Mauls
Mauls
For work that involves splitting rounds, knocking wedges into place or setting fence posts in hard ground, you need more than just an axe — you need a maul. These tools are designed for blunt force, not finesse, and bring the weight and balance needed to break up thick, knotted wood. Mauls from Tractor Supply offer rugged strength for the heavy strikes and repeated use that come with daily labor. Instead of taking a beating, these striking tools dish one out with each swing.
Lawn Tools That Pack a Punch
On jobs where impact matters more than precision, you’ll be glad you have a maul from our selection in your hands. Their thick, wedge-shaped heads generate a splitting force that pushes logs apart rather than trying to cut clean through. This makes them ideal for seasoned wood, dense rounds or anything with knots that axes can’t handle. Whether you’re splitting for heat, clearing out storm-downed trees or working through a stack before winter, a maul is the kind of tool that is straightforward and highly effective.
Heads That Do the Heavy Lifting
The heart of any maul is its broad, weighted and purpose-built head that splits rather than slices. Some feature flat backs that double as a striking face for wedges or stakes, so you have more options in a single tool. The extra width in the blade helps push wood fibers outward as the maul drives in, making it especially useful on thick or twisted grain. These heads are shaped for power and reliability, not show. If you’re dealing with tough timber, this kind of lawn tool won’t slow down when the wood gets tricky.
The metal that makes up splitting heads on mauls must be strong and reliable for years of use, which is why ours are often made with steel. Between knotty hardwood and frozen rounds, the edge of the blade needs to stay intact even after hundreds of strikes. This is the kind of steel you can use with full force and expect it to last. A maul that holds up over time means fewer replacements and fewer delays when you’ve got work to do.
Handles That Fit the Work
Not all maul handles are created equal, and the choice between composite, fiberglass or hickory matters more than you’d think. Fiberglass handles are light and strong, often with molded grips to help reduce vibration and keep your hands steady. Composite options offer added durability with less flex, and they’re often reinforced where it counts most. If you prefer a more traditional feel in your hands, hickory is a popular option because of its toughness. Each material offers its own benefits depending on how you work, but all are meant to handle repeated impact and hard conditions.
