Distar Glider 45 – 45° Mitre Cutting Tool for 5" Angle Grinders - 71419034037
The Distar Glider 45 is a 45° tile mitre cutting tool that mounts directly to any 4.5–5" (115–125mm) angle grinder via a universal gearbox attachment. Cut precise, consistent 45° bevels on porcelain and ceramic tile with zero vibration and professional accuracy — no wobble, no guesswork. Handles tiles from 600mm to 3600mm long and material up to 14mm thick, with integrated adjustable dust extraction and a scratch-resistant base to protect high-gloss surfaces throughout the cut.
Key Features
- Precision 45° Bevel Cutting: Guided cutting system locks in the bevel angle for consistent mitre joints on porcelain and ceramic — no dedicated tile saw required.
- Universal Angle Grinder Mount: Fits any 4.5–5" angle grinder via included adapter ring set. No dedicated machine needed.
- Integrated Adjustable Dust Extraction: Built-in dust extraction with vacuum adapter keeps the work area clean during dry cutting.
- Scratch-Resistant Base: Protects tile faces from scratching during the cut — critical for high-gloss and polished porcelain.
- Reversible for Small Pieces: Flip upside down on a table to safely cut small tile pieces that are difficult to handle freehand.
- 50–52° Cutting Angle: Slightly over-bevel reduces the need for additional grinding on the finished edge.
- Large Format Compatible: Works on tiles from 600mm up to 3600mm in length.
