CRESCENT-DIAMOND Tile Nippers

• 5/8″ jaws with carbide tips.
• Professional nippers
• Long lasting carbide cutting edges
• Handle spring to reduce fatigue and permit fast, repetitive cutting
• Dark red plastic handle grips
• Maximum thickness 29/64 in. / 11 mm.
• Cutting edge length 13/16 in. / 30 mm.
• Forged high grade steel, made in the USA.
• Tile nippers are used to make circular cuts in ceramic tile.
• Can be used to make straight or angled cuts although you will find it much easier to use a tile cutter or wet saw to make these types of cuts.
• Take small “nips” or “bites” out of it using the tile nippers. Take your time and keep the “bites” small, otherwise you risk breaking the tile and having to start all over again.
• Once the tile is completely cut use a piece of 60 grit sandpaper or a special rubbing stone used by ceramic tile contractors to smooth the finished edge.
• Especially when the cut will be exposed (e.g. around shower drains) as the edge of the cut tile will be very sharp.
