Distar Glider 45 – 45° Mitre Cutting Tool for 5" Angle Grinders - 71419034037
The Distar Glider 45 is a next-generation 45° tile miter cutting tool that mounts directly to any 4.5?5" (115–125 mm) angle grinder via a universal gearbox attachment.
Cut perfect 45° bevels on porcelain and ceramic tile with zero vibration and professional precision — no wobble, no guesswork.
Adjustable dust extraction handles material up to 14 mm thick. Works on tiles from 600 mm to 3600 mm, and can be flipped upside down on a table for small pieces.
The 50–52° cutting angle reduces the need for additional grinding, and the scratch-resistant base keeps your tile surface protected throughout the cut.

Why Choose the Glider 45?
Freehand 45° cutting with a standard angle grinder is inconsistent and risky on expensive porcelain. The Glider 45 eliminates that uncertainty — its guided cutting system locks in the bevel angle, the scratch-resistant base protects the tile face, and integrated dust extraction keeps the job site clean. The result is a professional miter joint every time, without a tile saw.
Usage Tips
- Mount to a 4.5?5" angle grinder using the included adapter ring set
- Connect vacuum adapter for dust-free operation
- Set cutting depth for your tile thickness (up to 14 mm)
- For small pieces, flip the tool upside down and use on a stable table surface
- Use with a compatible 45° diamond blade for best edge quality
