oil-feed glass cutters, used for scoring glass, tiles, and other hard materials prior to breaking them cleanly. The set includes multiple cutters, distinguished by red and blue handles, possibly indicating different cutting wheel sizes or angles for various material thicknesses.
Key Details
Function: These pen-style tools feature a small, sharp carbide or diamond tip wheel used to score a precise line on the surface of the material.
Oil-Feed Mechanism: The handle typically serves as a reservoir for cutting oil, which automatically lubricates the cutting wheel during use. This lubrication helps achieve a smoother score and extends the life of the wheel.
Application: They are commonly used in various trades and crafts, including glazier work, mosaic art, and DIY projects involving cutting glass or tile.
