Today's porcelain is harder, thicker, and more full-bodied than ever, and vitrified tile is more delicate — a manual cutter has to handle both without a fight. The Masterpiuma P5 is Montolit's answer: a lightweight but extremely strong alloy frame with reinforcements built into the points of greatest stress, delivering superior strength and accuracy on exactly the thick, full-body porcelain that bogs down lesser cutters. It's the fifth evolution of the world's benchmark manual tile cutter, and it earns the name.
The enhanced goniometric square makes precise angle cuts up to 45° in either direction and folds within the frame to protect its accuracy in transport. A redesigned handle integrates a force-indicator system so you can modulate pressure perfectly — scoring everything from thin glass mosaic to tile up to 20 mm thick — and the titanium-coated tungsten carbide scoring wheel is rated for 5,000 meters of use. Larger models add die-cast aluminum support wings for big-format work. It's offered from the classic 63P5 up to the new 161P5, and it's 100% recyclable and 100% Made in Italy.
Add the Cutlinea laser for large-format visibility, keep spare 245T scoring wheels and scoring oil on hand, and restore worn machines with the OEM handle assembly, breaker foot, and rip guides. For mosaic and glass, drop in the Mosakit rubber mat.
Pro tip: Let the force-indicator guide you — one firm, continuous scoring pass beats a doubled score every time, and consistent pressure is what gives you clean, chip-free snaps on hard porcelain. Keep the wheel oiled and swap it before it dulls; a tired wheel is the usual culprit behind a ragged break.
