Gahring Machine Forced Entry Aluminum Wedge 6061-T6

Working on one of the Nations largest Fire Rescue Departments, driving one of the dozen+ 105’ Straight sticks, this wedge in the short time I have had it, has proven itself to be the single most valuable piece of equipment I think I have ever purchased. To the point I have made three additional orders for my crew, other drivers and our company captain as well. Need to gain more leverage when forcing a door, hold what you got with progress, wedge a door for the rescue crew, or for PPV, this work horse has you covered. End of story! 100% professional firefighter recommended, and approved.

If you don’t want to spend 40+ on the 8 wedge than this is perfect for you. I pair it with my badaxx and put a slight edge on it to get a better purchase point. It also comes with the bundgie which helps pair to which ever tool you want to use it with.

This wedge is awesome. It marries perfectly with your probar allowing for one tool forcible entry. No longer do you need an axe to pair with the halligan. Simply hammer the wedge into the gap you wish to force and it will hold your progress. Then use your halligan like normal.

This wedge has very soft metal that will warp and create sharp edges quickly, requiring grinding to maintain after each use. Also, it came with the edge of the wedge uneven, requiring immediate maintenance to make it right. Would not recommend this product, go with something more high quality.

Works great

Wedge works well, but I might have gelot too rough with it and it bent, but I was able to bend it back and it still works

This is a great product I have been using it on the door props at work and it works well and is very strong. It can for sure take a beating I will say I might put like a strap around it so I don’t lose it the second I get the door forced. All in all good product go buy it!

Will the wedge do the job, yes. However the lines are not straight and the edges are rounded and some have a sharp point. Seems like the company just punched a bunch out and could careless about how it looks.

Only had it a few months and it’s already come in handy for forcible entry as well as an elevator rescue. I’m one of those guys that keeps it on their helmet and it’s pretty lightweight and doesn’t feel weird being on your head. Just be cautious the edge is razor sharp

Great tool for every fire fighter
