Tools
Each tool comes with blade cleaning brush, component removal and insertion tool and instructions. The tool you order will come with a blade set, fiber guide and fiber guide lock ONLY if you order it at the time you order the tool. See charts below for options and catalog numbers.
Blade Sets
All blade set catalog numbers are for two cutter blades packed in a matching set with corresponding fiber lock. They must be snapped apart before installation. They must only be used with their matching half to maintain precise cutting and stripping. Do not mix and match sets as this will decrease the accuracy of the blades and possibly damage them. See charts below for options and catalog numbers.

Using the charts below determine which tool(s) you would like to order and write them down along with which blade sets and fiber guides you would like with your Micro Electronics, Inc. tool before you call. Our telephone number is 508-761-9161.
