An air-powered saw and pipe trolley that cut hard pipe more accurately and faster than using hand grinders, reciprocating hack saws, and clamshell tools are available from ESCO Tool of Medfield, Massachusetts.

The Esco APS-438 Air Powered Saw and WrapTrack® pipe trolley provide a fast method for cutting hard pipe from 6” to 60” dia. by 4” wall; especially in power plant construction applications where speed and accuracy are critical.  Featuring a 3 HP pneumatic motor, the saw comes with fiberglass reinforced abrasive- or diamond tipped carbide blades and the pipe trolley simply clamps around the pipe circumference for rigidly mounting the saw.

Equipped with a bracket that mounts onto the WrapTrack® pipe trolley using four “V” grooved stainless steel roll guides, the Esco APS-438 Air Powered Saw is easy to setup and produces perfectly square cuts with ±1/8” accuracy. Blades are available from 8” to 12” O.D. and the saw is capable of cutting a 10” Sch. 160 pipe in under 10 minutes without leaving a heat affected zone.
