Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I choose a 60mm blade over a 45mm blade? The 60mm blade has a larger circumference, which gives it a much deeper cutting reach. While the 45mm is great for everyday curves and standard cottons, the 60mm is specifically designed to roll over very thick materials (like batting or foam) and large stacks of fabric with significantly less effort.
Will these replacement blades fit my Olfa or Fiskars 60mm cutter? Yes! The Creative Grids 60mm replacement blades are designed with a universal center hole, making them fully compatible with Fiskars, Olfa, Clover, and almost all other standard 60mm rotary cutter handles.
How do I safely throw away my old 60mm blades? When you swap out a blade, simply drop the old, dull one into the back of the provided plastic storage case. Once you have used all five fresh blades, securely tape the hard plastic case shut before tossing it in your household trash.
Why are the blades slightly oily when I open the pack? To prevent rust and oxidation during long-term storage and transit, the blades are shipped with a very thin layer of protective machine oil. Carefully wipe the blade with a scrap piece of cotton fabric before cutting your actual project.
