Rolling Head Bars
There are many tasks made easier with a rolling-head pry bar or wrecking bar, making each an ideal tool to have on a construction site or demolition site. Use a large pry bar to pull, lift, scrape and wedge between items. Whether you need to pull up seals, get between objects or knock off overhanging features, a rolling-head pry bar is a perfect accessory to accommodate a range of tasks. To handle other jobs, stock up on various hand tools and equipment to stay ready for whatever comes your way.
Bar Ends
A rolling-head pry bar features two distinct ends to accomplish different tasks. One end is tapered into a long, pointed spear and can be used to align materials, such as metal and wood. The other end of a wrecking bar sports a 90° rotating head with a hook, which provides a maximum amount of leverage, making it easy to dislodge stubborn, heavy items. There are bars available in many different lengths to suit a variety of applications. Long pry bars are better for reaching into hard-to-access locations, while a large pry bar is well-suited for tasks that require as much leverage as possible.
Bar Construction
Since rolling-head pry bars and wrecking bars are commonly used in intense demolition work, it's important that a rolling-head pry bar is built to withstand even the most vigorous strokes and impacts. Look for a wrecking bar that's made of drop-forged or heat-treated steel with a baked-enamel or black-oxide finish to stand up to every blow without breaking, cracking or chipping.
