Root Cutters & Saws

Dawson Infrastructure Solutions offers a wide assortment of root cutters and saws. Sizes are designed for pipes ranging from 4” to 20”. Along with a wide selection of flat, concave and tapered saw blades, we also offer several different root and grease cutters. The Smart Cutter system combines high-torque with a design that needs less maintenance than your standard cutter, removing roots during use and headaches afterward. The Patriot root and grease cutters offer two root-cutting systems in one, combining the advantages of both ring-type cutters and skid type cutters in one package.






Smart Cutter Root & Grease Cutter

The Smart Cutter system is truly the gold standard of the sewer cleaning industry. It is the industry's ONLY low maintenance, high-torque root cutter. The Smart Cutter gives you the power of a high torque root cutter with the low level of maintenance of a chain cutter. Simply shake out the water, spray in some light weight oil, turn a couple of times, and throw it in your tool box for the next time roots become a problem. No more do you need to keep your high torque cutter soaked in an oil bath. Motor & Thruster assembly only. Full kits available with saw blades and skid assemblies.

Kits includes their respective size Smart Cutter motor and thruster, the 4" ring style skid, the 6" fixed skid (non-roller style), the 8" to 10" adjustable roller skid assembly, the 12" to 15" adjustable roller skid assembly, 4", 6", 8", 10", 12" and 15" saw blades, turning handle, Allen wrench, a bottle of water soluble oil and the toolbox.
