Built with an industrial I-beam and finished in a durable orange powder coat, this splitter is designed for long-lasting strength and performance.

Powered by the Honda GC160 residential-grade engine, it offers reliable starts and dependable operation. (Prefer a commercial engine? Check out the Brave VH1724GX, which comes with the Honda GX160.)
