Best tool to cut garage floor tiles?

[cb4798]

I purchased these floor mats - http://www.endurancemats.com/products-page/safety-... - but am not sure what tool is best to cut them. Does anyone have any thoughts.

I meant to call the company today, but, I forgot and I want to lay them tomorrow.

Thanks

angle grinder or tile disc cutter

Thanks.

Since they're vinyl and an angle grinder runs at such a high speed it'll probably melt them and clog the cutting disk which can be annoying at first and positively dangerous later on.
Try a less aggressive circular saw blade. Loads of multi-purpose ones out there now that cut everything from errr.......vinyl floor tiles to sheet ali.

I ended up in screwfix this morning and purchased this with a new blade - cheap and cheerful

At 14mm thick I'd expect they're a closed cell foam. I'd have thought a Stanley knife and steel rule would be sufficient.

Put the tile on the edge of a brick and hit it with a hammer...

To be honest i'm not entirely sure what they are made of now, but, the circular saw was overkill for this job (and it was bent so it didn't cut straight).

In the end I used a sharp stanley knife which worked quite well
