Perfect 45° Miter Cuts on Porcelain Tile | Mechanic SLIDER 45 PRO 2.0
Freehand 45° miter cuts on porcelain tile are inconsistent, risky, and slow. The Mechanic SLIDER 45 PRO 2.0 eliminates the guesswork — giving you a precision sliding guide that locks your angle grinder into a perfect bevel every single time, with integrated dust extraction and wet/dry cutting support.
Watch it in action:
What Is the SLIDER 45 PRO 2.0?
The SLIDER 45 PRO 2.0 is a professional 45° miter cutting system for 4.5"–5" angle grinders. It comes as a complete kit with a 5" Edge Dry diamond blade purpose-built for bevel cuts, and supports tiles up to 20mm (0.78") thick. The reinforced body with stiffening ribs keeps the guide rigid under load — critical for chip-free results on large-format porcelain.
