Product Description
Milwaukee 26 in. Splitting Axe
Model Number: 48-22-9062
The Milwaukee 48-22-9062 is a 26 in. Splitting Axe — a professional wood splitting tool for splitting firewood rounds into manageable pieces for burning in fireplaces, wood stoves, and outdoor fire pits. The splitting axe's blade geometry is specifically designed for splitting along the wood grain rather than cutting across it — the broad, wedge-shaped head drives down through the wood round and spreads the grain apart to split the round into pieces, using the wood's natural grain line as the splitting path. The 26 in. handle length provides the swing arc and striking velocity needed for effective one-handed splitting of medium to large firewood rounds, generating the kinetic energy at impact that drives the wedge blade through the log's full depth for clean splits in a single blow on properly sized rounds and dry-split wood.
Milwaukee builds the splitting axe from drop-forged quality steel at the head for the impact resistance and edge retention that splitting hardwood and softwood rounds requires through a full season of firewood processing. The handle material provides the vibration dampening and grip needed for comfortable, controlled splitting throughout an extended splitting session. The 26 in. compact format is more maneuverable than full 36 in. maul handles for the backyard and homestead firewood processing applications where the Milwaukee splitting axe delivers practical splitting performance without the full-size maul's weight and swing-arc requirements.
