The lifespan of the wheel on a manual tile cutter can vary depending on several factors, such as the quality of the wheel, the frequency of use, the type of ceramic being cut, and the skill of the operator. Generally, the wheels are durable and can last from several months to even years, provided they are well maintained and used correctly.
However, it is important to note that wheels wear down over time due to constant friction with the ceramic and may lose their sharpness. A worn wheel can make it difficult to achieve clean, precise cuts, which may affect the quality of the work.
To prolong the life of the wheel, it is recommended to follow these practices:
When working with different types of ceramic, such as porcelain tiles or glazed ceramic, it is important to take certain precautions to achieve the best results using a manual tile cutter. Here are some recommendations:
Hardness and fragility: Porcelain is generally harder and more fragile than other types of ceramic, which may require specific cutting tools and techniques. It is important to use a manual cutter designed for porcelain and apply appropriate pressure during cutting to avoid chipping or breaking.
Cutting speed: When working with glazed ceramic, it is recommended to adjust the cutting speed to prevent damage or chipping of the glaze. You can reduce the cutter’s feed rate or use gentler, controlled cutting techniques.
Appropriate wheel: Use a wheel suitable for the type of ceramic you are cutting. Some wheels are designed specifically for hard ceramic or porcelain, while others are better suited for soft or glazed ceramic. Check the manufacturer’s specifications and use the recommended wheel.
Cutting technique: Adjust your cutting technique according to the type of ceramic. For example, when cutting porcelain tiles, it is advisable to make a shallow scoring cut before the full cut. This helps reduce pressure on the ceramic and minimises the risk of breakage.
Use of accessories: Consider using additional accessories, such as tile clamps or spacers, to make the cutting process easier and ensure more precise results.
Always follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for the cutter and use personal protective equipment, such as safety glasses and gloves, when working with ceramic. Practising on scrap tiles before cutting for an important project will help you master the technique and achieve better results.
