Air-Powered Pneumatic Saw and Clamp Assembly Cuts Steel Plates with Ease

The APS-438 Air-Powered Saw and Quick-Clamp lets workers take the saw to the steel plate rather than transporting the plate to a large table saw and can produce square cuts with no HAZ.

ESCO Tool’s (Holliston, Massachusetts) pneumatic saw and quick-clamp assembly that lets users cut steel plate up to 2 in thick and 15 ft wide anywhere there is a 90 psi compressed air supply is available.

The APS-438 Air-Powered Saw and Quick-Clamp lets workers take the saw to the steel plate rather than transporting the plate to a large table saw and can produce square cuts with no HAZ. Featuring a 2 in W steel track with two wedge-style clamps for attaching to the plate, the pneumatic saw mounts on a bracket that glides along the track using four V-grooved steel wheels.

Providing a cut line indicator gauge to simplify setup and alignment, the Quick-Clamp’s track comes in 5 to 15 ft sections and ESCO’s APS-438 Air-Powered Saw is powered by a 3 HP motor. Designed for maximum rigidity, it square-cuts steel plate up to 2 in thick using fiberglass reinforced blades and is also ideally suited for cutting boiler tube panels up to 4 in thick.

ESCO’s APS-438 Air-Powered Saw and Quick-Clamp sell for $5,795.00 (list) and are available for rent in the continental USA.
