Horizontal Log Splitters

A horizontal wood splitter is a practical and efficient solution for splitting logs at home. Designed for ease of use, Scheppach horizontal log splitters are perfect for preparing logs for wood burners or fireplaces. Simply place the wood horizontally between the pressure plate and the splitting wedge — then let the machine do the work. The pressure plate pushes the wood into the wedge, splitting it smoothly and safely. 

With a typical splitting force of up to 7 tonnes, a firewood splitter like this is ideal for domestic use. It runs on a standard 230V power supply and is suitable for logs up to 55cm in length-more than enough for most firewood tasks. Thanks to its compact design and wheeled base, it’s easy to move and store, even in smaller spaces. 

Other benefits of a Scheppach horizontal splitter include two-handed safety controls, stable construction, and simple one-person operation. While it may require more effort to lift logs into place compared to vertical models, it’s more affordable, easier to handle, and perfect for regular household use. 

If you're looking for a safe, reliable, and space-saving way to split wood at home, a horizontal wood splitter from Scheppach is a smart and dependable choice.
