7 Segment 18mm Knife Blades Stainless Steel Snap Off Blades

18mm Stainless Steel Cutting Blade With 7 Segment for Precision Cutting Knife

Description

Our 18mm stainless steel cutting blade is high quality cutting tool designed to meet the demands of precise cutting tasks. Made from durable stainless steel, this blade offers excellent performance and reliability. With size of 100mm in length and 18mm in width, providing a substantial cutting surface that allows for efficient handling of various materials. The 0.50mm thickness strikes a perfect balance between flexibility and strength, ensuring smooth and stable cuts. With each blade weighing 6.7 grams, it has a solid feel in hand while still being manageable during use. The unique 7-segment design further enhances its functionality, enabling users to snap off segments as needed when the cutting edge becomes dull, thus always maintaining a sharp and precise cutting edge for continuous and accurate work.

Product Feature

Optimal Dimensions

The 100mm x 18mm size offers great control and reach, allowing for precise cuts on materials of different sizes. The 0.50mm thickness gives the blade the necessary flexibility to follow the contours of the cutting surface while maintaining its structural integrity.

7-Segment Design

The innovative 7-segment design is a standout feature. When one segment gets dull, users can simply snap it off to reveal a fresh, sharp edge, maximizing the usability of the blade and reducing the need for frequent replacements.

Precision Cutting

Thanks to its well-engineered design and quality material, this blade is capable of delivering highly precise cuts, making it ideal for tasks that require accuracy, such as crafting, model making, and detailed DIY projects.

Premium Stainless Steel Material

Constructed from stainless steel, this blade is highly resistant to corrosion, making it suitable for use in a wide range of environments, including those with moisture or exposure to mild chemicals. It won't rust easily, ensuring a long lifespan and consistent cutting performance over time.
 

Differences between Stainless Steel and High Carbon Steel Utility Knife Blades

Corrosion Resistance:
1.Stainless Steel Blades: As mentioned earlier, stainless steel blades have excellent corrosion resistance due to the presence of chromium and other alloying elements. They can withstand exposure to moisture, humidity, and mild chemicals without rusting easily. This makes them a great choice for environments like kitchens, bathrooms, or outdoor settings where the blade might come into contact with water or other substances regularly.

2.High Carbon Steel Blades: High carbon steel blades, on the other hand, are more prone to rusting. They lack the inherent corrosion-resistant properties of stainless steel and require careful storage in dry conditions and regular maintenance, such as wiping them clean and applying oil after use, to prevent rust formation.

Initial Sharpness and Edge Retention:
1.Stainless Steel Blades: Stainless steel typically has a slightly lower initial sharpness compared to high carbon steel. However, it maintains its edge reasonably well over time, especially for lighter cutting tasks. It may not hold an extremely sharp edge for as long as high carbon steel when dealing with tougher materials, but it offers consistent performance for a variety of common cutting applications.

2.High Carbon Steel Blades: High carbon steel blades are renowned for their high initial sharpness and excellent edge retention when cutting through materials like paper, plastic, and thin woods. They can hold a sharp edge for a long time even with frequent use, provided the cutting materials are within their capacity. But when used on very hard materials, they may be more likely to chip or dull quickly if not used properly.

Toughness and Durability:
1.Stainless Steel Blades: Stainless steel has good overall toughness and durability, making it suitable for a wide range of cutting tasks without breaking easily. It can handle moderate pressure and is less likely to suffer from brittle fractures compared to some other materials.

2.High Carbon Steel Blades: While high carbon steel is very hard, it may have relatively lower toughness compared to certain stainless steel alloys. This means that under excessive force or when cutting extremely hard materials, high carbon steel blades are more prone to chipping or cracking, although they are excellent for cutting tasks within their appropriate hardness range.
 

FAQ
1Q: When to snap off a segment?
A: Snap it off when the cutting edge gets dull, with less precise cuts or visible wear like nicks.

2Q: Do the blades fit any precision cutting knife?
A: They're designed for most standard ones with an 18mm blade holder. Check compatibility before buying.

3Q: How to clean and maintain the blades?
A: Wipe with a dry or slightly damp cloth after use. Store in a dry place.

4Q: Are they suitable for cutting thick metal sheets?
A: No, they're for thin materials like paper, cardstock, etc. Not for thick metal.

5Q: What's the advantage of the 7-segment design?
A: You can get fresh edge by snapping off a dull segment, saving time and cost, ensuring consistent precision cutting.
