Skidding Tongs

These skidding tongs are designed to make it easier to lift, drag, and position logs around your property. Built from high-strength steel with sharp, angled teeth, they bite securely into the wood to maintain a firm grip while moving logs across the ground or lifting them clear of obstacles.

Available in models that open wide enough to handle logs up to 28" or 32" in diameter, the tong geometry allows the jaws to tighten as load is applied, helping keep the log centered and stable during pulls. This makes them well suited for skidding logs out of the bush or repositioning material near your mill or landing area.

The tongs can be used with tractors, ATVs, or winches, making them a flexible tool for clearing trails, managing storm-downed trees, or staging logs for milling. It’s a straightforward, mechanical solution for moving logs when you don’t have lifting equipment on hand.
