GQ45 Bar Cutting Machine

The GQ45 is the most popular bar cutting machine for residential and mid-size commercial construction in India. It handles TMT bars up to 32mm diameter, which covers the vast majority of construction applications — from 8mm stirrups to 25mm and 32mm main bars used in columns and beams.

GQ45 is ideal for:

  • Residential buildings (G+4 to G+15)
  • Small to mid-size commercial projects
  • Rebar fabrication yards
  • Contractors who primarily use 8mm to 40mm bars

GQ45 Spare Parts Available:

  • GQ45 Bar Cutting Machine Blade
  • GQ45 Bar Cutting Machine Clutch Plate
  • GQ45 Bar Cutting Machine Supporting Plate

GQ50 Bar Cutting Machine

The GQ50 is the heavy-duty version, designed for cutting TMT bars up to 40mm. It's used for large commercial complexes, infrastructure projects, bridges, and industrial construction where thicker bars (36mm and 40mm) are common.

GQ50 is ideal for:

  • High-rise commercial and residential buildings
  • Bridges and infrastructure projects
  • Large rebar fabrication yards with high volume
  • Industrial construction

GQ50 Spare Parts Available:

  • GQ50 Bar Cutting Machine Blade
  • GQ50 Bar Cutting Machine Clutch Plate
  • GQ50 Bar Cutting Machine Supporting Plate

Which Should You Choose?

Choose GQ45 if: Your projects primarily use bars up to 32 mm, you want a cost-effective solution, and you're doing residential or mid-size work.

Choose GQ50 if: You regularly cut 32 mm or 40 mm bars, work on large commercial or infrastructure projects, or run a high-volume rebar fabrication yard.

Pro Tip: Stock Up on Spare Parts

Whichever model you choose, always keep a spare blade, clutch plate, and supporting plate on hand. These are the most commonly replaced parts and a breakdown mid-project can cost far more than the spare part itself. Jamshedji Constro Equip stocks all GQ45 and GQ50 spare parts and can courier them the same day from Pune.
