The Powerjack is a melee weapon for the Pyro. It is essentially an automobile jack with a team coloured car battery strapped to the base.
In addition to dealing more damage than the default Fire Axe, gaining a kill with the Powerjack grants the player 75 health. Should the Pyro be missing less than 75 health, the remainder will be filled and the excess will be given as overheal.

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. It is unknown whether this was intentional.
- With the addition of the Mann-conomy update, six classes are now capable of healing themselves. The Scout (with Mad Milk), the Soldier (through successful hits with the Black Box), the Pyro (by killing an enemy with the Powerjack), the Heavy (with his edible devices), the Engineer (building a Dispenser) and the Medic (passive healing, successful hits with the Blutsauger, or the Oktoberfest taunt).
