RYOBI cut-off tools FAQs

What is a cut-off tool?

A cut-off tool is a compact, handheld power tool that uses a rapidly spinning abrasive disc to cut through hard materials. Unlike an angle grinder, it is specifically designed for straight, clean cutting rather than surface preparation. The small size of a compact cut-off tool makes it highly manoeuvrable and ideal for working in confined areas where larger saws won't fit.

What is a cut-off tool used for?

Cut-off power tools are incredibly versatile and used for cutting dense and hard materials. Common cut-off tool uses include:

• Cutting ceramic, porcelain and stone tiles
• Slicing through metal pipework, rebar, bolts and sheet metal
• Trimming plastic conduit and PVC pipes
• Making plunge cuts in drywall for sockets and switches

How to use a cut-off tool

First, ensure you are wearing appropriate safety gear, including safety glasses and gloves. Select the correct disc for the material you are cutting and install it securely. Next, insert your battery or connect to your power supply, and adjust the guard to deflect sparks. Secure your workpiece with clamps, then bring the tool to full speed before making contact. Use a firm grip and apply steady, even pressure to guide the cut-off tool through the material.

Can you use a cut-off tool on wood?

No, a cut-off tool shouldn't be used for wood. The abrasive disc rotates at a very high speed, so using it on wood could cause it to splinter and potentially burn rather than cut cleanly. For cutting wood, always use the correct tool, such as a circular saw or jigsaw.
