Concrete Cutting

Concrete Cutting

It’s ok to take the occasional gamble, as long as it’s something like switching from regular to decaf coffee. But if you cut concrete for a living, you know rolling the dice on your equipment is not a trade-off you should make. You’re working for every Euro and so should your tools. ICS designs and manufactures all concrete cutting equipment with high-quality, top-of-the-line materials, because they know, your tools shouldn’t stop working until you do.

Applications

Egress Window without over-cutting

Diamond Chain Technology™ allows remodelers to easily add windows and egress windows to additions and basement remodels. Because there are no overcuts, water proofing issues around the windows are reduced.

1. Step

Layout and score cut the entire opening to 2.5 cm deep – 6 minutes

2. Step

Cut the bottom first to avoid pinching the bar in cut. Plunge saw into cut and cut to the corners on each side – 12 minutes

3. Step

Use wedges on the bottom of the cut to keep the core in place and avoid cracking while cutting the top – 12 minutes

4. The Result

Concrete Pipe Tap

While ICS® concrete power cutters won’t cut round circles, they can easily make 8-sided cuts, providing quick, tight fitting joints for concrete pipe taps. With proper technique, gaps of less than 1” (2.5 cm) are easily achievable, requiring very little patchwork. The same job with a cut-off saw takes longer, results in overcuts, and requires the use of potentially damaging percussive tools to finish the work.

1. Step

Carefully score cut all 8 cuts – 3 minutes

2. Step

Plunge straight into all 8 sides in a stitching method working from the center to both ends of each cut – 12 minutes

3. Step

A pipe tap with less than one inch gap installed, no over-cutting or cracking from percussive tools
