Hydraulic-powered cut-off saws can improve safety

Hydraulic-powered cut-off saws can improve safety

The SAW 16 and SAW 14 are hydraulic-powered cut-off saws for cutting concrete, asphalt, cement, brick and steel, and feature a 16- and 14-inch blade, respectively. The saws have a simple direct-drive configuration that provides consistent speed and torque during use. The design minimizes overall maintenance requirements, especially when compared with belt-driven saws.

The saws are versatile enough for a variety of tasks, including demolition, underwater repairs and utility maintenance work. Optimum performance is achieved when powered by a carrier with hydraulic capabilities or by a Chicago Pneumatic hydraulic power pack. The power source can be positioned as much as 75 feet away, allowing the operator to work safely in confined areas without requiring additional ventilation.

The SAW 16 and SAW 14 can achieve cutting depths of 4.9 and 3.9 inches, respectively, when mounted in a cart.
