Diamond Band Saws

Gryphon has been the leader in personal diamond band saws since 1976

C-40 Diamond Band Saw

The C-40 series is the latest bandsaw design from Gryphon Corporation, the company that invented the whole concept of cutting glass and stone with a band saw forty five years ago. This new saw's hallmarks are very fast cutting and the best reliability in the industry. This saw is used extensively for cutting stone, glass and bone. In industry, it has found use in cutting modern hard materials such as used in circuit boards.

The C-40 Tall is a variation on our standard diamond band saw. By raising the motor and using a longer blade, we have increased the clearance to 4.5" as shown (an additional inch of clearance can be achieved by removing the upper guide). This saw was designed primarily in response to artists who wanted to cut bottles and other tall material, but for whom the regular C-40 did not offer enough clearance.

  • Simple construction with few moving parts
  • New High Speed Motor for fastest cutting available. Motor has sealed bearing for improved resistance to corrosion.
  • Direct drive - no belts or pulleys
  • Powerful motor located on top, away from the water. 
  • Huge water reservoir under the work surface
  • One square foot of unobstructed work surface
  • Under table blade guide and blade guide above table.
  • Available with a 115 volt motor or a 230 volt motor for use in other countries.
  • Supplied with 42" stainless steel blade.

C-40 CR Diamond Band Saw
(AquaSaw)

This Corrosion Resistant AquaSaw is designed for use with salt water and is generally used to cut corals. It is based upon the regular C-40, but has improvements designed to reduce maintenance when the saw is used in a corrosive environment, such as with salt water. Youtube has several videos posted by fragging clubs and private owners showing the saw in use (search for "Aquasaw").

  • Simple construction with few moving parts
  • New High Speed Motor for fastest cutting available. Motor has sealed bearing for improved resistance to corrosion.
  • Direct drive - no belts or pulleys
  • Powerful motor located on top, away from the water. A shield is provided around the bottom of the motor to deflect salt water splash.
  • Huge water reservoir under the work surface
  • One square foot of unobstructed work surface
  • Under table blade guide and blade guide above table.
  • Metal parts are stainless steel or hard anodized aluminum.
  • Available with a 115 volt motor or a 230 volt motor for use in other countries.
  • Ships with 37" stainless steel blade, however the saw can use any 37" Gryphon blade.

This Corrosion Resistant AquaSaw is designed for use with salt water and is generally used to cut corals. It is based upon the regular C-40, but has improvements designed to reduce maintenance when the saw is used in a corrosive environment, such as with salt water. The Tall version of this saw adds about two inches of height to the saw, enabling the cutting of larger pieces. It uses a 42" stainless steel blade, and in all other respects is identical to the AquaSaw model C-40 CR.
