60 Ton Hydraulic Log Splitter

Description

60 Ton Hydraulic Log Splitter — Built for Western Australia’s Toughest Hardwood

Perth Sales Machinery Hire Pty Ltd proudly supplies one of the most robust hydraulic log splitters on the market — engineered specifically for the extreme demands of Australian hardwoods, known globally as some of the hardest and most twisted timber to split.

Key Specifications & Features

✓ Genuine 60 Ton Splitting Force

• Heavy-duty hydraulic system with a 6.9” Bore Inner Diameter. Metal hydraulic cylinder and with a 60 mm ram shaft — minimises flex and maximises splitting power.

• Upgraded Genkin E-Start 456cc / 18hp engine with high flow, high pressure (18 GPM, >3200 psi) pump.

✓ Purpose-Built for WA Hardwoods

• Specially designed wedge and base plate — not cast iron — resistant to bending when splitting knotty, twisted jarrah, marri, and other local hardwoods.

• Wedge base plate thickness increased from 12 mm to 16 mm for added strength.

✓ Improved Stability & Log Control

• Redesigned foot with large 500 mm cradle and reinforced cross-welded plate prevents bending and holds logs firmly in place.

• Bigger criss-cross grips keep logs secure during the splitting cycle.

✓ Smart Engineering Details

• Metal hydraulic breather cap (upgrade from plastic).

• Control valve relocated from top of ram to side — reduces vibration and prevents oil leaks common in other designs.

• Temperature gauge on the oil tank — monitor fluid temperature and prevent overheating that degrades seals and ram performance.

• Footplate re-engineered to eliminate bending under maximum force.

✓ Extra Usability Features

• Supplied with heavy-duty jockey wheel and convenient side table — makes positioning and working easier.

• Thoughtful upgrades are based on real-world feedback from hire and field use — tested in harsh conditions to exceed typical domestic performance.

✓ Crate & Delivery Dimensions

• Crate size: 230 mm (L) × 500 mm (W) × 550 mm (H)

• Weight: 420kg

Why This Splitter is Different

Many splitters claim big tonnage but fail where it matters: wedge strength, foot construction, ram flex and heat handling.
We know — because we’ve hired them out, stress-tested them, and rebuilt them better.

Our 60 Ton model solves the hidden weak spots:

• Stronger wedge and foot — no more bent plates.

• Heavy-duty seals and temperature monitoring — avoid internal damage.

• Quality parts stocked locally — we hold all major spare components, compatible with other common models too.

Built with Practical Experience

We’ve split thousands of logs and repaired countless machines. Hiring equipment taught us how people push splitters to their limit. That knowledge has been built into every improvement — so you get a machine that works, lasts, and stays easy to maintain.
