Swanstrom - Heart Shape Disc Cutter
Achieve precise, clean cuts with ease using the Swanstrom Heart-Shape Cutter—the top-performing tool in its class. Manufactured in the USA, this cutter is built to deliver decades of consistent service.
-
The top and bottom plates, along with all punches, are made of S7 shock-resistant tool steel, through-hardened to 55 HRC for exceptional durability.
Precision and Performance
The Swanstrom Shape Cutter features precision-ground punches that produce smooth edges with minimal cleanup. Tight tolerances between the punches and the spring-loaded die plate ensure clean cuts while extending the tool’s service life.
The die plate securely clamps metal in place, preventing distortion and keeping your hands safe. Its easy-open design allows for quick adjustments to accommodate various materials. For best results, place a shim of equal thickness to your cutting material on the opposite side to maintain balance.
Versatility
-
Designed for soft materials up to 16 gauge (1.29mm) when using a mallet and up to 10 gauge (2.59mm) when using a Bonny Doon hydraulic press.
-
Use a urethane pad (1/16" thick, 95 durometer; not included) under the cutters to reduce noise, support the punches, protect your work surface, and ensure crisp cuts.
