Its primary function is to precisely trim and clean plastic edging overhang after it has been cut, leaving a flush and smooth surface on panels and workpieces.
The scraper is designed with three distinct radii (R1, R1.5, and R2 mm) to accommodate standard plastic edge thicknesses of 1mm, 1.5mm, and 2mm.
It is specifically optimized for plastic edging. While it may work on some other thin flexible materials, its design and carbide sharpness are best suited for standard plastic edge bands.
