The Stalpen Tree Jack can be used to support leaning trees in an emergency, help fell significant-sized timber in a preferred direction, or dissuade fall-back when creating a proper hinge. This heavy-duty, two-part bar spins apart in the middle for portability and back together quickly for rapid deployment.
From the Swedish company that makes the world’s premier rescue automotive breaching tools comes an all-time winner for portable tree
rigging—the Stalpen Tree Jack. Since 1902, Gränsfors Bruks has been a leader in high-quality products that include a line of competition throwing/cutting axes second to none in their class. Back in 1970, Gränsfors combined one of their most indestructible wrecking bars with a top-notch rack-and-pinion jack to create a mechanical marvel that can move standing timber like nothing you’ve ever seen. Today, the Stalpen rack-and-pinion jack consists of a freewheeling clutch that prevents the crank from backlashing and makes it possible to turn in both directions under full tension without stripping gears! The Stalpen Tree Jack can be used to support leaning trees in an emergency, help fell
significant-sized timber in a preferred direction, or dissuade fall-back when creating a proper hinge. This heavy-duty, two-part bar spins apart in the middle for portability and back together quickly for rapid deployment.
When asked if the Tree Jack is worth the 12 Ben Franklins, ISA Certified Arborist and chain-saw instructor Sean Gere of Wisconsin reports, “Absolutely! It’s incredibly strong and can be used for so many more things than just pushing over trees. Thanks for bringing this awesome tool to America.”
