Our range of PTO log splitters is often used by farmers, estates and tractor owners. Easily attached to any compact tractor through the PTO, you get consistent hydraulic force, wherever you can get your tractor. For those looking for a splitter that can handle larger volumes, hardwood or just need something they can rely on for regular use, the PTO log splitters from Oxdale are perfect.
Some of the most popular log splitters on the market, petrol-powered splitters are commonly used when mobile work and limited power supply are the two main concerns. Useful for forestry, woodland and remote firewood processing, their independent engine power does not require a tractor or mains supply.
For those looking to bring reliable log splitting to their smallholding or workshop, our range of electric log splitters is ideal. Designed to be just as powerful while minimising noise, our electric log splitters are perfect for domestic use. Simply plug them into your power outlet and split away. All while producing lower emissions compared to any other splitter option.
For those with a tractor at their disposal, but maybe not the ability to connect to the PTO, a tractor log splitter could be the perfect solution. They plug directly into your tractor’s rear hydraulic remotes, which are powered entirely by the tractor’s existing hydraulic fluid and pump system. Many opt for this log splitting machine due to the controlled splitting force and consistent performance.
Our range of log splitters has a wide range of uses, with many industries turning to our machines to get the reliable log splitting performance they’re after.
Those working on a farm or in the agricultural industry are likely to need a splitter that can regularly process timber. Many use our log splitters to help clear fallen trees as well as manage woodland margins. Commonly paired with a compact tractor, our splitters make a formidable partner on the farm, thanks to the robust design and long service life.
Forestry and woodland contractors need a splitter that is mobile and reliable. Our petrol log splitters are perfect for contractors who need splitting capabilities in off-grid locations. They are higher-output machines, making them perfect for professional use, especially those using them for firewood preparation.
Smallholdings often require a log splitter for domestic log splitting, to create firewood, for example. Those looking to split for log burners, workshops or sheds, we recommend our compact petrol log splitters or electric log splitters. Giving you all the power you could need whilst also being practical, safe and easy to use. Even the lower-tonnage models are sufficient for domestic use.
We are proud to be able to offer our range of robust, reliable and powerful log splitters to customers across the United Kingdom through our trusted dealer network. Through this network, you can gain access to dealer support, aftercare and spare parts, all to keep your splitter running in top condition.
There are a few reasons why choosing the right log splitter is important for you. The ‘right’ machine depends on timber type, volume and your typical working conditions. These are all aspects that impact your efficiency, so you must consider them.
| Power Type | Best For | Key Benefit |
| PTO | Farmers and tractor owners | Uses tractor power for heavy-duty splitting |
| Petrol | Forestry and remote sites | Mobile and independent |
| Electric | Smallholdings and domestic users | Quieter and practical for occasional use |
Deciding what tonnage you need for your log splitter depends on a variety of factors. Wood density and diameter are the two most important factors, with the general rule of thumb being that the harder the wood, the greater tonnage you require. The denser they are, the more likely you are to require 20-ton or 30-ton splitters.
Most log splitters will note the sweet spot of diameters they are capable of efficiently splitting. Before purchasing, you should contact the manufacturer to clarify. All log splitters at Oxdale Products come with this information in the description, so you can browse and compare models easily.
For the average log splitting operation, you’re unlikely to need more than 16 tons worth of splitting force, with 10 tons being sufficient. For heavy agriculture usage, you may require the higher end of tonnage, but for lighter workloads, you can comfortably select a lower tonnage.
Softwood requires a splitting tonnage of between 10 and 12 tons. This is more than enough to easily split these logs. For hardwood species, such as Ash or Oak, a 20-ton splitter is sufficient. Diameter, moisture content, presence of knots and grain structure can all impact your required tonnage.
Horizontal log splitters are designed for those looking for a residential log splitting option. They offer a comfortable splitting height and are capable of splitting smaller logs, great for log burners and log stores.
Vertical log splitters tend to offer greater splitting force, making them more suitable for agricultural environments where they need to split larger logs. They also offer more stability and safety, due to the type of logs they are used to split.
