Dewalt wet tile saw: DEWALT, a leading manufacturer
of power tools, today introduced its new portable 10"
inch wet tile saw. The new D24000 10" wet tile saw is
the only cart saw on the market to offer 24" rip capacity
and 18" capacity on diagonal with a total weight under
70 pounds. DEWALT designed this tile saw with innovative features
such as a patented water containment system and the highly
accurate ACCU-TRAC™ rail system. In addition, the D24000
can make plunge cuts as well as quick 45o/22.5o bevel cuts.
These features provide the professional contractor with a
unique wet tile saw that will increase productivity on the
jobsite.
The Dewalt D24000 tile saw is equipped with its patented,
stainless steel ACCU-TRAC™ rail system that is integrated
into the saw frame and ensures accurate cuts, alleviating
the need for daily calibration. Micro-fine tuning screws provide
quick and easy vertical and horizontal rail adjustment. The
cart features sealed, dual-bearing rollers, which alleviate
cart wobble and eliminate the need for lubrication. The rustproof,
stainless steel rail system ensures durability and strength
throughout the life of the saw. The Dewalt saw also features
a cut indicator, making it quick and easy to align cuts from
blade to fence.
The new Dewalt D24000 10" wet tile saw is the only cart
saw on the market to offer 24" rip capacity and 18"
capacity on diagonal with a total weight under 70 pounds.
The cutting cart cantilevers off the front and back of the
rails to offer large capacity without the need for a long
water pan and rail system. The offset support arm provides
12.5 inches of clearance to the left of the blade. The user
can also utilize the detachable cart extension for extra support
when ripping large tiles and clipping corners.
Through extensive field research, DEWALT identified the need
for a wet tile saw that could handle tough demands on the
jobsite while being lightweight and easy to transport. The
1.5 horsepower, 15 Amp motor in the DEWALT tile saw offers
the same performance as motors in larger, heavier saws, but
this unit weighs in at only 69 pounds. DEWALT designed the
D24000 with an aluminum frame and ABS plastic water pan to
further reduce the overall weight. The D24000’s low
weight and compact water pan make it possible for one user
to transport the saw into the worksite in just 2 easy trips
Innovative features to contain mist, blade spray and run-off
separate the DEWALT tile saw from similar products offered
by competitive brands. The D24000 boasts best-in-class water
containment made possible by large, detachable water trays
that catch water spray and spill-over and direct it back into
the pan while blade overspray is controlled by a heavy-duty
3-piece, rubber shroud. It also offers an adjustable water
nozzle system that delivers water to the point of the cut
without creating a tremendous amount of mist. Working with
the nozzle system, a flow restrictor controls the volume of
water that reaches the blade in order to limit water mist
and over-spray.
The integrated 45o and 22.5o bevel feature allows the user
to make fast angled cuts without the need for an awkward and
bulky 45o cart block. The head also plunges into the material,
making pocket cuts quick and easy for AC registers and electrical
outlets.
Other features on the Dewalt D24000 tile saw include a large
heavy-duty on/off switch, a rubber cart surface, extra wide
edge guide for increased accuracy and a number of on-board
storage placements. General contractors, tile setters, and
remodelers will find that this tile saw provides many options
to increase jobsite productivity. The D24000 Dewalt tile saw
easily cuts man made materials such as ceramic and porcelain
and natural stones such as marble, granite, travertine, slate,
limestone and brick. A folding stand (D24001) with adjustable
heights is available for the D24000.
