Quality Cuts: DME Premium Gate Cutters

The Best – Gate Cutters & Trimmers Fit for Every Need.

Features:

• High carbon steel holds its edge and out lasts the competition by 1.5-2 times
• Electronically hardened and precision ground to 30˚ results in an ultrasharp, low profile cutting edge than the competition’s 60˚ allowing the blade to cut through plastic without pinching or crushing
• 7 blade shapes
• 10 gate cutter lengths
• Ergonomic cutters to reduce stress in the wrist when performing repetitive tasks (right and left handed versions available)

Mini Size Nippers

Mini Size Nippers for small sprue and gate cutting where less force is required. The unique hinge design and off set handles provide a cam action resulting in increased blade cutting pressure with less effort than traditional cutters. The new hinge design, highly polished blades and coil spring pack a 1,2,3 punch allowing for hours of cutting with less fatigue.

Thin Blade Cutters

Thin Blade Cutters are ideal due to their slicing action through the gate as apposed to a crush and cut which leaves an unattractive edge and requires more hand force. Try a thin blade cutter to see and feel the difference.

Single Blade Cutters

The Single Blade Cutters are designed for cutting the hard plastic gates of engineered resins (POM, PA, PC, etc.). A single blade enables the user to “slice off” plastic without leaving flash on the cut section for a nice clean edge. The cutters also incorporate a coil spring for easy continuous cutting. Available in Round and Flat Face blades to fit your application.

Comfort Grip Cutters

Comfort Grip Cutters feature a combination of comfortable elastomer handles and polished blades to a perfect matched allowing this cutter not only to provide a beautiful cut but to feel great while doing so. The cutters also incorporate a coil spring for easy continuous cutting and are available in 5 and 6 inch overall lengths.

Heavy Duty Cutters

Heavy Duty Cutters are designed specifically for cutting heavy duty large sprues with reduced hand pressure. The unique hinge design and forging positions the pivot point off-center to create a cam action which increases blade cutting pressure. Most suitable for large and glass filled gate cutting associated with injection molded plastic, plastic burrs and plastic model making. Available in 7 and 8 inch overall lengths.

Force Enhancement Cutters

Force Enhancement Cutters are newly designed cutters ideal for repeat cutting of large, heavy sprues and particularly tough applications such as glass-filled resins. The forged high carbon steel blades are ground and polished to achieve very keen edge, resulting in a beautiful cut cross section. Coil springs are incorporated to continuous cutting. Sanitary antibacterial grip handles are applied to prolong use.

End & Angle Cutting Nippers

End and Angle Cutting Nippers for easy cutting of gates no matter the application DME has the cutter for you. End Plastic Cutting Nippers for vertical entry suitable for cutting gates and burrs in recessed areas. Coil springs are incorporated enabling continuous cutting. Sanitary antibacterial grip handles are applied to prolong use.

Angled Plastic Cutting Nippers

Angled Plastic Cutting Nippers for vertical entry. Most suitable to finish cut tunnel gate and pin gate areas. Both cutters have rounded blades with sanitary antibacterial grip handles applied to prolong use.
