Tile Saws and Their Types


Tile saws are available in different sizes. Some tile saws can give quicker cuts and can hold larger tiles without problems as compared to others. The larger tile saws have a steel or plastic water tray. Of these the steel trays are more durable while the plastic water trays are lighter in weight and cheaper to replace. Sliding tray saws are by far the most common saws seen on the jobsite. Tile saws use adjustable fences for angled cuts and square cuts. Fence stops are used to get multiple cuts of exactly the same size.





For ceramic or porcelain tiles, you need a water tray in your tile saw. Regular saws cannot handle the heat required to cut these materials, but wet tile saws cool the diamond blade while cutting. Use of wet tile saws gives your tiles a smoother edge. Tile setters use wet tile saws to trim tiles into fashionable patterns apart from trimming to fit the edges of a room. A large capacity water pump is included as standard accessory in most wet cutting tile saws.




Tile saws for cutting large stone slabs have two basic varieties Overhead Rail Saws and Track Saws. A 4 horse power Track Saw is very common sight at job sites and comes with a granite blade, laser guide and roller tables. A robust reinforced steel structure ensuring maximum rigidity and durability







For people who work with small stones, bricks, tiles or blocks precision is crucial to the end result. The stone or tile you cut must fit perfectly, just as the machine and the blade you use must fit your work situation perfectly. For plunge cuts tile saws include a spring that makes press cuts smoother and more comfortable. When buying a tile saw ask if it can make plunge cuts.
