Ishii Red Turbo Jet Tile Cutter — Large Format Manual Tile Cutters
The Ishii Red Turbo Jet Manual Tile Cutters are engineered for professional tile installers who demand precision, strength, and reliability—especially when working with today’s increasingly large-format tiles. These cutters provide enhanced leverage through their specially designed low-curved handle, producing deep and clean scores with very little effort.
Built for cutting tiles up to 48-3/4 inches, the Red Turbo Jet series shares the trusted build quality of the Ishii Blue line but introduces a single-bar rail system with an adjustable bearing. This design ensures the cutter maintains accuracy over years of use—simply tighten the bearing as needed. The adjustable blade height further enhances versatility, allowing the cutter to handle wall tile, porcelain, and materials up to 3/4 inch thick.
Mosaic tiles are simple to cut thanks to the scoring wheel adjustment and the stable spring-loaded base, which allows for consistent breaking tile by tile. Each unit includes side arm extensions, a 3-1/2" wide breaker foot, and a titanium-coated 7/8" scoring wheel, ensuring smooth operation and exceptional durability.
Ishii Carry Bag is sold separately.
