ESCO APS-438 Boiler Tube Panel Saw Cuts Square in Any Position


HOLLISTON, MA--(Marketwired - Apr 28, 2015) - ESCO Tool has introduced an air-powered saw that can be used in any position to produce perfectly square cuts on water wall boiler tube panels made from highly alloyed tube up to 4-1/2" O.D.

The ESCO APS-438 Air-Powered Saw features a proprietary abrasive blade that can rapidly cut all types of boiler tube alloys including stainless steels and Inconel® with ±1/16" accuracy and no HAZ (heat affected zone). Capable of cutting in any position, the saw glides effortlessly along the EscoTrack® system which attaches simply to boiler tube panels using two weld tabs.

Featuring a 3HP motor, the ESCO APS-438 Air-Powered Saw has an ergonomic design and mounts on the 5 ft. steel EscoTrack® system by a bracket with four grooved steel wheels that takes the weight off of the operator. It uses only 80 CFM 90 psi shop air and has a safety relief valve to prevent running at excessive speeds. Blades come in 10" and 12" dia. sizes.

The ESCO APS-438 Air-Powered Saw is priced from $5,729.00 and is also available for rent.
