Abstract
A blade housing includes: a rotary blade and an opening, in which the blade housing is configured to be affixed to a blade housing connector, and in which when a motor rotates the blade housing connector, the rotary blade rotates to cut a post-tension (PT) tendon tail inside a stressing pocket, in which the blade housing is sized to fit within the stressing pocket, in which the opening of the blade housing is sized to allow the PT tendon tail to be extended through the blade housing.

A blade housing, comprising:
- a rotary blade and an opening,
- wherein the blade housing is configured to be affixed to a blade housing connector, and
- wherein when a motor rotates the blade housing connector, the rotary blade rotates to cut a post-tension (PT) tendon tail inside a stressing pocket, wherein the blade housing is sized to fit within the stressing pocket, wherein the opening of the blade housing is sized to allow the PT tendon tail to be extended through the blade housing.
A post-tension (PT) tendon tail cutting tool, comprising:
- a blade housing, wherein the blade housing comprises a rotary blade and an opening;
- a blade housing connector, wherein the blade housing is affixed to the blade housing connector, wherein the blade housing is sized to fit within the stressing pocket, wherein the opening of the blade housing is sized to not allow a PT tendon tail to be extended through the blade housing;
- and
- a motor, wherein when the motor rotates the blade housing connector, the rotary blade rotates to cut the PT tendon tail inside a stressing pocket.
A post-tension (PT) tendon tail cutting tool, comprising:
- a blade housing, wherein the blade housing comprises a rotary blade and an opening;
- a blade housing connector, wherein the blade housing connector comprises a second opening, wherein the blade housing is affixed to the blade housing connector;
- and
- a motor, wherein when the motor rotates the blade housing connector, the rotary blade rotates to cut a PT tendon tail inside a stressing pocket, wherein the blade housing is sized to fit within the stressing pocket, wherein the opening of the blade housing is sized to allow the PT tendon tail to be extended through the blade housing, wherein the second opening of the blade housing connector is sized to allow the PT tendon tail to be extended through the blade housing connector.
