⚠Corresponding material: Only plastics (PS resin, PP resin, ABS resin, PE resin) can be cut.

Cutting Capability: Only compatible materials with a diameter of 3mm or less can be cut.

However, due to the rigidity of transparent/translucent PS resin, its diameter is limited to 2 mm or less.

Sharp edge of Nipper

The edge of nipper is in a lower position than blunt side to prevent staggered cuts so nipper can beoperated in a regular way.It cuts the thing off vertically.

Blunt edge of Nipper

The blunt edge of nipper is in a higher position than left side so the edge can cut straightly without exerting a force. It plays a role to set a thing horizontally.

It cuts cleanly as if cutting with a knife and a chopping board.

NOTICES

Control pin:

It can prevent the spring from coming off due to the blade opening too widely. (Cannot be removed)

Blade stopper:

Do not cut plastic board.

Use the middle of the blade for cutting.

Do not cut with the tip of the bladebecause it is fragile.

How to use & TIP

Use the nippers to cut plastic sprues and take parts off from plastic kit.
It's not suitable to cut hard plastic runners (ex: transparent/translucent PS.)

Stick blunt side on sprues.
Make sharp side parallel to plastic parts.

Cut the sprues vertically.
The cleanest possible parts removal.

Sprues in the middle

Because of height difference between the blades, it’s necessary to trim the sprues using a model-making scalpel.

Maintenance
