RUGGED MASONRY SAWS FROM FELKER
Complete line of saws, diamond and abrasive blades, diamond core drills and drilling machines for the professional mason.
Felker saws are built to last; rugged construction with heavier castings and welds gives you longer on-the-job life.
The HEAVY-DUTY FELKER ROTO-SET MASONRY SAW has a free moving cutting head to accommodate large masonry or refractory shapes. The open throat design swallows any work piece up to 20" wide.
The FELKER ECONOMATIC MASONRY SAW features a specially designed blade cushion that spring-protects the blade against sudden shocks. Automatically provides correct cutting pressure regardless of material hardness.
The FELKER TOUCHMATIC® MASONRY SAW-for those hard-to-get-at jobs. So light and compact, it goes with you inside the tank or kiln, up on the scaffold. A truly portable saw.
Diamond and abrasive blades, the industry standard preferred by professional masons the world-over, are available in any required specification for any job application.
