Purpose and function Hand tool designed for precise handling of tile wire and for guiding tiles during masonry work. Outer jaw contains the exact wire grooves so tile wire runs consistently; design lets the wire pass smoothly around both inner and outer corners. Key benefits (why you need it) Faster, more accurate tile lines: the spring clip in the tile insert holds each tile securely so masons can run straight, repeatable lines without frequent repositioning. Built for long-term use: precision craftsmanship and strict performance standards mean the tool retains high performance over time, reducing tool downtime and replacements. Improved corner management: the wire-groove layout on the outer jaw simplifies transitions around interior and exterior corners, reducing wire slippage and alignment errors. Features that matter Exact wire grooves located on the outer jaw to control tile wire routing. Spring clip in the tile insert for reliable tile clamping during layout and installation. Manufactured with precision to meet demanding performance requirements expected from professional hand tools. Compatibility and performance Suited to standard tile-setting workflows and compatible with common tile wire setups used by masons. Designed to deliver consistent clamping and wire guidance across repeated use, supporting professional installation speeds and accuracy. Practical applications / use scenarios New construction: lay long, straight tile runs on walls or floors with the spring clip holding tiles steady while you align and fasten. Corner installations: route tile wire around inside and outside corners cleanly, ensuring corner tiles remain aligned without rework. Repair and remodeling: quickly re-establish accurate tile lines when replacing or realigning tiles, benefiting from the tool’s secure clamping and wire control. Why professionals choose it Minimizes time spent adjusting tiles during layout. Provides reliable tile holding and wire control to maintain consistent tile lines. Engineered precision and durable performance reduce interruptions on the job. Use tips Position the tile in the insert and allow the spring clip to engage before running the wire to ensure secure holding. Feed the tile wire into the outer jaw grooves for best control when working around corners. This tool focuses on improving accuracy, speed, and reliability for tile-setting and masonry tasks where secure holding and precise wire routing are required.
