Stanley 55-136 Slotted Claw Wrecking Bar

Product Description

The STANLEY 55-136 is a slotted claw wrecking bar built for heavy demolition work. It is designed to deliver the leverage and durability needed when prying apart framing, pulling nails, removing subflooring, and similar high-force tasks. The bar features a high-visibility powder-coat finish that makes it easy to locate on a busy jobsite and provides added resistance to corrosion and surface wear. At 5.3 pounds, it carries enough mass to back up aggressive prying without excessive fatigue during extended use. This tool is used by carpenters, demolition contractors, remodelers, and general tradespeople who need a reliable bar for structural tear-out and material removal.

The 55-136 is suited for residential and light commercial demolition applications. Common install scenarios include wall framing removal, deck deconstruction, concrete form stripping, and pallet or crate breaking. The slotted claw end provides a secure purchase on nail heads and fasteners, reducing slip during high-force pulls. The powder-coat finish adds jobsite visibility and surface protection in wet or dusty environments.
