Kinetic Log Splitters

Make Fast Work of Any Wood With Kinetic Log Splitters From Equipment Outfitters

Log splitters can save you time and stress while protecting your body from the back-breaking labor of splitting logs manually. But while the electric log splitter and gas log splitter models we carry have their place, there’s nothing quite as powerful as a kinetic log splitter.

These are a smart upgrade if you’ve ever gotten frustrated waiting on a slow hydraulic splitter or had to deal with messy hoses, leaks, or constant maintenance. They save you time and hassle by delivering fast, consistent power with minimal upkeep.

There’s no waiting game of hydraulic cycle times, so you can split more wood in less time. In other words, you can get the job done faster and move onto the next task, or simply kick back and relax. 

Whether you’re splitting for home heat, a business, or just to keep the woodpile stocked, kinetic technology helps you work smarter, not harder. We’ve created a collection featuring the industry’s best brands and models to help you get started. That includes:

• PowerKing 22-Ton (PK0322K): Fast, reliable splitting with a 3-second cycle and 22 tons of force. Kohler Command Pro engine and no messy hydraulics to maintain. Portable design with tow bar and stand handles tough hardwoods with ease.

Frequently asked questions

How do kinetic log splitters work?

Kinetic splitters store energy in flywheels and release it quickly to generate force. This means faster cycle times and fewer moving parts compared to hydraulics.

What benefits do kinetic log splitters offer?

They’re faster, require less maintenance, and don’t rely on hydraulic fluid. We typically recommend this type of log splitter for high-volume jobs, but anyone who values efficiency can benefit from kinetic log splitters. 

Are kinetic log splitters any good?

Absolutely - but not all machines are made equal. You can rest assured you’re getting the dependable quality you deserve when you shop at Equipment Outfitters.

What is the difference between kinetic and hydraulic log splitters?

Hydraulics use fluid pressure and are slower, but sometimes better for very tough, knotty logs. Kinetics use flywheel energy for faster, cleaner splits. One isn’t inherently better than the other - it all comes down to your budget and what the job calls for. 

How powerful a log splitter do I need?

It depends on your wood. 22-30 tons is usually plenty for typical firewood, while we’d recommend you look at 40-42 tons for larger or tougher logs. Again, we’re happy to offer a personalized recommendation - just get in touch with our team today.
