Frequently asked questions

Common questions about COUNCIL TOOL from 3G Electric.

What handle materials are available for Council Tool replacement axe handles?

Council Tool replacement axe handles are offered in two materials: wood and fiberglass. Wood handles, such as models 70-36S-B (36 inch) and 70-28C-B (28 inch), are suitable for head weights up to 9 lb and 3 lb respectively. Fiberglass handles, like model 70-055 (34 inch), are also rated for up to 9 lb head weight. The choice depends on application: wood provides traditional shock absorption, while fiberglass offers increased durability in wet or abrasive conditions.

What is the blade hardness specification for Council Tool splitting mauls?

Council Tool splitting mauls, such as model PR60MFG, have blades hardened to Rc 45-50 on the Rockwell C scale. This hardness range balances edge retention with impact resistance, reducing the risk of chipping during heavy splitting tasks. The blade is made of steel with a nickel-plated finish for corrosion resistance.

Are Council Tool hookaroons and pickaroons available with different handle lengths?

Yes, Council Tool hookaroons and pickaroons are available with wood handles in lengths such as 28 inches and 36 inches. For example, model SU150PKRN28S is a pickaroon with a 28 inch handle, and model SU150PKRN36C has a 36 inch handle. The hookaroon model 150 also features a 36 inch wood handle. Handle length affects leverage and reach for log handling or fire line work.

What is the weight range for Council Tool splitting wedges?

Council Tool splitting wedges, such as model 5W, weigh 5 lb. The wedge is made of steel with an overall length of 9 3/8 inches and an edge length of 2 1/8 inches. This weight provides sufficient mass for splitting large logs without excessive fatigue. Other wedge weights may be available in the product line.

Can Council Tool replacement handles be used with other brands of axe heads?

Council Tool replacement handles are designed to fit Council Tool axe heads, but they may be compatible with other brands if the head weight and eye dimensions match. For example, the fiberglass handle model 70-055 is rated for up to 9 lb head weight and is compatible with Council Tool model 70-055. Always verify the eye size and head weight before installation to ensure a secure fit.
