Blade Types That Make Cutting Easy
Double-Tip Knife Blades
These blades are celebrated for their exceptional accuracy, particularly for detailed work.

Drag Knife Blades (Kiss-Cut and Thin Vinyl Options)
If you're dealing with films, decals, or adhesive vinyl, drag knife blades are the go-to choice:
- Summa 53°/50° Drag and Kiss-Cut Blades:Designed for thin materials like adhesive vinyl or films, these blades (e.g., Summa part numbers 500-9801, 500-9802, 500-9803) perform admirably when cutting through layers up to approximately 1–1.2 mm thick.

Tangential Blades (Double-Tip or 36° Variants)
For precise and continuous cuts, tangential blades step in:
- 36° Tangential Blades:Available in Summa’s 390-534 standard packs or 390-551 double-tip sets, these blades are excellent for vinyl, decals, and flexible media requiring sharp edges and clean finishes.

Double-Edge Cutout Blades
When dealing with rigid substrates, double-edge blades shine:
-50° Double-Edge Blades:Ideal for tougher materials like PVC, foam board, and coroplast, these types (e.g., Summa 500-9804) ensure neat straight cuts without burring for thicknesses up to about 5–6 mm.

Heavy-Duty Cutout and Pneumatic Oscillating Tools (POT Knives)
These specialized tools handle your industrial-grade cutting needs:
- Heavy-Duty Cutout Blades:Perfect for denser and thicker rigid materials up to 15–25 mm (depending on density and cutting speed). Common examples include Summa part numbers 500-9830 and 500-9831 (POT Knife Flat Point).

Matching Blade Types to Materials
Choosing the right blade can make all the difference in achieving professional results. Here's a quick guide to help:
- Thin Vinyl / Adhesive Films:For materials like adhesive-backed films, rely on 53°/50° drag or kiss-cut blades (e.g., Summa 500-9802/9803-style).
- Corrugated Boards and Foamboard: Oscillating/drag knives or POT-type blades (e.g., Summa 500-9801 drag blade and 500-9830/9831 POT knives) offer superior performance.
- Rigid Substrates (PVC, Acrylics, Dense Foam):Use double-edge cutout blades or heavy-duty alternatives like Summa's 500-9804 or 500-9807 models to ensure cleanly executed cuts even on tougher panels.

Whether you're working in sign-making, packaging, or industrial prototyping, the Summa F-Series equips you with a range of tools tailored to different tasks. The key is understanding how each blade type works with specific materials to unlock their full potential.
