Spartan Spiral Saw Cutter 152mm:
The 152mm Spartan Spiral Saw Cutter is made out of heavy-duty metal and is ideal for the tougher jobs that require a bit more force. It is designed to work with the O'Brien Root Cutter. The circular blade is deadly enough to slice through those thick stubborn roots that clog most of our drainpipes. This 152mm blade is designed for straight and/or gentle sweeping lines and will not be able to traverse elbows. The saw cutter allows for a pipeline clearance of12mm and its skid assemblies have been designed to be smaller than the cutter blades. This allows the unit to pass through the opening cut by the saw blade.

Feel confident in hacking away at those nasty roots that are clogging up the drainpipes. This is a tough and durable blade that doesn't back down from the challenge. It allows for a 12mm clearance in the pipeline. The skid assemblies are engineered to be smaller than the cutter blades in order to allow the unit to easily pass through the opening cut by the saw blade. The saw cutter attaches to the motor shaft of the root cutter via a woodruff key and bolt and nut arrangement.
Spartan Spiral Saw Cutter 254mm:
The 254mm Spartan Spiral Saw Cutter blade slices through the tougher and stronger roots, resulting in unclogging the drainpipe. This larger saw cutter is durable and made from strong metal. The skid assemblies are smaller than the cutter blade to allow the unit to easily pass through the opening cut by the saw blade. Once inside the pipe, there is a 12mm clearance which assists any debris and/or larger items to be successfully moved through the pipe. The saw cutter stays firmly attached to the O'Brien Root Cutter using a bolt that is secured with a lock washer and nut. This prevent the cutter from pulling off when you withdraw it, giving you peace of mind in a delicate situation.

The 304mm Spiral Saw Cutter is particularly strong and agile, allowing you to search fully into the blocked pipe. It is most useful for extracting the more stubborn roots that are responsible for pipe cracks and breakages. The saw cutter easily attaches onto the O'Brien Root Cu's motor shaft by means of a woodruff key and a bolt and nut arrangement. Once the saw has been inserted, the bolt prevents the cutter from being pulled off when you are withdrawing the unit.
