VSG 40078 Description
The Notch 8-inch Felling Wedge is the mid-size option in the Notch felling wedge lineup, suited for larger-diameter timber where the 5.5-inch wedge may not provide sufficient lift to open the back cut and prevent saw pinching. Made from high-impact ABS plastic with a double taper for easy initial placement, and textured surfaces on both sides to resist backing out during driving.
The Easy-Head grip provides a clear, secure striking surface when driving the wedge with a mallet or maul. Color-coded heads distinguish size at a glance in the field. Built-in ruler indicators on the sides allow the operator to monitor wedge depth and cut progress. Wear safety glasses when driving. Available in 5.5-inch, 8-inch, and 10-inch sizes.
VSG 40078 Features
8 in. for Larger Timber
The 8-inch length provides greater lift for larger-diameter timber where the 5.5-inch wedge is insufficient, keeping the saw from pinching during the back cut on bigger trees.
Double-Tapered ABS Plastic
High-impact ABS plastic with double taper allows easy initial placement into the kerf while providing the durability to withstand repeated driving without cracking or deforming.
Textured Surface: Prevents Backing Out
Textured surface on both sides bites into the wood to resist backing out during driving, maintaining wedge position and opening pressure in the back cut as force is applied.
Easy-Head Grip with Ruler Indicators
Easy-Head grip provides a secure striking target for a mallet or maul. Built-in ruler indicators on the sides allow the operator to gauge wedge depth and back cut progress during the fell.
