The BN Products-USA, LLC DC-20WH Diamond #6 Rebar Cutter is a heavy-duty hydraulic rebar cutter engineered for portability without sacrificing power - making it an ideal choice for concrete construction, rebar fabrication, and job-site reinforcement work. Developed through continuous refinement since 1972, this electric/hydraulic shear delivers the cutting force contractors need in a compact, carry-case-ready package. Weighing just 25.4 lbs, the DC-20WH is widely recognized as the most popular hydraulic rebar cutter sold in the United States today, prized for its cold-cutting, spark-free performance that keeps workers and surrounding materials safe.

Key Features

• Cuts rebar up to #6 (20mm, 3/4 in.) diameter at Grade 60 using 15 tons of hydraulic pressure - handles the most common structural rebar sizes found on commercial and residential job sites without stalling or overheating.
• Each cut is completed in approximately 3 seconds and is free of sparks and heat - enables fast, safe operation near flammable materials, coated rebar, and finished concrete where torch cutting or abrasive saws would pose a hazard.
• Spark-free, cold-cutting hydraulic shear action - unlike grinders, abrasive blades, or cutting torches, this method produces clean, consistent cuts that require no deburring and do not alter the metallurgy of the rebar.
• Rotating cutting blocks extend blade life and eliminate the ongoing cost of replacement blades - a single set of blocks can be rotated for continued cutting performance, reducing long-term tooling expense on high-volume rebar jobs.
• Standard safety relief valve for piston retraction and an integrated cutting guard - built-in protective features help prevent accidental overextension and protect the operator during every cut.
• Versatile cutting capability beyond rebar - the DC-20WH can also cut chains, bolts, and metal rod, adding utility on general construction and demolition sites where multiple cutting tasks arise.
• Continuous development since 1972 resulting in higher output, lower weight, and proven toughness - decades of refinement translate to a tool that performs reliably in demanding field conditions cycle after cycle.
• Ships complete with a carry case, hydraulic oil, and a maintenance tool kit - ready to work out of the box with no additional accessories required to begin cutting on-site.

Why This Product

• For crews that need rebar cutting capability anywhere on the job site, the DC-20WH delivers 15 tons of hydraulic shearing force in a 25.4 lb portable package - eliminating the need to run rebar back to a stationary saw or bender station.
• Cold-cutting, spark-free shear action makes this the right choice for applications where saws, abrasive wheels, and cutting torches create fire risk, airborne debris, or unacceptable noise - including indoor pours and confined spaces.
• The rotating cutting block design means fewer blade replacements and lower per-cut cost over time - particularly valuable on large concrete reinforcement projects where hundreds or thousands of cuts are made per day.
• As the most popular hydraulic rebar cutter in the U.S. market, with a design lineage going back to 1972, the DC-20WH has a well-established track record of durability and parts availability, including separately available tune-up kits for long-term serviceability.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the maximum rebar size the DC-20WH can cut?

The DC-20WH is rated to cut rebar up to #6 (20mm / 3/4 in.) diameter at Grade 60. It applies 15 tons of hydraulic pressure to complete each cut cleanly in approximately 3 seconds. It is not designed for rebar sizes larger than #6.

Is the DC-20WH safe to use indoors or near flammable materials?

Yes. The DC-20WH is a cold-cutting hydraulic shear that produces no sparks and generates no heat during the cutting process. This makes it well suited for indoor pours, enclosed job sites, and any environment where spark-producing tools such as grinders, abrasive saws, or cutting torches would be a fire or safety hazard.

Can the DC-20WH cut materials other than rebar?

Yes. While the DC-20WH is specifically designed and optimized for cutting rebar, it can also be used to cut chains, bolts, and metal rod, adding versatility for general construction and site work applications.

Are tune-up kits or replacement parts available for the DC-20WH?

Yes. Tune-up kits are available and sold separately. The cutting blocks on the DC-20WH can also be rotated to extend their service life, helping reduce the frequency of blade-related maintenance. The tool ships with a maintenance tool kit included in the carry case to support routine upkeep in the field.
