How to cut 10mm stoneware? Is a cheap wet saw the way to go? - TilersForums.com

[t0ma5]

Hi Guys,

I need your help. I just bought my first apartment and I plan to tile my bathroom. I selected the tiles based on how they looked. I found out later that its 10mm stoneware and hard to cut. I plan to buy a cheap wet tile saw and install the tiles on the floor and the wall. I need to cut about 40m.

What would you recommend please?

Thinking of: Rubi ND-180-BL SMART or Güde GF180 or something similiar
Tiles: RAKO sandstone-plus pls google, unable to enter link

Thank you

Hi and welcome....if the ND 180 is as good as my ND 200 then that would be my choice.

Thank you. Im not sure Price diff between 180 smart and ND200 is 450 gbp...

IMO there are better budget cutters out there for bigger tiles. Can you get a vitrex or a norton?

Hmm, its bit over budget, but I can get the Norton CLIPPER TT 200 EM (125gbp). I think it's more reasonable to get the clipper. Vitrex inst available in my country. Thanks!

Its not about the cutter its about the blade,, Ideally try to get a Macrist blade on a half decent wet cutter. Erbaur from Screwfix is good. Make sure the bore sizes match though. You will have to get the blade first, then see if it works in the cutter. I think they are 25mm bore.
