Kevlar yarns.

Woven Kevlar.

"Special shears are required to cut Kevlar fabrics and tapes. These shears are designed to hold the fabric securely as the cutting blade does its job. If you look at these shear blades closely, you'll notice that there are serrations on the 'holding' edge and a sharp edge on the cutter. These shears are a specialty item and are therefore somewhat expensive, but they are well worth the price in reduced aggravation and improved results. Don't try to cut Kevlar without them." Composite Materials Handbook - M.M. Schwartz

“The 7000 series High-Carbon stainless steel shears

have an extra-long edge life and superior cutting efficiency.”

Blunted safety tips.

*Rockwell C-60. Blade hardness is measured on the Rockwell C scale. The higher the Rockwell number, the harder the steel. Harder steel tends to hold an edge longer, while softer steel is easier to sharpen. Most blade steels range from 55C to 61C scale. A hardness of 56C or less results in a blade edge that tends to wear rather quickly, requiring frequent sharpening. A hardness of 60C or above, results in blade edges that last the longest. 

NOTE
The blade edge angles on these Kai 7000 series shears have been
revised to cut technical textiles correctly and efficiently.

   If you are cutting composites, glass fibers or Kevlar, read this. 

Mineral fibers are very abrasive and tend to wear blade edges at a different angle than Kevlar does. While the same pair of scissors or shears used to cut fiberglass may be used to cut graphite (carbon) fibers, avoid using them to cut Kevlar. 

Keep Blades Clean. When finished cutting, always clean residual fibers from blades. Acetone is recommended for dissolving and removing prepreg resins, urethane, adhesives, epoxies etc.

                    FISKARS INDUSTRIAL SCISSORS AND SHEARS

Replacing solid metal handles with synthetic material results in shears that weigh considerably less. Lighter weight shears require less pressure to use. The fatigue, muscle ache and risk of neuromuscular disease associated with repeated cutting tasks is substantially reduced.  

Blades on Fiskars lightweight shears are made to industrial grade standards. Blade integrity, hardness and edge life, is as good or better than traditional solid steel models, regardless of weight or gauge. 

Note the new Fiskars Softgrip® cushion handle and Softouch® ergonomic models. Select Fiskars to accomplish cutting tasks more easily, accurately and efficiently, with less effort and greater safety. All models have adjustable pivot screws.

FISKARS fatigue reducing shears cut as well or better than solid steel models that weigh twice as much.
