The AMKUS Heavy Rescue Long Blade Cutter is the long-blade counterpart to AMKUS’s Heavy Rescue Short Blade Cutter, sharing the same DeWalt 60V FLEXVOLT battery platform and drivetrain used across the Heavy Rescue Series. AMKUS markets it as carrying the largest motor in its class for fast cut cycles and a lightning-fast open-close rate.
- Battery platform: DeWalt 60V FLEXVOLT
- Construction: carbon-fiber and titanium components for a reduced weight-to-strength ratio
- Series certification: UL certified to NFPA 1960, made and assembled in the USA
The long-blade design is intended to give crews a larger cutter opening than the short-blade version, useful for cutting wider structural members such as pillars and rocker panels where reach into the material matters alongside cut speed. It is designed to complement the Short Blade Cutter on a rescue apparatus rather than replace it.
