Description
Precision Manual Diamond Core Saws
Our Manual Diamond Core Saws are Australian-made machines with a long-standing history of durability across global mine and exploration sites. Unlike mass-produced brick saws, these units are purpose-built for the continuous, high-torque demands of cutting geological core for hours a day. Whether you are working in a remote jungle camp or a high-volume core shed, these saws provide the accuracy and reliability needed when an automatic solution isn’t required.
Engineered for the Core Shed
Every component is designed to maximize stability, safety, and user comfort:
- Heavy-Duty Construction: Built with a 3mm laser-cut profile frame for superior stability. The cutting deck trolley features heavy-duty aluminium tilt-lock wheels for an accurate, jitter-free cut.
- Precision Control: Features spring-loaded cutting head actioned by a foot pedal or handle, allowing for shock-free cutting and excellent pressure control. Crank-controlled depth adjustment ensures straight-through accuracy.
- Operator Safety: Includes a fully protected blade support shaft to shield bearings and users, alongside integrated water return channels to keep the work area dry and clean.
- Versatile Power: Available in Single Phase (240V), 3-Phase, or Honda/Robin Petrol engine configurations to suit site infrastructure.
