Splitting Wedges / Separators - Guillet

Splitting wedges, also known as expanders, are used to split the largest stones into two parts. These separating wedges are composed of 3 pieces: 2 side wings (which must be inserted into the hole made with the drill) and a central piece, which is the piece struck with the hammer. Choose the size you need from the dropdown below.

It is recommended to use several wedges to split a stone, distributing them along the stone with a palm's distance between each. Technically, a wedge can be placed every length of its size; that is, if the wedge is 20 cm long, 20 cm is the maximum distance between each wedge. Wedges can split up to three times their length, though this depends on the hardness of the stone and other factors. For example, a 20 cm wedge can split a stone up to 60 cm high.
