A trolley that mounts on a wrap-around track features an articulating arm which keeps the saw blade on its leading edge to produce square cuts accurate to ±1/16”.

Ideally suited for cutting underground steam lines, the MILLHOG® APS-438 Saw and WrapTrack® system eliminates torch cutting and grinding which can chip and crack the concrete internally because of stress and bending.
