CS Unitec
CS Unitec's PowerGrit air chain saw is designed for utility, municipal, construction and industrial pipe-cutting applications. The saw allows the user to cut from one position unlike abrasive cut-off saws that require the operator to maneuver the saw 360 degrees around the pipe. Special patented diamond segments grind rather than tear the material, which reduces vibration and eliminates kickback for a precise, clean cut in less time. The PowerGrit air chain saw has a cutting capacity of up to 20 inches in diameter.

Husqvarna
Husqvarna's new CS 10 electric wire saw, uses components from Husqvarna's WS 440 HF and WS 482 HF electric wall saws to create a flexible saw system for cutting through larger concrete structures. The CS 10 is designed to be easily coupled to the wall saw's operating unit, track and power supply so switching between a wall saw and wire saw is quick and easy. The saw unit can be mounted on either side of the wall saw track and the wire can be rotated in both directions making it more flexible. Wire speed can be varied depending on wire type and the material to be cut for optimal performance.

A center-mounted blade configuration allows the CS8 to center pivot about its own axis to more easily follow random crack patterns.
