Tile cutting disc is a specialized abrasive wheel designed for cutting hard materials like ceramic, porcelain, stone, or glass tiles. These discs are commonly used with angle grinders, tile cutters, or other power tools for precise and efficient cutting.
Types of Tile Cutting Discs
Diamond Tile Cutting Discs
Segmented Rim: Best for dry cutting (e.g., porcelain & ceramic tiles).
Continuous Rim: Smooth, clean cuts (ideal for wet cutting or delicate materials like glass tiles).
Turbo Rim: Faster cutting with added speed and durability.
Abrasive Tile Cutting Discs
Made from silicon carbide or aluminum oxide.
Cheaper but wear out faster than diamond discs.
Best for occasional use on softer tiles.
Choosing the Right Disc
Material: Diamond discs last longer and cut harder tiles (porcelain, stone).
Wet vs. Dry Cutting: Continuous rim works well with water cooling; segmented is for dry cuts.
Size: Common sizes are 4.5-inch (angle grinders) or 7-inch for larger cuts.
Safety Tips
✔ Use safety goggles & gloves to protect from debris.
✔ Secure the tile properly before cutting.
✔ For dust control, use a wet saw or dust extraction.
✔ Avoid forcing the disc—let the tool do the work.
