reversed and another log up to 26 in. long split on the second wedge without waiting for the ram to return. The manufacturer estimates you can split a cord of wood in just 90 min.
The steel worm gear drive delivers 14,000 lbs. of splitting thrust while eliminating hydraulic problems and maintenance.
At 132 lbs., 57 in. long and 21 1/2 in. wide, the Flowtron is portable enough to lift into a car trunk for transport. Semi-pneumatic wheels provide extra on-site maneuverability.
The Flowtron sells for $398 complete. It's available through Ace Hardware dealers, or direct from the Flowtron Co.
