195mm SmartCut Rubberised Scissors are trade-grade manual cutting tools engineered for precise trimming of adhesive-backed vinyls and synthetic textiles in high-volume signage and construction environments. These shears combine 85mm precision-ground stainless steel blades with a rubber polymer grip to ensure burr-free cuts while significantly reducing hand fatigue during repetitive workshop tasks.
Manufactured under ISO 9001 Quality Management standards, the symmetrical design provides a slip-resistant, reliable solution for processing films and laminates at temperatures up to 45°C.
Frequently Asked Questions About 195mm SmartCut Rubberised Scissors
Q: Can these scissors cut through adhesive films?
A: Yes, the ultra-sharp stainless blades make them suitable for adhesive-backed vinyls, decals, and tape. Clean blades after use to avoid residue build-up.
