2UUL Hand Finish Blades S / E / X / Y (4 pcs)

Hand-finished blades wear with use, and replacing a whole handle set for one worn shape makes little sense. These 2UUL Hand Finish Blades come four to a pack, without handles, in shapes S, E, X or Y.

The letters match the shapes in 2UUL's DA11 Hand Finish SEXY blade set. The listing describes sharp blades for underfill cleaning, adhesive trimming and fine scraping on boards, made to fit a compatible handle.

When spare blades help

• A worn or chipped edge that tears the solder mask.

• A bent tip after prying under a shield.

• Underfill left around a chip.

• Adhesive residue on pads.

Fitting and use

Secure the blade fully in its handle before work. Use light pressure and short strokes, especially near traces. Clean residue off after each job and store blades so their edges don't touch other metal.

The listing doesn't state the shank size or which handles fit, so match the shape and check the photos against your existing handle. Keep a spare of the shape you use most, since a dull blade is more likely to slip and damage a pad. Swap the blade as soon as it stops cutting cleanly.
