The HFS (R) 17" Guillotine Paper Cutter Replacement Cutting Stick is an essential accessory for maintaining the cutting performance of your paper cutter. The cutting stick, with its red surface, is the contact point for the blade during the cutting process. Over time, the blade creates a deep groove in the cutting stick, which can impact the ability to cleanly cut the last few sheets of paper. When this occurs, it is necessary to rotate or replace the cutting stick. This replacement cutting stick is designed for HFS 17" Stack Paper Cutter and features a square shape measuring 3/4" x 3/4". With a length of 17.5 inches, it perfectly fits your cutter and ensures consistent and accurate cuts. The cutting stick can be used on both sides by flipping it length-wise, allowing for rotation to a fresh section. This provides eight usable areas in total, prolonging the lifespan of the cutting stick and saving you replacement costs. Crafted from high-quality PVC material, the cutting stick offers excellent durability and resilience. It withstands the constant impact of the blade, ensuring long-lasting performance. The cutting stick's hardness rating of 80-82A provides optimal support and stability, promoting precise and clean cuts with each use.
