Alpha PSC-600 Pneumatic Stone Cutter – 6 in., Grinder-Style, 8,500 RPM
Alpha PSC-600 Pneumatic Stone Cutter – 6 in., Grinder-Style, 8,500 RPM
The Alpha PSC-600 Pneumatic Stone Cutter is a 6 in. pneumatic stone cutter for cutting stone rated to 8,500 RPM. It runs on compressed air rather than mains power, so there is no electric motor to fail in a wet shop.
It needs a compressed air supply — this is not a corded tool. Alpha AIR-008 Rust Inhibitor Oil protects the air motor from the moisture that compressed air and wet stone work both carry, and the Alpha Water Hose, 30 ft. x 1/4 in., is the replacement water line Alpha lists for its wet pneumatic tools.

Who Is This For?

Frequently Asked Questions
What speed does it run?

Does it need an electrical supply?
No. The tool is pneumatic and runs on compressed air.
How do I keep the air motor from rusting?
Alpha supplies AIR-008 Rust Inhibitor Oil for its pneumatic tools. Compressed air carries moisture and wet stone work adds more, so the oil lubricates the motor and inhibits corrosion.
