Why use Hydraulic Tools over Pneumatic or Electric?
Posted by Natasha Kidd on
People often ask, why would you use hydraulic tools over pneumatic, gas or electric? Professionals turn to hydraulic tools when they need to get a job done. Nothing matches the performance of hydraulic tools to cut through rock & concrete, drive posts or spikes, or pump a flooded culvert. Because their energy is derived from compressed oil, hydraulic tools can pack a big punch in a little package. Their inherent efficiency means they’re friendlier to the environment than comparable air or gas tools. And because they’re self-lubricating, they last several times longer. Today we offer dozens of tools that...
Diamond Chainsaw vs Demolition Saw: Which is Better?
Posted by Natasha Kidd on
When your crew cuts into concrete, pipes, bollards, and other tough materials, you want them to have the best equipment available. Not only do you want them to get the job done right in the shortest time, but you want them to stay safe on the job. Which tool do you choose—a diamond chainsaw or a demolition saw? Here’s the lowdown on this debate: Demo Saws: Tradition, Tradition Image courtesy of Pixabay Demolition saws have been the traditional tools workers have used to cut through the tough jobs. Yet they do have their drawbacks. When it comes to deep...

Pinnacle Saw Chain Segment Ultra Saw Chain Segment What is SealPro™? SealPro™ is a breakthrough development in diamond chain technology. It dramatically reduces chain wear of cutting concrete, extending chain chassis life by up to 50% or more. SealPro™ technology also simplifies water pressure requirements and reduces the frequency of chain tensioning adjustments on concrete chainsaws. How it Works SealPro™ technology utilises a patented new chain chassis design that seals out the abrasive contaminants found in the concrete cutting environment. The unique 0-ring design seals the rivet-joints of the chain, keeping abrasive materials out and lubrication in. Advantages Diamond...
Hydraulics vs Pneumatic

HYDRAULIC PNEUMATIC Contamination Risks Risk of hydraulic oil leaks from faulty valves, seals or burst hoses. Hydraulic tools don’t produce exhaust and their power sources can be stationed remotely. A very clean system, suitable for food manufacturing processes and other processes which require no risk of contamination. However, they can atomize small droplets of lubricating oil into the surrounding atmosphere. Movement of Cylinders Hydraulic cylinders move more slowly as hydraulic oil is a viscous substance and requires more energy to move. Pneumatics offer rapid movement of cylinders and have the great advantage of availability in very small sizes....
