​Our Log arch first came about because we needed to move a large log from a customers back garden. The customer offered us use of his lawn tractor to help move the log so we designed the first log arch and extracted a 10 foot long 500kg log with a lawn tractor !
 
Once you have used the Logster Log Arch, you will wonder how you ever managed without one.
 
Our Log Arches are suitable for use with a quad bike, car/van, 4x4 or compact tractor
 
There are two sizes of log arch available. The small one is rated at 500kg, and will fully suspend a 20" 8 foot long log. The large arch is rated at 750kg and will fully suspend a 10 foot 28" log. You can move larger logs than this by lifting the butt end and skidding the tip. Using this method you can move some really huge bits of timber with ease.
 
The logster log arch is made from sturdy box section and tube. It is braced and gussetted to ensure it is up to the job. After it is made, we send it to be Hot Dip Galvanised which gives many years of rust protection inside and out.
 
Our log arches all come with a high quality winch. We have tried most types of winch starting with the cheap chinese ones from Ebay. Most of them were rubbish for this application, but we now use a Dutton Lainson double braked winch which is made in the USA and has a 5 year guarantee. We have not had any problems with these winches. It is also possible to use the arch with tongs which you just hang from the pulley block mounting at the back of the arch or use with the winch.
 
Our wheels, tyres, axles and hitches are properly specced and rated for the job. Many people use quad bike tyres for trailers, etc.... and they are only rated for 300-400kg.  We can also supply the Log Arch with Kevlar tyres which are close to indestructable.
 
The drawbar on Logster Log Arches is fully removable. This is so that you can take it off if you want to fully suspend very long pieces of timber. When you use it in this mode, you will often be winching the arch out, or manually pulling it out with a few people. There are two handy handles for using the arch in this mode.
Log Arch arrived as planned. Been hauling timber all afternoon. Great bit of kit, very pleased with it
