Common questions
How does it self-retract?
The blade is out only while you hold the button. Release it and the blade retracts.
Why the short exposure?
To part tape and light board without reaching the contents. For thick goods use the 1/2" 42060 or the 11/16" metal 42062.
Why polypropylene instead of metal?
Weight. It is lighter for high-volume all-day cutting. The die-cast metal knives are more durable.
Where do the blades come from?
The round-tip 42102 dispenser, one at a time. Put spent blades in a sharps container.
