Ideal for de-molding larger parts such as boat hulls. Gently insert wedges around perimeter of mold and then apply low air pressure. These wedges are drilled and tapped (hole has internal threads) for 1/4" fittings. Two different size wedges are shown below, and each size is available with or without a blow gun.
Please see our Standard wedges page for soft, medium, or hard demolding wedges without internal threads molded into the ends.
Tomahawk wedges
Both wedges are the same blue, medium flex beveled end wedges. These wedges are placed in several areas of the mold to maintain pressure in desired areas. Both wedges are drilled and tapped (hole has internal threads) for 1/4" fittings. One includes a blow gun, the other does not.

Heavy-duty/handle wedges
Blue, heavy-duty handle wedges are made from poly material making them stiff and rugged. The tip can be ground for extended service life. Comfortable handles offer great balance which make them ideal for use as an edge hammer. The tapered end provides easy and quick insertion into the mold. “Shoulders” where the handle meets the widened area are designed to allow another wedge to push for deep cavity insertion. This handle wedge is generally used for tapping or driving other wedges into the mold and to "break" edges where the fiberglass part meets the edge of the mold. Both wedges are drilled and tapped (hole has internal threads) for 1/4" fittings. One includes a blow gun, the other does not.
