Nevertheless, there are special tools you can use to speed up the process. 

Keep reading to find out how you can cut porcelain tiles efficiently and effectively.

Methods On How To Cut Porcelain Tiles

Wet-Cutting

You need to cool down the blade with water with this technique. Doing so will eliminate your worries about the high temperatures caused by the blade's friction against the cut tiles. That means you can work continuously without the need to wait for your tool to cool down. The blades will also last longer.

Dry-Cutting

It is necessary to use a highly durable blade for this method. Nonetheless, even if you buy the most expensive blades out there, you cannot cut continuously. You will need to take a break from cutting your pavers frequently. Remember to make sure your equipment has cooled down completely before working again to prevent damaging it or damaging the Porcea Stone outdoor porcelain paver.

Wet Cut Table Saw

When it comes to cutting porcelain pavers, you can rely on a wet-cut table saw for precision. It also allows you to cut your tiles to the exact measurement you want. On top of that, you will be able to achieve straight and smooth edges. The recommended ones for cutting outdoor porcelain are those with adjustable blades. You'll be able to cut more accurately by feeding your tiles into the blade slowly.

Other methods may be more suitable for your landscape project. However, if you're working on a bulk project and want extreme accuracy, it is wise to invest in a wet saw.

Continuous Cutting Blade

Cutting the edges of porcelain tiles at a 45-degree angle is demanding. However, this will ensure you match the tiles perfectly when laying them on corners. The way to go about this is to use an angle grinder with a continuous cutting blade. It will significantly reduce the risk of damaging your Porcea Stone porcelain paver.

A continuous diamond blade has a softer bond and a solid continuous edge. It can cut through porcelain tiles without chipping them. Most of these blades are suitable for wet-cutting methods with a water-feed system. Typically, the size of continuous diamond blades ranges from 4 to 14 inches. Meanwhile, some have a slot that helps reduce heat when cutting to prolong the blade's life. There are many blades designed specifically for use on Porcea Stone products, if you have any questions, contact our team of experts anytime for a recommended blade.

Hand Grinder for Cuts and Curves

Our collection of porcelain tiles is a beautiful option for your tiling projects. While cutting them straight is easy using a wet saw, you need specific techniques when cutting holes and curves.

A hand grinder is particularly helpful when cutting curves. One such scenario is when you're installing tiles around pipes. Using the tool is simple. And once you have mastered it, you'll be able to cut clean circles in no time.

Other Tools for Cutting Porcelain Tiles

Manual Cutter

The cheapest option you have for cutting Porcea Stone tiles is a manual cutter. It will take time to master the tool. Still, you will be able to finish the job efficiently. These sometimes are not very effective with cutting Porcea Stone which is 2 cm and 3 cm in thickness, and are usually designed for under 1 cm thick tiles.

Oscillating Tool

The more affordable alternative to a tile nipper, you can use an oscillating tool to shape and trim porcelain tiles. Aside from this, you will be able to see and easily direct its blade where you want to cut, allowing for accuracy. You can also use it to make holes or curve cuts in the center of the paver.

Slim System Cutter

A slim system cutter is ideal for cutting our large-format porcelain tiles. It is possible to use a manual cutter, but you may see yourself struggling with it. The manual cutting system consists of suction cups, breaking pliers, a scoring wheel roller guide, and aluminum guides. The suction cups will make sure the guide is fixed in place to the porcelain tile. 

Waterjet Cutter

Waterjet cutters are ingenious tools. You can cut quicker, more efficiently, and without any chipping. These are usually industrial tile cutters, but you can find home waterjets available. However, they are expensive and take skill to operate. Likewise, it will be more effective if a professional operates it.

Many times there are variances in grades and quality when it comes to equipment (especially blades). As a leading manufacturer of outdoor porcelain tiles, Porcea Stone aims to help guide and inform customers to the best of our knowledge. We do not stand behind any specific method of cutting our products on site.
