BT Concrete Saw | 18 In. | GX390 | Screw Feed Blade Adjustment BTCS501

The BTCS501 concrete saw provides precise and comfortable cutting, with minimal maintenance. Driven by a 13 HP Honda GX390 engine, this saw has excellent cutting power and rock-solid reliability. This saw features a sealed blade shaft system, which allows for 200 maintenance-free hours of operation without daily greasing of bearings. The blade shaft mounting system is also designed to reduce vibration from the engine, increasing comfort and optimizing performance. The adjustable handles provide a comfortable position near the cutting side, making alignment easier for straighter cuts. For added stability, the right rear wheel can be extended to ensure precision. For dust management, the onboard water tank has a 15 L capacity to keep dust contained while cutting.

How The BT Concrete Saw 18" Compares To Other Concrete Saw Options

Concrete contractors evaluating walk-behind saws for deeper cuts usually face this question: should I get the smaller 14" BT saw with a GX270 engine, this larger 18" model with a GX390 engine, or a larger professional 20" floor saw?

Here's the honest comparison:

Why The BT Concrete Saw 18" Is Worth The Investment

This isn't just a walk-behind concrete saw, it's built with a powerful 13 HP Honda GX390 engine and a spring assisted screw feed system, giving concrete contractors deeper cutting capability and easier blade depth control than the smaller 14" model.

The BTCS501 specifically addresses the needs of concrete contractors who need to cut deeper joints and thicker slabs, up to 7.2 in. of cutting depth, without stepping up to a full commercial 20" floor saw.

Deeper Cuts, Easier Adjustment. The spring assisted screw feed makes it easy to adjust the blade in and out of the cut with precision, while the larger 18 in. blade capacity and 7.2 in. maximum cutting depth handle thicker slabs than the smaller 14" model can reach.

Built For Precise, Comfortable Cutting

The engine and blade shaft mounting system are designed to reduce vibration and optimize cutting performance

Adjustable handles provide a comfortable position near the cutting side, making alignment easier for straighter cuts

A clear depth indicator allows the operator to accurately make cutting depth adjustments

Engineered For Job Site Stability And Cleanliness

The extendable right rear wheel enhances stability for straighter cuts

Accepts up to 18 in. diameter blades for a 7.2 in. maximum cutting depth

The 18 L water tank reduces dust while cutting, keeping the job site cleaner and safer

Real Savings

200 maintenance-free hours reduce the labor time spent on daily bearing greasing compared to basic saws

The spring assisted screw feed reduces operator fatigue when making frequent depth adjustments during a cut

A foldable handle makes the saw easy to store and transport, reducing the need for larger storage or transport equipment

Free shipping and no sales tax through Summit Forge Supply keeps the total cost down compared to buying elsewhere and paying tax and freight separately

The Bottom Line Concrete contractors who need to cut deeper joints and thicker slabs can't afford a saw that maxes out at a shallow cutting depth. The BT Concrete Saw 18" is built with a powerful 13 HP Honda engine, a spring assisted screw feed system, and a sealed maintenance-free blade shaft, so it delivers deeper, more precise cuts than the smaller model in the line. For anyone cutting thicker slabs or deeper joints as a regular part of the work, this is the saw built to handle it.
