About This Product
BARWALT Manual Cutter for Ceramic, Glass and Mosaic Tile
The BARWALT Manual Tile Cutter is a compact score-and-snap tool for straight and angled cuts in compatible ceramic, glass, and mosaic tile. Its 20" straight-cut capacity and 1/2" maximum thickness suit common installation and remodeling work.
Smooth Scoring with Accurate Positioning
The two-rod rail system guides the cutting head smoothly across the tile, while the adjustable measuring guide helps align straight, repeat, and 45-degree cuts. A 5/8" tungsten carbide wheel creates the score before the tile is snapped.
Manual Cutting Without Wet-Saw Setup
The TC20 operates without electricity or water, making it useful when a wet saw would add unnecessary setup and cleanup. It handles tile up to 20" for straight cuts and 14" × 14" for diagonal cuts.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What materials can the BARWALT TC20 cut?
The TC20 is designed for compatible ceramic, glass, and mosaic tile. It accommodates material up to 1/2" (13 mm) thick for straight and angled score-and-snap cutting.
What are the straight and diagonal cutting capacities?
The cutter accepts tile up to 20" (508 mm) long for straight cuts. For 45-degree diagonal cuts, it handles tile measuring up to 14" × 14" (356 × 356 mm).
How does the TC20 cut tile?
The tungsten carbide wheel scores the tile as the cutting head moves along the two-rod rails. The cutter then applies breaking pressure along the score to separate the tile without a powered blade.
Does the cutter require electricity or water?
No. The TC20 is fully manual and requires neither electricity nor water. This reduces setup and avoids the water handling associated with wet tile saws.
What scoring wheel does the TC20 use?
The cutter uses a durable 5/8" tungsten carbide scoring wheel. It creates the controlled score required before compatible ceramic, glass, or mosaic tile is snapped.
How does the cutter support accurate cuts?
The two-rod rail system guides the scoring head smoothly, while the adjustable measuring guide helps position the tile. Together, these features support accurate straight, repeat, and 45-degree cuts within the rated capacities.
