Tile Cutter RUBI TZ-1300 Cutting Length 13 cm Cutting Thickness 2.1 cm

RUBI TZ manual tile cutters combine high breaking power and reinforced construction to cut large-format ceramic tiles. The TZ series uses modern materials and an exclusive patented breaker mechanism that delivers up to 1500 kg of breaking force, enabling one-handed operation for many cuts and improving handling of large pieces. The extruded aluminium guide geometry and patented head guidance ensure smooth, accurate scoring while reducing forces during cutting. A robust steel frame increases bending resistance and overall strength, and the cutter is compatible with RUBI PLUS scoring wheels; it is supplied with an 8 mm scoring wheel and a 22 mm Plus Extreme wheel.

Advantages

The TZ cutter provides very high breaking power and a patented breaker that facilitates one-handed breaking of tiles, reducing operator effort on large-format pieces. Its guide system and extruded aluminium rails grant a consistent, precise score even under increased load. The reinforced steel frame offers exceptional rigidity and bending resistance compared with standard manual tile cutters. Additional features for accuracy and productivity include a swivel square with removable ends, a 30 cm lateral stop for repetitive cuts, folding aluminium tables, wheels, carrying handles and a reinforced textile transport bag.

Suitable for

• Cutting large-format ceramic and porcelain tiles (straight cuts up to 155 cm, diagonal up to 110×110 cm depending on model)
• Work requiring high breaking force and cutting up to 21 mm thickness
• On-site tiling where portability and quick set-up are needed
• Repetitive straight and angled cuts using the lateral stop and swivel square

Key specifications

• Maximum cutting thickness: 21 mm
• Compatibility with RUBI PLUS scoring wheels; supplied with 8 mm and 22 mm wheels
• Guide construction: extruded aluminium geometry for smooth scoring
• Frame: reinforced steel for high bending resistance
• Accessories: swivel square with removable ends, 30 cm patented lateral stop, folding aluminium tables, wheels, carrying handles, reinforced textile transport bag

How to use

Place the tile on the cutter bed and align it against the lateral stop or swivel square for the desired cut. Score the tile once along the full length using the scoring wheel while keeping steady, even pressure to create a consistent groove. After scoring, apply the breaker mechanism to separate the tile — the patented breaker provides high force to snap tiles cleanly, often allowing one-handed operation. For angled or repetitive cuts, position the swivel square and use the lateral stop as a reference. Adjust the working position and support elements according to tile thickness and format.

Usage recommendations

Use the appropriate RUBI PLUS scoring wheel for the tile material and thickness, check wheel condition regularly, and secure large-format tiles with the folding tables and handles during transport. For thick or very large tiles, make sure supports are aligned and perform scored grooves with steady motion to ensure a clean break.
