C1-10 Chopsaw
The C1-10 Chopsaw is engineered for demanding subsea cutting operations, delivering safe, controlled, and repeatable performance when cutting pipe and mooring chain under tension. Fitted with Decom’s proven Tungsten Carbide Tipped (TCT) blade, the C1-10 provides fast cutting speeds with a clean, accurate finish, minimising secondary intervention.
Designed for deployment via ROV manipulator or ROV basket, the tool enables effective cutting in confined or hard-to-access subsea locations, where conventional solutions are impractical.
