PORTER-CABLE PCE980 Wet Tile Saw

Porter-Cable also considered the wet nature of tiling jobs, that’s why the PCE980 is made of sturdy stainless steel that will not corrode or rust. And as a wet tile saw, the Porter-Cable is equipped with a fully functional water system that helps to drive the blade with little or no effort on the user’s part. Unlike some wet tile saws that splash water in different directions creating a mess, the Porter-Cable PCE980 is fitted with a blade guard to prevent this from happening. Furthermore, the tile debris and water are channeled to a basin below the stainless steel table, where they can be easily disposed of once the basin is filled. But note that you have to take your time to dismantle the machine before you can clean the basin properly.

Additionally, if you have used tile saws with blunt blades, you will understand how frustrating it can be when cutting tiles. In fact, in most cases, blunt blades may render the tile completely useless. Hence, the importance of getting a tile saw machine with a sharp blade cannot be overemphasized. In light of this, Porter-Cable did not disappoint as it equipped the PCE980 with a 7-inch blade that’s sharp enough to cut through ceramics, porcelain, and stone tiles. So you don’t need to spend extra money on getting sharper blades when you buy the PCE980. You will get to appreciate the functionality of the blades more when you discover that most blades do not work well on thick tiles and stone pavers. But guess what? This one does.
