Diamond Products – a leading specialist in the manufacture, assembly and sale of diamond tools and equipment for industrial applications – has introduced a new lightweight floor saw designed specifically for small contractors.
Diamond Products director Darryl Gray notes that the DP 13 HP-400 concrete saw is more competitively priced than similar competitor products, while maintaining the highest standards of quality. “The machine can be fitted with blades as large as 400 mm, thereby ensuring respectable cutting depths, and is ideally suited for repairing pot holes and cutting neat curbs or trenches across roads for pipe laying.”
Gray highlights the fact that the DP 13 HP-400 concrete saw is powered by a 13hp Honda engine, thereby providing customers with further peace of mind with regards to reliability and parts availability. “The simplicity of the machine is another major advantage to smaller contractors, as it has a minimal amount of moving parts, and can be easily loaded onto the back of a bakkie,” he adds.
DP 13 HP-400 concrete saw is completely stand alone and even houses its own water tank to keep the blade cool in rural conditions where water supply is difficult to come by. Gray continues: “This new floor saw fits in perfectly with Diamond Products MAX range of cutting blades, which offer increased value-for-money, due to the fact that it comes standard with a 14 mm diamond segment, as opposed to the industry standard of 10 mm.”
According to Gray, a super-rigid box frame ensures straight cuts while resisting warping and vibration, which ultimately prolongs the life of the saw and the blade. “Additional features of the DP 13 HP-400 concrete saw include; ergonomically designed height adjustable handles and easy crank for raising and lowering cutting depth, in addition to a hinged front lift-up blade, which is designed to provide easy replacement,” he concludes.
