Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. How to use Allpax gasket cutters?
A.
- Allpax gasket cutters have a cutter block with modular extension bars and an adaptable cutting blade. First, create a small hole in the centre of the gasket material to be cut.
- Now lay out the gasket material flat on the cutting board, put the central pin through the hole and insert it into a ferrule in the board.
- Set the blade to the desired depth of cut. Now loosen the knurled nut so that the blade can be adjusted to the desired outside diameter (OD).
- Add / remove extensions if required and position the extension tail onto the pin. While holding the pin with one hand, grip the block with the other hand and apply downward pressure by sweeping a circular pattern around the circumference of the gasket material.
- Now, remove excess material and adjust the cutter to the desired inner diameter (ID) and make another circular cut around that circumference.
- Finally, remove the finished flange gasket.
Q. Do I need a cutting board to use this ALLPAX AX4000 gasket cutter?
A. The cutting head is designed to cut directly on the gasket material, which eliminates the need for a cutting board.
