Intrinsically Safe Cutting Power Our pneumatic band saw packages provide essential cutting capability for offshore maintenance, modifications, and decommissioning work in classified hazardous areas where spark-generating electric tools are prohibited. The air-powered design eliminates electrical ignition sources while delivering consistent cutting power through pipe, structural steel, and equipment components. With the included oiler hose ensuring proper tool lubrication, these saws maintain peak performance across extended operations, providing the clean, precise cuts required for professional-grade pipe modifications, equipment dismantling, and structural alterations without compromising platform safety protocols.
Versatile Cutting Applications From abandoned pipeline sections and corroded handrail removal to equipment skid modifications and structural steel cuts, our pneumatic band saws handle diverse offshore cutting requirements with precision and control. The band saw design produces smooth, square cuts ideal for welding preparation, reducing grinding and fit-up time compared to abrasive cutting methods. Whether sectioning large-diameter pipe for removal, cutting through structural members during platform modifications, or sizing steel components for fabrication work, these portable saws deliver professional results across the full range of offshore metal cutting operations.
Portability & Access Advantage Maneuver easily through congested platform areas, confined spaces, and difficult access locations with lightweight pneumatic cutting tools designed for offshore portability. Unlike heavy hydraulic systems or cumbersome electric saws requiring power cords, these air-powered band saws connect to existing platform compressed air systems through standard quick-connects, providing operational freedom throughout the work area. The compact design allows cutting operations in tight quarters around existing equipment, under pipe racks, and in spaces where larger cutting equipment cannot operate, expanding your crew's capability to complete modifications and repairs efficiently regardless of location constraints.
Reduced Heat & Material Distortion Band saw cutting generates significantly less heat compared to torch cutting or abrasive wheels, preserving material properties and reducing fire hazards during offshore operations. This controlled cutting method minimizes heat-affected zones on adjacent equipment and piping, reduces the risk of igniting residual hydrocarbons or coatings, and produces cleaner cut surfaces requiring less post-cut preparation. The lower heat generation also improves operator comfort during extended cutting operations and reduces the fire watch requirements that add labor costs and complexity to hot work activities on offshore platforms.
Pneumatic Reliability & Maintenance Trust proven air-powered tool technology that thrives in demanding offshore environments. The pneumatic design eliminates concerns about electrical shorts in wet conditions, provides superior power-to-weight ratios compared to electric alternatives, and integrates seamlessly with platform air systems without requiring dedicated power sources or distribution equipment. The included oiler hose maintains proper tool lubrication, extending blade life and ensuring consistent cutting performance throughout your rental period. Backed by our preventive maintenance program and available blade replacements, these band saws deliver the dependable cutting performance your offshore operations demand, supported by our 24/7 technical assistance and commitment to providing well-maintained, inspection-ready equipment.
