Ventmaster Saws
VentMaster® Fire rescue saws deliver the absolute best in cutting performance, built specifically for the fire service. Using professional-level Husqvarna® powerheads and Tempest exclusive after-market parts, no other saw compares in durability, reliability, cutting performance, and cutting versatility. The Husqvarna® powerhead increases torque over a more extensive RPM range for maximum cutting power. Larger displacement, best fuel economy in its class, higher peak power, 20% more torque, and even better ergonomics for maximum productivity.
Our saws include VentMaster® COBALT Guide Bar with hardened COBALT alloy inserts at the wear points that provide excellent wear, galling resistance (adhesion between sliding surfaces), and impact resistance. The VentMaster® guide bar retains these properties even at very high operating temperatures experienced by firefighters. With the tool-less “KIS-40” Depth Gauge you accurately control cutting depth, protect the operator, and safely speed cut. Fast, simple installation and removal, and eliminates the need to “roll the rafters.”
The Raptor Carbide Chain Explicitly engineered to withstand the rigors of fire and rescue operations. Features an “open dual raker” design to protect the carbide cutters and control the depth of cut.
For Cutoff saws, we have VentMaster® Diamond Cutoff Saw Blades that are some of the toughest in the industry. Our saws also have a full wrap handle, angled ergonomically to allow safe operation in any position and protects the saw from damage.
You deserve the best when it comes to your safety and the safety of your team, so make sure to contact Tempest for more information on our very popular VentMaster® Rescue Saws.
