About Cross Hatch Cutter
Cross Hatch Cutter
This type Cross Hatch Cutter is designed to used on uneven substrate surface. Its head is lossen to be suitable to different usage. More convenient and easy to use.
Engineered for Accuracy and ConsistencyEach Cross Hatch Cutter is equipped with hardened stainless steel blades arranged in 6 or 11-blade configurations, ensuring uniform lattice patterns with every use. The tool performs reliably on film thicknesses up to 250 microns, delivering precise adhesion test results across a range of applications.
Ergonomic Design for Comfortable UseThe non-slip, ergonomic aluminium handle is crafted for optimum grip during testing, reducing hand fatigue in laboratory environments. Its balanced design enhances control, allowing users to achieve accurate and repeatable cuts with minimal effort.
Versatile Applications and Easy MaintenanceCompatible with paint, coatings, and lacquered surfaces, the cutter accommodates multiple measurement ranges with blade spacing options of 1 mm, 2 mm, and 3 mm. Easily replace worn blades to maintain sharpness and longevity, and utilize the protective case and blade cover for safe storage and portability.
FAQs of Cross Hatch Cutter:
Q: How does the Cross Hatch Cutter perform adhesion testing?
A: This tool creates precise, uniform cross-hatch incisions through paint or coating films using 6 or 11 hardened stainless steel blades. The resulting pattern allows you to assess adhesion strength by evaluating any flaking or detachment using the included visual comparator chart, following ASTM D3359 and ISO 2409 methods.
Q: What materials and film thicknesses can this cutter be used on?
A: The Cross Hatch Cutter is suitable for use on paints, coatings, and lacquered surfaces with film thicknesses up to 250 microns. It accommodates various blade spacings (1 mm, 2 mm, and 3 mm) according to your adhesion testing requirements.
Q: When should I replace the blades, and how is this done?
A: Blades should be replaced when you notice dullness or reduced cutting accuracy. The design allows for easy blade replacementjust remove the old blades and swap in new ones to maintain precise and consistent performance.
Q: Where can this equipment be used effectively?
A: Its optimized for ambient laboratory conditions and can be used by dealers, distributors, exporters, importers, manufacturers, and service providers across India. Its portable design ensures safe and convenient use both on-site and in dedicated labs.
Q: What are the advantages of using this Cross Hatch Cutter over other adhesion testers?
A: This cutter offers highly consistent results, follows internationally recognized standards (ASTM D3359, ISO 2409), and features a robust, ergonomic aluminium body. With replaceable stainless steel blades and a handy comparator chart, it streamlines both test procedures and result interpretations.
Q: How is the measurement range determined for different coatings?
A: You can select between 1 mm, 2 mm, or 3 mm blade spacings based on coating thickness and test standard requirements. The cutters versatile design allows straightforward adjustments for both thin and thick films, up to 250 microns.
Q: Is any power supply needed for operation?
A: No, the Cross Hatch Cutter operates manually, requiring no external power. This enhances its reliability and portability for adhesion testing in diverse environments.
