RuggedMade RuggedSplit - Model 537-24-HE - Log Splitter
The RuggedSplit 537-24-HE is a robust 37-ton log splitter designed for both residential and commercial use. It features dual-mode operation, allowing users to split logs horizontally for smaller sizes or vertically for heavier and taller logs. Powered by a commercial-grade Honda 270cc GX Series OHV engine, it promises reliability and longevity. The hydraulic system is driven by a 16 GPM two-stage pump, ensuring efficient log splitting with a quick cycle time of 15 seconds. Its ergonomic design minimizes user strain with a waist-height beam and includes a 4-way splitting blade to enhance operational efficiency. The hydraulic hoses are steel-reinforced and connected through large 3/4 inch ports to avoid bottlenecks. The machine is built with precision laser-cut steel, solid welds, and powder-coated finish to withstand harsh conditions. With a 24-inch stroke and a solid steel I-beam, it offers a powerful and consistent performance while the hydraulic fluid tank holds up to 8 gallons, suitable for extended use in rugged conditions.

This RS 537-24-HE log splitter is a versatile machine designed to split wood in either a horizontal or vertical position. In the horizontal position, you can quickly split smaller logs that you can easily lift up onto the platform. When handling larger logs, you can tilt the beam into the vertical position and then roll the log under the blade for splitting.
A 4-way solid steel blade is attached to the end of the welded cylinder's 2" rod. When splitting wood, the cylinder drives the blade against the round into the footplate. The footplate is welded to the end of the solid steel beam. When splitting unseasoned wood or wood with large knots, you can remove the 4-way wings and split with the main 2-way blade.
Folding support legs provide stability when operating the unit. When you are ready to move the log splitter, simply unlock the legs and fold them away.
The splitter is powered by a commercial-grade Honda 270cc GX Series OHV electric-start engine. The heart of the hydraulic system is a heavy-duty 16 GPM, 2-stage pump.
