How it worksHydraulic power drives a continuous steel wire loop fitted with diamond beads. The beads abrade material steadily, enabling stable, vibration-free cuts in reinforced concrete, piers and underwater piles. Automatic tensioning maintains consistent cutting performance.
Technical features- Stable hydraulic drive
- Long-life diamond beads
- Automatic tension system
- Compatibility with hydraulic wall saws
Key advantages- Operates in narrow, wet or underwater environments
- High cutting speed for large sections
- Low dust generation and reduced noise
- Suitable for bridges, piers, ports and underwater piles
- No impact on surrounding structures (vibration-free)

Q&A (selected)- How thick can it cut? Typically over 1 m in thickness depending on setup.
- Can it work underwater? Yes — designed for wet and underwater cutting.
- Does it affect structural stability? No — cutting is vibration-free and impact-free when used correctly.
- Typical price range: USD 8,000–15,000 for common configurations.
Case study (summary)Port renovation: underwater piles (~2 m diameter). Reported outcomes: ~40% reduction in cutting time, clean cuts without structural damage, and stable long-term operation.
Maintenance and cost considerations- Wire wear is a recurring consumable cost
- Regular hydraulic oil maintenance required
- Proper wheel care and correct tension/speed can extend wire life by ~30%
