These tools are versatile and allow you to make various cuts that can be adapted for the job at hand. These tools are perfect for taking on the go as they easily fit in most cars and vans.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Manual Cutters&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rubi.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Manual-Tile-Cutter-Small.png\" alt=\"tiling equipment\" class=\"wp-image-34627\" width=\"325\" height=\"217\"\/><figcaption><em>TX MAX 250<\/em> <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Manual tile cutters are what we\u2019re known for. They\u2019re a staple in every tiler\u2019s kit, but it\u2019s crucial to know which one is <strong>the best tool for the project<\/strong>. Our TX and TZ lines are reliable and allow tilers to work with most tile sizes. Additionally, our <strong>TX-MAX<\/strong> comes with supplementary arms, which allow for cutting <strong>larger format tiles<\/strong>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, if you often work with <strong>large porcelain sheets<\/strong> greater than 300 cm x100 cm, then the use of our <strong>slim cutter plus<\/strong> is highly recommended. This tool is capable of straight edge and free-hand cutting, depending on how you use the scoring carriage (whether you use it mounted to the aluminium guides or without). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The pliers provided with this kit allow for<strong> cutting and separating<\/strong> of sheets up to 10mm. With the use of the <strong>slim separator<\/strong>, this tool can cut sheets that are up to 15mm in thickness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--HubSpot Call-to-Action Code --><span class=\"hs-cta-wrapper\" id=\"hs-cta-wrapper-60493a6a-c923-40aa-9c5d-04559988dcf8\"><span class=\"hs-cta-node hs-cta-60493a6a-c923-40aa-9c5d-04559988dcf8\" id=\"hs-cta-60493a6a-c923-40aa-9c5d-04559988dcf8\"><!--[if lte IE 8]><div id=\"hs-cta-ie-element\"><\/div><![endif]--><a href=\"https:\/\/cta-redirect.hubspot.com\/cta\/redirect\/6786297\/60493a6a-c923-40aa-9c5d-04559988dcf8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"hs-cta-img\" id=\"hs-cta-img-60493a6a-c923-40aa-9c5d-04559988dcf8\" style=\"border-width:0px;\" height=\"191\" width=\"1200\" src=\"https:\/\/no-cache.hubspot.com\/cta\/default\/6786297\/60493a6a-c923-40aa-9c5d-04559988dcf8.png\" alt=\"New call-to-action\"><\/a><\/span><script charset=\"utf-8\" src=\"https:\/\/js.hscta.net\/cta\/current.js\"><\/script><script type=\"text\/javascript\"> hbspt.cta.load(6786297, '60493a6a-c923-40aa-9c5d-04559988dcf8', {\"useNewLoader\":\"true\",\"region\":\"na1\"}); <\/script><\/span><!-- end HubSpot Call-to-Action Code -->\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Large Format Tiles&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Some jobs use large format tiles, such as for flooring. These tiles can be tricky to manoeuvre and cut, which is why we recommend our <strong>TZ line<\/strong>, suitable for tiles up to 21mm thickness. As tile sizes increase, the use of <strong>suction cups<\/strong> as an auxiliary tool is becoming more and more prevalent. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tiles with a rough finish are becoming more popular too, which means the tools used in these jobs have to be more specialised, such as our TZ line.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"RUBI TZ Manual Ceramic Cutter\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/BioXbNk1__U?start=2&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">External Work<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For those that work in <strong>landscaping<\/strong>, you might require more heavy-duty tools that allow you to execute this type of work for your clients.

If you work more with dry drilling, you should consider our <strong>DRYGRES kit; <\/strong>it includes everything you need, including a multi-drill guide.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, Our <strong>EASYGRES drill kit<\/strong> includes electroplated diamond drill bits for <strong>wet cutting<\/strong>. These drill bits are suitable for use with a non-percussive power drill.

Our<strong> DCX-250 Xpert<\/strong> professional cutters are designed for the demanding cutting of <strong>porcelain, ceramic tile, and the occasional natural stone<\/strong>, such as granite or marble.

To facilitate mitring, we recommend an additional set of flanges to increase the blade clamping surface and reduce bending of the blade, elongating its life.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Choosing the right tool for the job at hand is an important task.
