Strip Film Cutter

Precision cutter for preparing uniform strip and film test specimens for tensile, tear, and permeability testing. Delivers clean, parallel edges and consistent specimen width.

Parallel-edged film strips for tensile and tear tests

Film tensile and tear results are only reliable if the strip edges are clean and parallel; a nick or uneven width starts the failure early. The strip film cutter cuts film, foil and thin sheet into strips of uniform width with straight, parallel edges in a single, safe operation. It prepares specimens for tensile testing of films to ISO 527-3 and ASTM D882, as well as tear and permeability tests.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why use a dedicated strip cutter?

Scissors or knives leave nicks and uneven widths that act as crack starters; a strip cutter gives clean, parallel edges and a constant width, so results reflect the material.

Which tests are the strips used for?

Tensile tests of films and thin sheet (ISO 527-3, ASTM D882), and preparation for tear and permeability tests.

Which materials can be cut?

Plastic films, foils and thin sheets.

Is installation included?

Yes — on-site installation and training, with a 1-year warranty.
