Pentek Corner-Cutter - For Dustless Cleanup of Concrete and Steel Surfaces
From Power Tools
The Corner-Cutter is designed to remove lead-based paints, radioactivity and other hazardous contaminants from both steel and concrete surfaces in an environmentally safe manner. Pentek developed the Corner-Cutter to scarify walls, joints, ceilings, stairs, girders, pipes, and other areas which are inaccessible to our MOOSE and SQUIRREL-III surface preparation products.

The Corner-Cutter® operates on the same principle as a pneumatically operated needle scaler. Specially hardened needles operate within an evacuated stainless steel enclosure which prevents the escape of dust, debris and airborne contamination to the environment. Standard shrouds are provided with each unit to allow the cutters to conform to inside corners, outside corners, and flat surfaces. Special shrouds are available to conform to particularly odd geometric shapes, such as door and window frames. The Standard Shroud Set (P/N: X-009) includes 1 each of:
The Corner-Cutter® incorporates unique vacuum flow design features which provide high-efficiency performance in contaminated or clean room environments that require stringent control of loose material. Users will find that the Corner-Cutter® eliminates the need for the respiratory protection from radiological and toxic particulate hazards. It also eliminated the need to erect tents or temporary protection enclosures.
The Corner-Cutter’s lightweight, low reaction forces and infinitely adjustable vacuum enclosure minimize operator fatigue and provide for comfortable operation in any position. The ergonomic design of the operator’s handle provides complete operator control and is equipped with a quick-release-to-off safety feature. A depth adjustment feature controls the cutting of cementitious surfaces.

Dustless Lead Paint Removal & Nuclear Decon Tools for Marine Industry - Mining
When ships, submarines and port facilities exposed to the corrosive marine environment need to be repainted, get to clean steel quickly and safely without any messy cleanup using our shrouded power tools! Old paint is removed and packaged in one step using our powerful VAC-PAC HEPA vacuum and deposited directly into 55-gallon drums, safely sealed and ready for transport and disposal when full. No costly containment is required for hazardous jobs, because dust is captured at the surface, before it’s emitted.
