ABSTRACT:
A device for dismantling roofing materials from a roof. The device is used for removing nails, shingles, ice, carpets, sheathing and to chop through a roof for fire fighting purposes. The body of the device is cast steel. Wings or a cam allow the device to be used on the side of a 2.times.4, rather than being centered over a 2.times.4. The cast steel imparts heft to the device to make the process of dismantling easier. Webbed or rounded root teeth on the leading edge facilitate ripping of shingles and nails. Various embodiments have a sledge hammer, an ax head, a pickhead, a prybar, a pike tool, a ripper, and wings.
