Roughneck Gorilla ROU64640 Demolition & Lifting Bar Tool - Heavy-Duty Prying Tool for Ripping & Lifting Floorboards, Beams

My husband was happy with this. He had donation of 20 pallets to make rustic planters. He spent less than an hour dismantling them and stacking all the planks. Now he just needs to make the planters. I’m sure he’ll get round to it. He did say he prefers the demolition side of things and was looking for more jobs to use this on. He said it was sturdy and well made. He can be heavy handed but found this stood up to his treatment of use. It really did make short work of dismantling old pallets without breaking them. Well worth it.

This is great tool. I used to lift the old decking wood and worked very well. My builder came to my garden work and saw this and he fell in love to this tool so he borrowed few days and came back with it so I gave him for his hard work. He said this is great to break some pallet timbers. It's solid and a bit heavy tool but strong.

This tool is a lot easier to use than a lump hammer and a wrecking bar. Should have got one years ago.

The package arrived promptly, in a long cardboard box, showing an image of the contents (pallet buster) on one side. The tool was wrapped in clear plastic bags. These had dents / scratches / marks on the ends showing the tool had been moved around quite a bit before being shipped, but the tool itself had no marks or scratches. The "fork" ends were covered with removable rubber tops, and that is a very nice touch. Maybe they can remain there or only be used if you want to reduce the chance of denting the wood. I find the tool to be a bit short. I am 1,80 mt tall and would prefer the bar to be maybe 20/ cm longer. Either that or maybe bending the handle the opposite way (towards the fork side) to take more benefit of your strength when pulling. I will try to find an extension - piece of sturdy metal tube that can be attached to the top end of the bar whenever needed. I only tried it on 2 or 3 palette planks yet. (now this palette was one of those where they only use a couple of straight nails on each "connection point", not the type where the tip of the nails is bent inwards and the planks are harder to remove without breaking). So, a bit of force was needed, but nothing too demanding. In fact, after I loosened a bit one of the planks, my (almost) 6 yr son could use the tool easily to "help" me. Suggestions: in the future add the 'nail removal' feature as the model ROU64644 has. Overall satisfied, as I have dismantled pallets using a combination of hammer / crow bar / wooden wedge / and other tools , and using the pallet buster is much much easier and I am sure it will make me sweat a lot less. :)

Absolutely brilliant tool. This one replaced one I bought some time ago which never returned from a borrow! Used lately for lifting decking boards, levering some other underpinnings into position prior to fixing. Breaks down pallets, "joggles" pavers into position and so many other jobs I can't think of just now. Highly recommended by me and if you decide to buy, don't lend it out!

This is one of the best tools I have ever used for doing the job it was designed for. Before using a hammer, crowbar etc would take forever to dismantle a pallet and result from n a few broken pieces. Now with this breaker bar, once you master the technique in only a few minutes you can successfully dismantle a range of pallets. Very strong and robust too. Brilliant.

Best toll I have ever bought

Let me tell you about the day I met the Roughneck Gorilla Pallet Wrecker. I was knee-deep in a forest of pallets, each one held together by what I can only assume were cursed nails forged in the fires of Mount Doom. These things weren’t just nailed - they were nailed with vengeance. I tried prying. I tried pleading. I considered summoning a priest. Then came the Gorilla. This beast of a tool doesn’t ask pallets to come apart - it demands it. With every use, it channels the raw energy of a thousand angry lumberjacks. Boards flew. Nails screamed. I laughed like a man possessed. It was like Thor’s hammer had a baby with a crowbar and raised it on protein shakes and demolition videos. Yes, it’s heavy-duty. Yes, it’s built like a tank. And yes, it turned my pile of stubborn wooden nightmares into glorious, splintery kindling, faster than you can say “bonfire season.” My boiler room now smells faintly of victory and pine. Five stars for turning frustration into firewood. If you’ve ever stared into the soulless eyes of a pallet and whispered, “I will break you,” this is the tool that makes it happen.

Super produit rien à dire de plus

Muy facil desmontar un palet en 10 minutos lo tienes hecho. Perfecto para palets americanos, para palets europeos alguna tabla se puede resistir, por que el hueco entre las uñas es de 8,8cm. Tambien sirve para mover objetos pesados pienso que objetos 100kg no tienes problema ninguno en moverlos ya la barra es fuerte y robusta.

Ho preso quest'attrezzo per mio padre, che si ostinava a spaccare i pallet con un attrezzo costruito da lui stesso, ma contro il quale inveiva ogni volta che lo usava. E' stato molto contento del regalo, lo trova comodo e lo sta utilizzando per demolire la sua catasta di pallet (ormai pensavo li collezionasse...). Forse è un pochino corto per essere utilizzato da un uomo, infatti il manico misura meno di un metro e lo costringe a lavorare piegato, però l'impugnatura è ergonomica e comoda, e vedo che sta risparmiando tempo ed energie. L'oggetto è ben fatto, rifinito bene e robusto, pare destinato a svolgere la sua funzione per lungo tempo. Il prezzo è decisamente abbordabile e vale la pena comprarlo se si hanno cataste di pallet da smontare.

Pomocny przy rozbieraniu palet. Faktycznie mógłby być nieco szerszy rozstaw. Przy szerszych deskach trzeba kombinować, aby rozebrać paletę. I dla wyższej osoby za krótki trzonek, o jakieś chociaż 10cm
