Spitznas Sabre Saw for ATEX-Certified Cutting

Built for Hazardous Zones, Trusted Worldwide

A single spark can turn a routine job into a life-threatening incident. That is why industries operating in hazardous environments rely on the Spitznas sabre saw. Whether pneumatic or hydraulic, these saws are engineered for safety, precision and reliable power. Certified to ATEX standards, they are trusted across underground mining, petrochemical maintenance and explosive atmospheres where only spark-free tools will do.

Pneumatic Sabre Saw – Lightweight, Fast and ATEX-Certified

Spitznas pneumatic sabre saws are built for universal industrial use, including work in explosive environments. Operating at 6 bar, they deliver cutting speeds of up to 2,800 strokes per minute with a stroke length of 28 mm, offering both precision and speed in confined or safety-critical zones.

Key features include:

• ATEX certification for safe use in explosive zones (II 2G Ex h IIB T5 Gb)

• Lightweight and ergonomic design for reduced fatigue

• Quick-release tool adapter for efficient blade changes

• Low noise and vibration levels for safer, longer use

• Ideal for cutting wood, chipboard, aluminium and metals (1.5 mm to 5 mm)

Hydraulic Sabre Saw – More Power, More Performance

When the task demands more force, the Spitznas hydraulic sabre saw delivers. Designed for hardest cutting demandsincluding demolition and underwater work, it operates at 90–140 bar and provides higher cutting power with increased drive performance. This makes it ideal for challenging environments where pneumatic tools may not suffice.

Applications include:

• Underwater cutting operations

• High-torque demolition tasks

• Petrochemical maintenance

• Offshore or confined space work

Spitznas Reciprocating Saws – A Broader Range of ATEX Tools

Spitznas also manufactures reciprocating saws in pneumatic, hydraulic and electric variants. Built with the same safety-focused engineering, they are ideal for cutting metal, plastics and composite materials across hazardous or specialist environments.

What is the difference between a sabre saw and a reciprocating saw?

Both terms are often used interchangeably. Sabre saws are a type of reciprocating saw, but typically refer to more compact and lightweight designs ideal for confined spaces or overhead cutting.

Are Spitznas sabre saws ATEX certified?

Yes. Pneumatic sabre saws are certified to ATEX II 2G Ex h IIB T5 Gb standards for use in explosive zones.

Can Spitznas sabre saws be used underwater?

Yes. The hydraulic sabre saw is designed for underwater operation and high-demand tasks, offering strong performance in open hydraulic circuits.
