Distar Mechanic Roller 76 Perpendicular Cutting Guard for 76mm Grinders - 71419031047

The Distar Mechanic Roller 76 is a cutting guard and perpendicular guide accessory for 76mm angle grinders, designed to eliminate blade angle variation during manual tile cutting. By maintaining a consistently perpendicular blade-to-tile angle without operator effort, it dramatically reduces chipping risk on porcelain stoneware and ceramic tile. No-trace rollers allow smooth, effortless movement along the tile surface. A dedicated dust extraction nozzle and silicone seal capture cutting dust directly at the source. Fits open protective guards only — not compatible with semi-enclosed guards.

Key Features

• Perpendicular Cutting — No Operator Effort: Roller system maintains a perfect 90° blade angle throughout the cut, eliminating the most common cause of unwanted chips.
• No-Trace Rollers: Special roller material glides along the tile surface without leaving marks or scratches.
• Complete Dust Extraction: Dedicated dust extraction nozzle and silicone seal capture cutting dust directly at the cutting zone — compatible with standard vacuum extraction.
• Open Guard Mount: Installs on the open protective guard of 76mm angle grinders. Not compatible with semi-enclosed guards.
• For 76mm Angle Grinders: Designed for the growing class of compact, lightweight 76mm grinders increasingly favoured by tile professionals.

Why 76mm Grinders?

76mm angle grinders are significantly lighter and more manoeuvrable than 115–125mm models, and the smaller blade diameter gives the disc increased rigidity. The Mechanic Roller 76 unlocks the full precision potential of these tools by removing the perpendicularity challenge from manual cutting.

Applications

• Straight precision cuts in porcelain stoneware and ceramic tile
• Dust-controlled cutting in enclosed or indoor work areas
