What our Experts Think

• Ultimate precision system for large-format slabs - Designed for clean, accurate cutting of porcelain, sintered stone, and XXL tiles up to 3.2 m, making it ideal for modern slab installations.
• Ultra-light G3 rail technology - New aluminum G3 guide system reduces weight while maintaining rigidity, improving handling and reducing fatigue during setup and cutting.
• High-precision scoring performance - Equipped with an EXTREME scoring wheel and smooth carriage system, ensuring consistent, chip-free scoring on delicate surfaces.
• Secure guided cutting stability - Carriage is engineered to prevent derailment from rails and maintain perfect alignment, even on long cuts.
• Integrated suction cup system - Built-in adjustable suction cups hold large tiles firmly in place, improving safety and cutting accuracy.
• Modular expansion capability - Rail system is extendable for longer slabs, giving flexibility for different jobsite formats and tile sizes.
• Professional jobsite efficiency - Includes transport bag, ergonomic handling system, and fast setup design, optimized for installers working with large-format tile daily.

Q&A

Q: What is the Rubi SLAB Cutter G3 used for?
A: It is a professional manual scoring and breaking system designed for precise cutting of large-format porcelain slabs and thin panels.

Q: What tile sizes can it handle?
A: It cuts slabs up to 320 cm (≈126") in length using modular guide extensions.

Q: What tile thickness is supported?
A: Designed for thin porcelain panels, typically around 3–12 mm depending on configuration.

Q: How does it cut tiles?
A: It uses a precision scoring wheel to score the surface, followed by controlled breaking with a breaker tool for clean separation.

Q: What is included in the kit?
A: Guides, scoring carriage, suction cups for stability, breaking pliers, and a transport bag (varies slightly by region).

Q: What makes the G3 system different?
A: New lightweight aluminum rails, improved coupling system between guides, and better carriage stability for smoother scoring.

Q: Does it need electricity or water?
A: No. It is a fully manual system—no power or water required, making it ideal for on-site use.

Q: Is it suitable for large-format porcelain slabs?
A: Yes, it is specifically engineered for XXL tiles where wet saws are impractical.

Q: What improves cutting accuracy?
A: Integrated suction cups, rigid guide rails, and a precision roller scoring carriage help maintain straight, consistent cuts.

Q: Why choose the SLAB Cutter G3?
A: It delivers portable, dust-free, high-precision cutting for large-format tile installations without the need for powered saws, making it efficient for professional installers.

Maintenance Tips

• Clean after every use: Remove porcelain dust and ceramic residue from G3 guides, carriage, and suction cups to maintain smooth scoring and accuracy.
• Keep guides perfectly straight: Inspect the aluminum G3 rails regularly; misalignment affects cutting precision on large-format slabs.
• Maintain scoring carriage: Ensure the 22mm EXTREME wheel rotates freely; replace when scoring becomes inconsistent or rough.
• Clean suction cups: Wash rubber bases to maintain strong grip and avoid slippage on large tiles.
• No lubrication on rails: Keep guides dry—oil attracts abrasive dust and reduces smooth movement.
• Check connection joints: Tighten guide coupling levers before each job to prevent flex during long cuts.
• Inspect breaking pliers: Ensure slab breaker operates smoothly for clean separation without edge damage.
• Dry storage only: Store in the carry bag in a dry area to prevent corrosion and maintain calibration accuracy.
