Wheeled Glass Nippers Pro Classic – 20 cm
Wheeled Glass Nippers for Cutting and Shaping Mosaic Tiles
Pro Classic wheeled glass nippers help you cut glass mosaic tiles to the size and shape your project needs. Use the two cutting wheels to split tiles, trim them into narrower pieces and shape their edges. The long handles provide leverage, while the carbide wheels can be repositioned to bring an unused section of the cutting edge into use when the current section becomes dull.
Which Materials Can You Cut?
These nippers are particularly suitable for glass mosaic tiles and thin ceramics. You can also use them to shape pieces from old plates and cups, provided the material and thickness are suitable for cutting with nippers.
For thick floor tiles, porcelain tiles or very hard ceramics, choose a cutting tool designed for that material. Cutting results depend on the material, its thickness and your cutting technique.
Why Choose Pro Classic Nippers?
- Shape tiles to fit your design: Split glass mosaic tiles, trim narrower pieces and shape edges with small cuts.
- Extend the life of the cutting wheels: Reposition the carbide wheels to use a fresh section of the cutting edge when the working section becomes dull.
- Leverage from long handles: Approximately 20 cm long, these nippers offer controlled handling for regular mosaic work.
How to Use Your Mosaic Nippers
Position the mosaic tile between the cutting wheels at the point where you want to cut. Squeeze the handles steadily and with control. When shaping edges or making small details, work gradually with several small cuts. Practise on a spare piece first to get a feel for the material.
Always wear safety glasses, as cutting can produce sharp fragments. Keep the tile away from your face and your fingers clear of the cutting wheels. Wear protective gloves when needed and carefully collect all fragments after use.

Cutting Wheel Maintenance
When the working section of a cutting wheel becomes dull, loosen its fixing, rotate the wheel slightly to bring an unused section of the cutting edge into position, then tighten the fixing again. This allows you to keep using the wheel without replacing it as soon as one section becomes dull.
Before use, check that the cutting wheels are securely fastened and that the handles open and close normally. Clean any cutting debris from the tool after use.
