HIPPO + Stanley + Tiger Tooth = Perfect Combination! If we hadn't seen it ourselves, we wouldn't believe it either...  The "Tiger Tooth" blade easily cut through 7/8" thick cast iron
The cut that you're looking at in the above picture was made in approximately 1-minute, through 7/8" thick, cast iron pipe. That's right, 1-MINUTE!!! (We even have witnesses to corroborate). We were conducting a demo with Memphis Light, Gas & Water, and the question came up, "Will that saw cut cast iron?" The blade we had on at the time wouldn't, so we put the 14" Tiger Tooth blade (manufactured by U.S. Saws, Inc.) on a Stanley CO25, hydraulic cut-off saw, and the results were impressive, to say the least!

Here's a little info about the "Tiger Tooth" blade, and what it can cut... 14" "Tiger Tooth" Super Grit Diamond Blade The "Tiger Tooth" is a vaccuum-brazed, electroplated, "step segment" blade with oversized diamond-grit & wear-resistant swirled sides. It is designed to cut all materials:And here's some information about the Stanley CO25 Hydraulic Cut-Off Saw Lightweight (approx 25lbs with blade) and powerful, the Stanley CO25 Cutoff Saw (p/n# 205541) is ideal for cutting concrete, masonry, pipe, structural steel beams and guardrail. The CO25 can be used with readily available 14 inch abrasive or wet and dry diamond blades. Available Handle Extension Kit (p/n# 34175) provides for upright operation to meet operator preferenceThe CO25 is a 9-Horsepower tool! Only hydraulic tools can put that kind of power into your hands. No other tool even comes close! And to complete this little story is the powerpack that made it all work: The HIPPO 2042P  HIPPO 2042P on F-250 Ford
The 2042P delivers up to 80cfm of compressed air, 4,000 Watts of electricity, a 200amp DC welder and can operate two (2), fully adjustable, 0–10 GPM hydraulic tool circuits. It can operate any two power sources, simultaneously, for continuous duty operation. The 2042P is a member of a suite of HIPPO multi-power units that simultaneously generate electricity, compressed air and hydraulic power to operate numerous, high-power, handheld tools.  One bad saw-blade!
Why should you care about any of this? We found out from the guys at MLGW that they had recently tried to cut a section of pipe just like this, but it had taken them nearly 6-hours, and they went through 4 (gas powered) saws doing it. The guys were choking and gagging on fumes the entire time, and they had to constantly worry about getting the saw in the water. The ironic thing is that they have hydraulic power, they have a Stanley CO25 cut-off saw, and they had that blade! They didn't have to suffer like that!
