BBT 20T Horizontal Petrol Log Splitter – Serious Splitting Power for Australian Properties
Built for Bigger Firewood Jobs
When your firewood workload grows, you need more than just a bigger engine—you need a machine designed to process timber efficiently, reliably and day after day.
The BBT 20T Horizontal Petrol Log Splitter has been engineered for acreage owners, hobby farmers, rural properties and serious firewood users looking for genuine hydraulic performance without stepping into a large commercial splitter.
Powered by a dependable Genuine JD 6.5HP 4-Stroke Petrol Engine, the BBT delivers 20 tonnes of continuous rated splitting force and has been tested to 30 tonnes, providing outstanding performance when processing demanding Australian hardwoods and softwoods.
Unlike smaller homeowner splitters, the BBT 20T is equipped with a 30LPM two-stage hydraulic pump, allowing the ram to travel quickly until resistance is encountered before automatically switching to high-pressure mode for maximum splitting force.
Despite its heavy-duty construction, the BBT has been carefully designed for practical everyday use. Its balanced weight distribution, ergonomic transport handle and large 10-inch pneumatic wheels make the machine surprisingly easy to manoeuvre around sheds, timber piles and work areas.
Featuring an ergonomic single-handed control lever with automatic ram return, 3500 PSI hydraulic pressure, 90mm hydraulic cylinder, 520mm log capacity and a reinforced all-steel chassis, this splitter is built for years of dependable firewood production.
Backed by Australia's trusted Bigger Boyz Toyz support network, genuine spare parts availability and a 2-Year Warranty, it's ready to tackle your toughest firewood projects.

- 30LPM two-stage hydraulic pump
- 90mm heavy-duty hydraulic cylinder
- 10 Litres ISO68 hydraulic oil
The two-stage hydraulic pump delivers rapid ram movement under low resistance before automatically changing to high-pressure mode when maximum splitting force is required.
The result is a machine that's both fast and powerful.
20 Ton Rated Splitting Force – Tested to 30 Tonnes
The hydraulic system delivers 20 tonnes of continuous rated splitting force and has been independently tested to 30 tonnes.
Actual splitting performance depends on several factors including:

Frequently Asked Questions
Who is the BBT 20T best suited for?
The BBT 20T is ideal for acreage owners, hobby farmers, rural properties and serious home users who regularly prepare larger quantities of firewood or process dense Australian hardwoods.
Is it difficult to move?
Not at all.
Although the BBT 20T weighs 110kg, its balanced design, ergonomic transport handle and large 10-inch pneumatic wheels make it surprisingly easy for one person to manoeuvre around the property.
Can it split Australian hardwoods?
Yes.
The BBT 20T is designed to process a wide variety of Australian hardwoods and softwoods. Performance depends on timber species, moisture content, knots and grain direction.
What does "20 Ton Rated – Tested to 30 Ton" mean?
The splitter delivers 20 tonnes of continuous rated hydraulic splitting force during normal operation and has been tested under higher loads up to 30 tonnes.
Actual splitting performance depends on the characteristics of each log rather than a single tonnage figure.
What is the advantage of the two-stage hydraulic pump?
The two-stage hydraulic pump allows the ram to travel quickly while under low resistance before automatically switching to high-pressure mode when additional force is required.
