Description
Cone Log Splitter Auger Bit for Skid Steers & Excavators
Cone Log Splitter Auger is a cone shaped auger bit suitable for mini excavators and skid steer auger drives. The Attachment Company’s compact and robust log splitter auger cone makes light work of processing those larger logs into manageable pieces, quickly and efficiently.
As the log splitter rotates, the self-guiding threaded body engages with the timber and draws the splitter into the log. The conical shape quickly works its way through the log, splitting the log in two. For larger logs, the splitter cone can be repositioned to continue the split along the whole length of the log. The Attachment Company Log Splitter Cone is a quick and easy additional attachment to your existing auger drive.
Each cone features a bolt on replaceable tip. You can add a replacement tip to your order so you are ready when the time comes to replace. Or contact us when you need one!
Log Splitter Models:
- LSC200 – 8″ Diameter (200mm) – 12″ Tall (300mm) – 45lbs (cone only)
- LSC250 – 10″ Diameter (250mm) – 15″ Tall (380mm) – 70lbs (cone only)
- LSC300 – 12″ Diameter (300mm) – 19″ Tall (480mm) – 110lbs (cone only)
Cone Splitter Requirements
- LSC200 – 8″ Diameter – Minimum Recommended Torque: 1,500ft-lbs – Ideal for mini skid steers, skid steers and mini excavators over 1.5 tons!
- LSC250 – 10″ Diameter – Minimum Recommended Torque: 2,500ft-lbs – Ideal for skid steers & excavators over 4 tons!
- LSC300 – 12″ Diameter – Minimum Recommended Torque: 4,000ft-lbs – Ideal for large track loaders with high flow auger drives and excavators over 5 tons!
All cones are now machined with a 2″ hex cutout inside the cone itself to eliminate the need for a bolt on adapter, unless your output shaft is now 2″ hex. For any round, 2.5″ or square output shafts, we will build a bolt on adapter that bolts on top of the cone through 6 bolts.
On a lot of machines – using a larger cone doesn’t always lead to increased efficiency. Choosing the right size is important, but you can choose a cone to suit your needs. If it doesn’t meet our criteria listed above, we cannot guarantee that it will work effectively.

Frequently Asked Question’s
It depends a lot on the wood type and the machine and auger drive that it is fitted on. For larger logs, you can make multiple attempts by moving from one end of the log to the other to help with splitting.
Yes! We supply each cone with an extra tip to replace when your original tip gets worn out. The tip bolts down through the middle of the cone.
The cone is made from one piece of machined steel. The tip is made of 40HM that is additionally hardened to 48HRC.
Yes, the cones are now machined to accept 2" hex shafts. 2-9/16" round output shafts, square, or lager hex shafts will require a bolt on adapter.
We recommend smaller skid steers and excavators with drives which torque output is below 2,000ft-lbs use the 8" cone.
For the 10" cone we recommend a larger skid steer or excavator with more than 2,500ft-lbs of torque. And over 4,000ft-lbs is recommended for the 12" cone.
This is a rough guideline. The larger cone can work on smaller drives but the more torque and weight on the operating machine, helps with operation of the cone effectively.

This is one of the hardiest product I’ve ever bought. I split some 4 to 5 year old white oak butt ends and a semi load of 10ft x2ft white oak logs down so I can run them through my skid steer processor. And I’ll put an auger on this summer. Thank you Andrew you were excellent to work with

We received our cone splitter last week and enjoyed using it. At the end of the day my boss wanted to try it and sure enough he broke it and gave us a good laugh. He snapped the collar that bolts to the top of the cone. We welded it back together and are up and running again but we’d like to order another to have on hand as a backup
