## Description

The capacity for the Lifting/Skidding Tongs is 1,500 pounds, enabling you to handle large tasks. Designed with 2 unique, sharp gripping teeth that pierce deep for a secure hold that you can count on, the balanced geometry keeps pulls smooth across uneven ground. A powder-coated finish adds a clean, durable surface, while the bright color improves visibility in brush, snow, or stacked wood so your equipment is easy to find between tasks. Ideal for easily lifting and skidding logs, this is a must-have tool for your log lifting and skidding needs. For dependable outdoor performance and straightforward hookup, Timber Tuff provides the strength, bite, and control needed to streamline timber handling and daily wood operations.

Review: Works - Very heavy
Review: THE tool for moving log pieces easily! - I bought this after a tornado took down several old-growth trees on my rural property. Didn’t have a tractor to move the cut log pieces, so I used this on my truck’s hitch to drag The logs closer to where I keep my woodpile. This set of jaws works great, my only regret is that I didn’t buy a bigger set, because I had cut several logs into lengths larger than these could accommodate. In addition to using these on my hitch, I also had no issue using heavy-duty carabiners and a recovery/tow strap to aid in reaching logs I couldn’t back my truck up to easily. I kept a sledge hammer handy to help pound the tips of the jaws in to the logs when I couldn’t maintain tension to make the jaws grip automatically. Bottom line: if you need to move wood from one spot to another, and have a vehicle you could hook this to, you can get the job done without a tractor or heavy machinery. This has proven to be a valuable tool in my tree maintenance stash! If I can find a larger set, I’ll probably end up getting it too!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tough product
*by M***Y on December 10, 2022*

Great product, works fine so far for me. I've lifted about a couple dozen southern yellow pine logs (green) with it, up to 10' logs at 20" OD (~900 LBS) and bigger; one was 16' at 14" OD. No other support, all the weight is on just the tongs (the chain in the picture is just leveling the log). Get a good grab and it holds just fine. I drive it around hanging from my truck for around 2-3 minutes, bumping and swinging. Haven't had it slip or lose grab at all. Either this was a used product or low quality since the paint was chipping and had a little bit of surface rust on the ring. Still giving 5 stars because those are not big issues to me. It's also easy to use, works easy with my chains and winch.
