Husqvarna Concrete Saws Introduction

Husqvarna concrete saws are trusted by contractors, finishers, and construction crews for one reason: consistent, jobsite-proven performance. From small residential slab work to heavy commercial and road projects, Husqvarna offers concrete cutting solutions designed for precision, durability, and operator control.

Concrete cutting is not a one-size-fits-all task. Cutting depth, blade size, engine power, and saw type all play a critical role in achieving clean, accurate cuts without overworking the machine or the operator. Choosing the wrong saw can slow production, increase blade wear, and compromise safety on the jobsite.

This guide breaks down the different types of Husqvarna concrete saws, explains how to match the right saw to your application, and covers best practices for cutting concrete, asphalt, and masonry efficiently. Whether you’re cutting expansion joints, opening slabs, or tackling reinforced concrete, this page will help you make an informed decision before you buy.

Husqvarna Concrete Saws Types

Husqvarna manufactures concrete saws for a wide range of cutting applications. Understanding the main categories is the first step in choosing the right tool for the job.


Types of Husqvarna Concrete Saws

Handheld Cut-Off Saws

Handheld concrete saws are designed for mobility and versatility. They are ideal for vertical cuts, small slab openings, pipe cuts, masonry, and confined spaces where larger equipment cannot reach. These saws are commonly used for repair work, remodeling, and utility access cuts.

Walk-Behind Concrete Saws

Walk-behind saws are built for straight, controlled cuts over long distances. They are commonly used for expansion joints, slab removal, asphalt cutting, and roadwork. Their stability and depth control make them the preferred choice for flatwork and large surface cuts.

Specialty & High-Output Saws

For demanding applications such as deep cutting, reinforced concrete, and heavy commercial work, Husqvarna offers high-output models with larger blade capacities and increased engine power. These saws are designed to handle continuous use under tough jobsite conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

General Questions
What does this Husqvarna concrete saws guide cover?
This guide provides a complete overview of Husqvarna concrete saws, including saw types, cutting depth, blade sizes, power options, and best practices for cutting concrete, asphalt, and masonry. It is designed to help contractors choose the right saw for their specific jobsite needs.
Who should use this Husqvarna concrete saws guide?
This guide is built for concrete contractors, construction crews, masons, landscapers, and professionals who regularly cut concrete or asphalt. It is also useful for first-time buyers who want to understand Husqvarna saw options before purchasing.
Are Husqvarna concrete saws suitable for both residential and commercial projects?
Yes. Husqvarna offers a wide range of concrete saws designed for everything from small residential slab cuts to heavy commercial and roadwork applications. The correct model depends on cutting depth, material type, and frequency of use.
Choosing the Right Saw
What type of Husqvarna concrete saw should I choose?
The right saw depends on your application. Handheld cut-off saws are best for tight spaces, vertical cuts, and repairs, while walk-behind saws are ideal for long, straight cuts on slabs, pavement, and expansion joints.
How do I know what cutting depth I need?
Cutting depth is determined by slab thickness and whether the concrete is reinforced. Most applications require a saw that can cut at least one-quarter deeper than the material thickness to ensure clean, complete cuts.
What blade size should I use with a Husqvarna concrete saw?
Blade size depends on the saw model and required cutting depth. Larger blades allow for deeper cuts but require more power. Always use a blade that is approved for your specific Husqvarna saw model.
Operation & Best Practices
Can Husqvarna concrete saws be used for wet and dry cutting?
Most Husqvarna concrete saws support both wet and dry cutting. Wet cutting reduces dust and extends blade life, while dry cutting may be used for short cuts or when water is not available. Always follow safety and blade manufacturer guidelines.
What materials can Husqvarna concrete saws cut?
Husqvarna concrete saws are designed to cut cured concrete, green concrete, reinforced concrete, asphalt, masonry, and pavers when paired with the correct diamond blade.
How can I extend the life of my concrete saw and blade?
Proper blade selection, correct cutting depth, steady feed pressure, and regular maintenance help extend the life of both the saw and the blade. Avoid forcing the saw and always allow the blade to cut at its designed speed.
