Why use the right tools for Porcelain?

Cutting, Shaping, and Removing Porcelain: A True Art Form

Cutting, shaping, and removing a piece of porcelain is nothing short of an art. We often spend countless hours selecting the perfect porcelain piece to complement our décor, but a single wrong cut can ruin the stunning look you’ve envisioned. Choosing the right tools for porcelain is a crucial decision. Precision and proper handling make all the difference when working with this hard material.

Why Porcelain Requires Special Tools

Porcelain is incredibly tough and requires high-speed, abrasive-resistant cutters to avoid chipping or damaging the edges. For this reason, diamond blades are the go-to choice. These blades are crafted from steel and coated with diamond particles, making them exceptionally durable and ideal for achieving precise cuts.

Porcelain Cutting Secrets

For cutting porcelain, not just any blade will do. You need a specialized blade, preferably a continuous rim blade with high diamond content. These blades are designed with a unique metallurgical composition, which only a diamond tools specialist can recommend. For the highest quality blades, be sure to check out our collection on StoneTech Inc., where you’ll find the perfect tools for your needs.

Additionally, the saw machine you use plays a critical role in the precision of your cuts. Always opt for a highly accurate and sturdy porcelain-cutting machine, preferably one that features a double blade system. Machines with these specifications ensure greater control and minimize the risk of damaging the tile.

How to Get Clean, Uniform Cuts

To achieve cleaner and more uniform cuts, we recommend using a wet surface in combination with a saw that has an adjustable diamond-plated blade. This setup helps prevent chipping at the ends. Additionally, manually adjusting the cutting depth according to the manufacturer’s recommendations is essential. A common technique used by professionals is applying a piece of tape along the cutting line, which helps guide the blade along the marked area more accurately.

The Durability of the Right Tools

Unlike standard grinding blades, which can go dull within days, high-quality porcelain blades are long-lasting and can last anywhere from several months to years, depending on how they are used. Research shows that conventional blades often suffer from cracked teeth when working with porcelain, leading to chipping and even discoloration of the tile. Our blades, however, feature X-Teeth, a major advantage that allows them to glide through porcelain effortlessly while offering smooth, flawless cuts.

Versatility and Safety

Our diamond blades are tested for both wet and dry surfaces, making them versatile and user-friendly. For workplace safety, it’s vital to tape any loose electrical wires and keep conductive materials away from wet surfaces.
