Real-World Safety in Action
Spitznas tools are relied on in high-risk oil and gas operations from the North Sea to global LNG plants. Their cold-cutting technology, particularly in sabre and chain saws, reduces downtime and eliminates the need for hot work permits. This enables faster approvals and safer interventions during maintenance or shutdowns.
FAQs About Spitznas Tools in Oil and Gas
Are Spitznas tools certified for ATEX zones?
Yes. Most Spitznas pneumatic and hydraulic tools are certified for ATEX Zone 1 and Zone 2 gas environments.
Why are pneumatic tools preferred in explosive areas?
They remove the risk of electrical sparks, making them safe for use in gas-prone or confined spaces.
Can Spitznas tools be used underwater?
Yes. Some saws, such as the pneumatic chain saw, are designed for subsea use.
What is cold-cutting and why is it important?
Cold-cutting means no heat or sparks are generated during cutting, which removes the need for hot work permits in many applications.
Spitznas tools are ATEX-certified for use in oil and gas environments. With pneumatic and hydraulic models, they provide spark-free cutting, grinding and fastening across offshore and onshore operations.
