Crowbar STANLEY Brecheisen 60 cm Model 1-55-503 — 60 cm pry bar, steel construction

STANLEY Brecheisen Model 1-55-503 is a 60 cm crowbar engineered for prying, lifting and light demolition tasks. Made from solid steel, the tool delivers the necessary leverage to remove boards, extract nails and separate joined materials. Its 60 cm length increases reach and mechanical advantage, making controlled force application easier for workshop, construction and renovation jobs.

Advantages

The steel construction provides high durability and resistance to bending under typical prying loads. The 60 cm length balances reach and control, enabling efficient force transfer while remaining manageable for one-person use. Both ends are shaped for versatile engagement with nails, gaps and edges, allowing the tool to function as a pry bar, nail puller and lever. Its simple, robust design requires minimal maintenance and performs reliably in a range of manual tasks.

Suitable for

• Removing floorboards, panels and skirting
• Extracting nails and fasteners
• Separating joined timber or materials during demolition
• Lifting and aligning components during installation
• General workshop and construction prying tasks

Key specifications

• Overall length: 60 cm
• Material: steel construction for high strength
• Ends: dual-ended profile for prying and nail extraction
• Finish: durable surface treatment to reduce corrosion and wear
• Weight: suitable balance for manual leverage use

How to use

Position the appropriate end of the crowbar into the gap or under the edge of the material to be pried. Apply steady, controlled pressure with the handle to gain leverage; use a fulcrum point (such as a block of wood) to increase mechanical advantage and protect the surface beneath. For nail removal, engage the nail head with the claw and rock the crowbar back to extract the fastener. Work in small, controlled increments to avoid sudden slips or damage to surrounding materials.

Usage recommendations

Wear appropriate hand protection and eye protection when prying or demolishing materials. Use a wooden or plastic fulcrum to avoid scoring finished surfaces. Inspect the crowbar before use for any signs of excessive wear or deformation; replace if damaged. Store in a dry place to minimize corrosion.
