A high-quality wedge is almost as essential to tree felling and bucking as the chainsaw itself. The STIHL High-Impact Felling Wedges are engineered to provide the leverage and safety needed for controlled felling. When properly placed, these wedges prevent the tree from sitting back and pinching your chainsaw bar, ensuring the tree falls accurately in the direction of your notch cut.
Built to professional standards, these wedges are constructed from a high-impact polymer that can withstand heavy strikes and the rigors of daily forestry work. Whether you are dealing with large timber or smaller backyard removals, STIHL wedges provide the reliable performance and durability required to keep your equipment safe and your cuts on track.
Key Features & Benefits

- High-Visibility Design: Made with textured surfaces to grip the wood fibers securely, preventing the wedge from slipping out under pressure.
Durable Construction
