Cut hydraulic hose up to 5 inches in diameter with 6 layers of wire braid with no burning or deforming using this new hydraulic hose cutting machine, blade and cutting method.
The normal sawing method of lowering an abrasive saw blade onto the hose causes the hose to compress and deform. As the blade cuts the compressed hosed expands against the blade causing friction, heating and burning and much of the debris from the kerf of the blade is deposited into your hose.
New Improved Specialty Saw Method
With the Specialty Saw hydraulic hose saws the hose is positioned across two pins (A) and moved into the blade (C) by a feed foot (B) using handle (B1 shown in operating position) or auxiliary handle (B2 used for better leverage on extremely heavy hose). The feed motion causes the hose to stretch at the point of contact with the blade allowing it to separate as it is cut (see the magnified inset of schematic). This separation allows the hose to pass clear of the saw blade with NO friction, NO heating and NO DEBRIS! A vacuum hose (D) is attached to a vacuum port (hidden) to remove any tiny amount of debris or smoke during cutting.
