Wedge JUCO 32923, weight 3 kg, single piece

Wedge JUCO 32923, weight 3 kg, single piece is a compact, single-piece metal wedge designed for splitting, prying and positioning tasks in workshop, construction and forestry environments. The wedge is manufactured as a single unit and provides a concentrated driving face and stepped working surface that helps prevent the tool from pulling out during use. Supplied one piece per pack, it is intended where a heavy, durable metal wedge is required to drive into wood or other materials for separation or alignment.

Advantages

The single-piece metal design offers stability and impact resistance, reducing the risk of tool failure under repeated strikes. At approximately 3 kg, the wedge delivers substantial driving force while remaining compact enough for manual handling and use with a sledgehammer. The stepped working surface improves grip in the wood, limiting backward motion and increasing splitting efficiency. The simple, robust construction requires minimal maintenance and is suitable for demanding outdoor and workshop conditions.

Suitable for

• Splitting logs and large pieces of hardwood
• Prying or separating timber components during demolition or repair
• Positioning and aligning heavy wooden or structural elements
• General workshop and forestry splitting tasks where a compact heavy wedge is needed

Key specifications

• Construction: single-piece metal wedge
• Weight: 3 kg (approximate working mass)
• Working surface: stepped profile to resist withdrawal during splitting
• Primary use: splitting, prying and positioning in wood and similar materials
• Supply: sold as a single unit per pack

How to use

Position the wedge with the tapered edge against the wood at the intended split line. Use a suitably rated sledgehammer to drive the wedge into the material with controlled, firm strikes until the wood separates or the desired position is achieved. For larger logs, drive multiple wedges or work progressively along the length to control the split. Always ensure stable footing and secure the workpiece to prevent movement while striking.

Usage recommendations

Wear appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety goggles, gloves and safety boots. Inspect the wedge for visible damage or deformation before use and avoid striking the wedge at extreme angles that could cause chipping or bending. For prolonged outdoor storage, keep the wedge dry or apply light corrosion protection to maintain its condition.
