Item Name:
Pistol-Grip Oiled Glass Cutter
SKU:

Description:
The Pistol-Grip Oiled Glass Cutter is a hand-held scoring tool that uses a pistol-grip handle for control and leverage while cutting sheet glass. It is designed to deliver a consistent score line, and the oiled style feeds a small amount of cutting oil to the wheel during use to help the wheel roll smoothly and reduce chatter. This style of cutter is used when you need clean, predictable breaks for glassworking tasks such as preparing blanks, trimming sheet for kilnforming, or cutting stock for coldworking and shop fabrication.
How it is used:
- Mark your cut line, then hold the cutter like a pistol grip so you can keep steady downward pressure while scoring.
- Make one continuous score from edge to edge with consistent pressure, then stop and do not rescore the same line.
- Break the glass using appropriate running pliers or controlled edge pressure, following the score line.
- Keep the cutter wheel lubricated with glass cutting oil so the wheel rolls smoothly and the score stays even.
