Product Description

If you tow your wood splitter from job to job, the torsion axle changes the math. The Iron & Oak 30-Ton Torsion Axle delivers the same 30 tons of hydraulic force and Honda GX270 reliability as the standard 30-Ton, but with a torsion axle for smoother towing and a standard engine guard that protects your investment on every trip.

Tow a wood splitter on a straight axle over rough roads for a few seasons and you watch components loosen, fasteners back out, and frames go out of alignment. The Iron & Oak's torsion axle absorbs road impact, and the engine guard shields the Honda GX270 from falling logs and job-site debris. The result is the same premium splitter, built to last longer when you tow often. Pay once, tow and split for years.

A 12-second cycle time and 16 GPM 2-stage pump cycle through tough hardwood without bogging down. Switch between horizontal and vertical with a simple pin pull. The included log cradle and log dislodger eliminate manual unjamming, and the auto-latch beam locks horizontal for safe transport.

This is the splitter that tows clean and works hard.

Ideal For: Mobile firewood operators, rental fleets, tree service crews, and serious DIYers who tow their splitter frequently and want a USA-made premium wood splitter with smoother road performance.

Q&A

Q: What's the difference between this BHVH3018GXT and the standard BHVH3018GX?
A: Same 30 tons of force, same Honda GX270, same hydraulics. The Torsion Axle (GXT) adds a torsion axle for smoother towing and includes a standard engine guard for added Honda protection. Pick the GXT if you tow your splitter regularly between job sites or want the engine guard built in.

Q: Why does a torsion axle matter for a log splitter?
A: A torsion axle absorbs road bumps and uneven ground better than a straight axle — less stress on the splitter frame and components during transport, and an easier ride at highway speeds. The difference shows up over thousands of road miles of regular hauling.

Q: Will the engine guard get in the way of standard maintenance?
A: No. The engine guard is designed to protect the Honda GX270 from falling logs and debris without blocking access to the air filter, oil drain, or fuel cap. Standard service items remain easy to reach.

Q: What's the maximum log size the 30-Ton Torsion can handle?
A: Logs up to 25 inches long with 30 tons of hydraulic force — covering standard firewood lengths and heavy hardwood rounds. Larger logs can be split vertically or quartered first.

Q: Can I add a 4-way wedge to split rounds into four pieces per stroke?
A: Yes. Iron & Oak offers a 4-Way Wedge Kit (sold separately) that fits the standard wedge — useful for high-volume firewood days with consistent log diameters.

Q: Is this splitter ready to tow on the highway?
A: Yes. The torsion axle, 4.8 in. x 8.0 in. highway-rated tires, 2-inch hitch coupler, and tow cables all come standard. The auto-latch beam locks horizontal for safe transport.
