- Brass cutter block with contoured edges to minimize gasket material buckling and assure precision cuts
- Heavy-duty blades ensures precise cuts through any gasket material
- Chrome-plated, steel extension bars provide for gasket cuts up to 25? in diameter
- 18? x 18? (457mm x 457mm) board features plastic non-slip, textured surface that reduces blade friction and self-heals after each use
- Ergonomic design offers secure, comfortable grip
Extension-style kits feature premium, brass cutter block with contoured edges to minimize gasket material buckling and assure precision cuts. Ergonomic design offers secure, comfortable grip. Easy-to-read, engraved, precision scale. Sliding, knurled nut adjusts cutting radius. Chrome-plated, steel extension bars provide for cuts up to 61? (1550mm) in diameter. Not all extension bars available are included in this kit. Hex screws hold cutting blade for cuts up to 3/4? (19.05mm) in depth. 18? x 18? (457mm x 457mm) cutting board features plastic non-slip, textured surface that reduces blade friction, minimizes breakage, and self-heals after each use. Includes rugged storage case, dove-tail designer template, bolt hole locator template, and center pin handle.
In general, extension-style gasket cutters are often used where portability is key. Their lightweight, modular nature makes them ideal for gasket fabrication "in the field". However, some end-users have the luxury of a dedicated gasket fabrication table where large sheets of gasket material can be laid out flat. This is particularly useful where very large diameter gaskets (larger than the standard 18" x 18" cutting board) are routinely fabricated. Extension style cutters are often preferred for cutting non-rigid or non-metallic gasket materials.
