Overview
The Clean Cut90 Tubing Cutter is designed for producing precise, burr‑free cuts on laboratory tubing materials such as PEEK, fluoropolymers, and soft metals.
The blade is a critical component of the cutter, engineered to provide a balance of sharpness, durability, and safety for routine laboratory use.

Blade Material Composition
High‑Carbon Standard Steel
-
The cutting blade is manufactured from high‑carbon standard steel, chosen for its blend of:
- Hardness
- Edge retention
- Cost‑effectiveness
- Suitability for precision polymer and soft‑metal cutting
Not a Specialty Alloy
-
The blade does not use coatings or specialty materials such as:
- Tungsten carbide
- Ceramic
- Hard coatings like TiN or DLC
This material selection ensures consistent performance while keeping replacement costs low.
Protective Blade Wrapping
Each Blade Is Individually Wrapped in Tin Foil
This protective packaging serves two important purposes:
-
Corrosion prevention
-
Tin foil acts as a moisture barrier to reduce rust and oxidation during storage or non‑use.
-
-
Safe handling
-
Prevents accidental cuts when unpacking or installing the blade.
