Ishii Big Clinker Tile Cutters — Professional Porcelain Tile Cutting Tools

The Ishii Big Clinker Tile Cutters are industry-standard cutting tools engineered for precision, power, and long-lasting performance. Available in 19", 22-3/4", 25-1/2", and 28-1/4" sizes, each cutter features a spring-loaded base and a low curved handle that provides an impressive 8:1 leverage ratio—ensuring deep scoring and smooth breaks with minimal effort.

Built with a modified sliding bearing block, hardened rails, and a die-cast aluminum alloy base, these cutters excel in both strength and stability. With the capability to cut materials up to 3/4" thick, they are ideal for hard porcelain tiles, sheet-mounted mosaics, and more.

Customer Questions
Do the Ishii Cutters come with an extra cutting wheel?
No, but always a good idea to pick up a spare cutting wheel. We carry all the Ishii Cutting Wheels as well as the Ishii Tile Cutters.
What is the difference between the Ishii JP line and the JW's?
The JP cutters have a wheel height adjustment on the handle. We carry the JP-700STA, which is the 27-1/2 .in version. They will be on the website by the beginning of next week. They are in stock now however.
What is the manufacturer warranty?
Ishii stands behind their tile cutters and being a manual tool, not much to go wrong under normal use. We offer a 30 day over the counter return policy.
Does this model, JW-480S, have ball bearings in the sliding block or just plain bushings?
Yes, all the Ishii cutters we carry have ball bearing sliding blocks.
what lubricant is recommended to lubricate the bearings?
An oil like this Alpha Cutter Oil would work great on the Ishii bearings: https://www.masterwholesale.com/alpha-ez-cutter-oil-8oz.html
