Mine has seen a tonne of action, and has been run over with a forklift twice. It still works perfectly. You can strip the planks off a pallet in a fraction of the time it would take with crowbars etc. 90% of the time the planks come away without damage.

 

I don't know if you would recommend one if you have no interest in using recycled pallet wood in building projects because of the cost of the bar, although it would still save a load of time.

 

I see that there is a cheapo 'Rough neck' bar also available from various shops, although I doubt you'd get years of service out of it.

Looks like it could double up as a breaker bar for felling.

 

I'd have bought one of these if I'd known about them as I used to have dozens of pallets to dispose of each year.

 

I ripped them down with a chainsaw between the blocks and burned them in the Talbott.

Many thanks.

Many of the pallets we get are 14' x 10' roughly...

 

Usually use a chainsaw, but after being informed of those dismantling bars, they look way easier than having to swing a saw and avoid nails while doing it....
