A diamond wire saw for sale should do three things: cut thick reinforced concrete, match your power supply, and keep working on a tough site. YG Machinery offers four high-frequency electric models and two hydraulic models, with power from 8.6 kW to 30 kW and wire storage from 5 m to 15 m. The wire loops around the structure, so you can cut piers, beams, and walls that blade saws cannot reach. This guide compares every model, lists the full specs, and walks you from your first question to a quote.

High-Frequency Electric Wire Saws: Full Specs Compared
High-frequency electric models suit sites with stable power and need no hydraulic pack. Each diamond wire saw for sale in this range follows the specifications below.
| Model | Power output | Voltage/power requirement | Wire storage capacity |
|---|---|---|---|
| YG-103DM | 17 kW (32A) / 9 kW (16A) | 380V~460V (single-phase available) | 11 m |
| YG-EWM22 | 22 kW | 380V / 50Hz | — |
| HF Electric Wire Saw | 30 kW / 40 HP | High-frequency electric | 7 m (net) / >10 m |
| YG-200AM | 4.3 kW × 2 (8.6 kW total) | AC 220V / 50Hz | 6 + 2 m |
The YG-103DM gives you two power settings, 17 kW or 9 kW, so you can adapt to the supply you have. The YG-200AM uses two 4.3 kW motors and runs on 220V, which suits sites without three-phase power. The 30 kW model delivers the most power in the electric range. Wire storage capacity tells you how much wire the machine holds in reserve for longer cuts.
Hydraulic Wire Saws: Which Power Pack Do You Need?
Match the power pack to the saw: use 25 kW or 30 kW for the heavy-duty model, and 15 kW or 18.5 kW for the compact model.
| Model/type | Recommended power pack | Working pressure and flow | Wire storage capacity |
|---|---|---|---|
| Heavy-Duty Hydraulic Wire Saw | 25 kW / 30 kW hydraulic unit | 200–280 bar / 40–60 L/min | 8–15 m |
| Compact Hydraulic Wire Saw | 15 kW / 18.5 kW hydraulic unit | 160–200 bar / 30–45 L/min | 5–8 m |
The heavy-duty saw works at 200–280 bar and 40–60 L/min, which suits large piers and thick structures. The compact saw works at 160–200 bar and 30–45 L/min, which suits smaller cuts and tighter sites. Ask us for the matching hydraulic power pack when you order, so the pressure and flow fit your saw.

Diamond Wire Saw for Sale: Electric or Hydraulic? 3 Questions Decide
Choose electric when you have stable site power. Choose hydraulic when you need long wire storage and heavy cuts. Three questions settle it:
- What power do you have on site? The YG-200AM runs on AC 220V/50Hz. The YG-EWM22 runs on 380V/50Hz. The YG-103DM accepts 380V~460V, and single-phase supply is available.
- How big is the cut? The heavy-duty hydraulic saw stores 8–15 m of wire for large structures. The compact hydraulic saw stores 5–8 m for tighter jobs.
- How will you power the saw? Electric models plug into site power with no separate pack. Hydraulic saws run from a power pack of 15 kW to 30 kW, so you can place the pack away from the cut.

How Does a Diamond Wire Cutting Saw Work? 4 Steps
A diamond wire cutting saw pulls a looped, diamond-bead wire through the material while the drive unit keeps it moving. The cut runs in four steps:
- Drill and thread. Drill holes through or around the structure, then thread the wire through them.
- Loop and tension. Join the wire into a loop around the drive wheel and guide pulleys, then set the tension.
- Cool and cut. Run the saw with water cooling. The diamond beads grind through concrete and rebar.
- Advance and lift. The wire works through the section, and a crane or loader lifts out the cut block.
Because the wire wraps the whole structure, blade diameter no longer limits your cut size. Install guards and keep everyone clear of the wire path during cutting.

What Can a Concrete Wire Saw Cut? 6 Typical Jobs
A concrete wire saw cuts thick reinforced concrete, including the steel bars inside it. Six jobs show where it earns its place:
- Bridge piers, caps, and beams: Cut them into blocks your crane can lift.
- Foundations and machine bases: Remove thick blocks without heavy vibration from breakers.
- Large walls and floor slabs: Section them during building demolition or renovation.
- Tunnels, culverts, and water structures: Cut where access is limited.
- Industrial tanks and silos: Take them apart in controlled sections.
- Chimneys and tall structures: Dismantle them piece by piece.
For smaller openings, pair the wire saw with a core drilling machine. For straight cuts in walls and floors, add a concrete cutting machine or a wall saw machine.
Why Choose a Bridge Demolition Wire Saw? 4 Checks Before You Order
A bridge demolition wire saw needs strong power, enough wire storage, and a plan for lifting heavy blocks. Check four points before you order:
- Power: For large piers and decks, start with the 30 kW high-frequency electric saw or the 25 kW/30 kW heavy-duty hydraulic saw.
- Wire storage: The heavy-duty hydraulic saw stores 8–15 m of wire. The 30 kW electric saw stores more than 10 m.
- Water supply: Plan cooling water and slurry control, especially near rivers and roads.
- Sectioning plan: Cut the structure into blocks your crane can lift, and confirm the load limits with your structural engineer.
Bridge demolition follows strict local safety rules. Share your cutting plan with your engineer and the project owner before you start.

Can a Wire Saw Remove a Bridge Pier Safely? A Project Walkthrough
Yes, when you plan the sections, cooling water, and lifting before the first cut. This application example shows how that plan works on a bridge replacement job.
Application example: Highway bridge pier removal
- Background: A civil contractor must remove the old piers and pier caps of a highway bridge before the new structure goes up. The concrete is thick and heavily reinforced.
- Challenge: Breakers would send heavy vibration into the nearby structure and slow the job. The piers stand close to a river, so the crew also needs tight control over water and slurry. A crane has to lift each piece, so every block must stay within the crane’s load limit.
- Solution: The contractor chooses the Heavy-Duty Hydraulic Wire Saw with a 30 kW hydraulic unit. It works at 200–280 bar and 40–60 L/min, and its 8–15 m wire storage covers the pier’s full perimeter. The power pack sits on firm ground away from the cut, so the operator controls the saw from a safe distance.
- Implementation: The engineer marks the cut lines and block sizes. The crew drills the through-holes, threads the wire, and sets the tension. Cooling water runs through every cut, and a vacuum and a collection tray catch the slurry before it reaches the river. The crane holds each block before the wire finishes the final pass, then lifts it away.
- Result: The pier comes down in controlled sections, with less vibration than hammer demolition and no loose blocks falling toward the water. The crew can inspect each cut line and adjust the plan between sections.
- Takeaway: Plan the block size, wire storage, and power pack first. Then the saw does the cutting, and the crane does the lifting.
