Hydra-Flex Ripsaw Rotating Turbo Hydro Excavation Nozzle
The Ripsaw is Hydra-Flex’s purpose-built rotating nozzle for the hydro excavation industry. Engineered to dig faster, it’s the go-to nozzle for potholing, daylighting, debris removal, and piling hole applications. Its rugged construction and non-conductive coating make it safe and reliable even in the most demanding underground environments.
Why Choose the Ripsaw?
