About This Product

RUBI TK Manual Tile Cutters for Large-Format Porcelain

RUBI TK Tile Cutters are professional asymmetrical-monoguide score-and-snap cutters built for intensive ceramic cutting, especially large-format porcelain stoneware. Four models provide straight-cut capacities from 33" to 62", giving contractors a choice for different tile formats while maintaining the strength and control required for demanding residential and commercial projects.

Unobstructed Scoring Visibility with a Rigid Monoguide

TK Manual Tile Cutters position the asymmetrical guide to one side of the cutting line, keeping the scoring wheel and intended path visible throughout the cut. A steel chassis and closed-profile extruded aluminum guide reduce flex, while chromed steel bearing surfaces and radial bearings support smooth, precise carriage movement.

One-Handed PURE POWER Breaking Control

RUBI TK Manual Cutters combine a trigger-and-ratchet mechanism with a mobile multipoint breaker that delivers up to 1,500 kg, or approximately 3,307 lbs., of separating force. The system allows scoring and breaking with one hand, leaving the other available to position and stabilize larger tile.

Accurate Positioning for Angled and Repetitive Cuts

A removable aluminum swivel square uses magnetic and screw fixation to help prevent movement or misalignment. The 12" lateral stop rotates from 45° to 90° for angled and repetitive cuts, while suspended folding tables provide additional support beneath large-format tile during positioning, scoring, and separation.

Versatile Scoring and Jobsite Transport

Each TK Tile cutter includes a 5/16" SILVER PLUS scoring wheel and a 7/8" EXTREME PLUS scoring wheel for different ceramic surfaces and cutting demands. The folding structure, rubber wheels, transport handle, and reinforced textile carrying case make these professional tile cutters easier to move, protect, and store between jobs.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What materials and thicknesses can RUBI TK Manual Tile Cutters handle?

RUBI designed the TK series for intensive ceramic tile cutting, with particular emphasis on porcelain stoneware and large-format material. Each model is rated for tile from 1/8" to 13/16" thick. Some ceramics thicker than 15 mm may require sample cuts to confirm manual cutting compatibility.

What are the cutting capacities of the RUBI TK models?

The TK-850 cuts 33" straight and 24" x 24" diagonally. The TK-1020 reaches 40" and 28" x 28", the TK-1300 reaches 51" and 36" x 36", and the TK-1600 reaches 62" and 43" x 43". All four models share the same thickness range and breaking force.

How does the asymmetrical monoguide improve cutting?

The asymmetrical monoguide offsets the guide so the scoring wheel and intended cut remain visible throughout its travel. A steel chassis, closed-profile extruded aluminum guide, chromed steel bearing surfaces, and radial bearings combine rigidity with smooth movement, helping the operator maintain control across longer cuts.

How does the PURE POWER breaking system work?

The PURE POWER multipoint breaker supplies up to 1,500 kg, or approximately 3,307 lbs., of separating force. A trigger-and-ratchet mechanism lets the operator score and break with one hand, leaving the other hand available to position or steady larger tile during the cutting process.

Can RUBI TK Tile Cutters make angled and repetitive cuts?

Yes. The removable aluminum swivel square uses magnetic and screw fixation to hold its setting, while the 12" lateral stop rotates from 45° to 90°. Together, they help installers position angled cuts and maintain a consistent reference for repetitive pieces or narrow strips.

How do TK Tile Cutters support large-format tile?

Suspended folding tables expand the supporting surface beneath larger tile and fold back when they are not needed. Combined with the rigid chassis and guide structure, they reduce unsupported overhang and provide a steadier platform while positioning, scoring, and breaking large-format pieces.

Which scoring wheels are included with the RUBI TK?

Each TK cutter includes a 5/16" (8 mm) SILVER PLUS scoring wheel and a 7/8" (22 mm) EXTREME PLUS scoring wheel. The series is also compatible with RUBI SLS PLUS scoring wheels, allowing contractors to select an appropriate wheel for different ceramic materials and surface characteristics.

How are RUBI TK Manual Cutters transported?

The foldable structure includes rubber transport wheels and a carrying handle for movement around the jobsite. Each model is also supplied with a reinforced textile carrying case, helping protect the cutter during transportation and storage while making the machine easier to manage between projects.
