The Powerjack is a melee weapon for the Pyro class. It is comprised of an antique automobile jack with a team-colored car battery strapped to its base.

This weapon deals more damage compared to the default Fire Axe, making it the most powerful melee weapon. Upon gaining a kill with the Powerjack or having the enemy die from suicide after hitting them with the Powerjack, the player is awarded 75 health. Should the Pyro be missing less than 75 health at the time, the remainder will be filled and the excess will be given as overheal. The trade-off is that the Powerjack does no random Crits.

Trivia

  • Similar to the Homewrecker, the Powerjack can also be used with any achievements requiring the use of an Axe.
  • The Powerjack does not need to land the killing blow on an enemy, or even hit the enemy at all for its healing factor to activate, it merely needs to be the Pyro's current weapon when the kill is achieved. For example, if a Pyro lights an enemy on fire with the Flamethrower and then switches to the Powerjack before the enemy is killed by the Afterburn, the Pyro will be healed for 75 Health.
  • The Powerjack like the Southern Hospitality and the Scotsman's Skullcutter is one of the only few weapons that can kill a Soldier in one crit. However like the Southern Hospitality, since the Powerjack doesn't crit the chances of this happening are rare at best.
