Pry Bars, Heel Bars

Pry bars and heel bars are steel levers for shifting, lifting, or separating components when mechanical advantage is needed. Used in machinery strip-down, panel removal, formwork, and salvage work. Straight bars suit tight access; angled or offset heads give clearance and multiply force. Hammer caps let you drive the bar in without mushrooming the end. Length and head shape determine what jobs the bar fits.

Match the bar to the task. Straight double-end bars fit into narrow slots and behind trim; angled bars give you leverage in shallow gaps where a straight tool would slip. Head shape matters: flat chisel ends spread load on painted panels, pointed ends get under nails or into rusted joints. Heel bars have a right-angle claw at one end for nail pulling and a flat prying end at the other.

Hammer caps protect the striking face when you're tapping the bar into place. Without one, repeated blows mushroom the steel and create burrs that can slice a glove open. Check the shaft diameter if you're prying against a fulcrum point—thicker bar stock bends less under heavy load, thinner flexes more but fits tighter spaces. Extendable bars add reach without storing multiple lengths; the telescoping shaft locks at set intervals. Sets give you a range of sizes for different access and force requirements in one package.

Steel grade and heat treatment affect durability. Drop-forged bars resist bending better than mild steel. Keep tips sharp with a grinder if you're working around rust or tight seams—a blunt edge skates off instead of biting in. Siegen and Premier both supply forged-steel bars across a range of lengths and profiles for general trade and workshop use.
