We've designed our own line of felling wedges—refined through years of real-world experience.
Here's what makes them stand out:
-
Longer Length – Gentler profile for easier driving and smoother lifting. The front can be reshaped multiple times for a longer lifespan.
-
Wider Design – More surface area to strike. Still fits all existing WCS scabbards.
-
Sharper Front Edge – Fits into tighter kerfs.
-
Angled Corners – Prevents mushrooming during use.
-
Bright Orange – Easy to spot on the job.
-
Textured Finish – Great for stacking.
-
Durable High-Impact Plastic – Built to last.
Designed and manufactured in Washington State.
FAQs:
1. What is the best material for felling wedges?
The best material for felling wedges is typically a lightweight plastic polymer or a high-strength metal. Plastic polymer wedges offer a blend of durability and ease of handling, which is crucial for precise control during tree felling operations.
2. What is the difference between a splitting wedge and a felling wedge?
Splitting wedges are designed to split logs along the wood grain, and usually have a sharper, narrower edge. A felling wedge, on the other hand, is used to control the direction a tree will fall. It typically has a wider angle and a blunt edge to effectively influence the direction without cutting further into the tree.
