There are many factors that influence how a stone will split, such as grain orientation, weathering, and general composition. Occasionally, there will be visual clues or features that will help identify the way in which a stone will have a more natural tendency to split. However, it often simply comes down to employing the right tools with the right technique.
From stone splitting hammers and hand tools to traditional splitting wedges, Trow & Holden manufactures a wide range of products intended to leverage the natural features and composition of stone to split where intended.
