Frequently asked questions
Common questions about KLEVER from 3G Electric.
What materials are KLEVER safety cutter handles made from?
KLEVER safety cutter handles are available in carbon steel (e.g., ECO-200XC-20EX) and stainless steel (e.g., KS-101SS-W). Carbon steel handles typically have a black finish, while stainless steel handles are silver. Handle surfaces can be textured or plain, depending on the model. The choice affects corrosion resistance and grip in wet or oily environments.
Are KLEVER replacement heads interchangeable across different cutter models?
KLEVER replacement heads are model-specific. For example, the KCJ-XH-35X (single-sided, 2 3/4 in) is compatible with cutters using that head design, while the KCJ-XH-20 (double-sided, 2 in) fits a different cutter body. Always verify the manufacturer part number (MPN) against your existing cutter to ensure compatibility. 3G Electric lists the MPN for each replacement head to facilitate matching.
What does the antimicrobial feature in KLEVER replacement heads do?
Antimicrobial KLEVER replacement heads (e.g., KCJ-XH-35X, KCJ-XH-20X) incorporate an additive that inhibits the growth of bacteria, mold, and mildew on the head surface. This is relevant for food processing, healthcare, or cleanroom environments where tool hygiene is a concern. The antimicrobial property does not affect cutting performance or blade sharpness.
How does the KLEVER blade disposal unit work?
The KLEVER blade disposal unit (model A48001-0) is a recycling kit designed to collect used safety cutters. It consists of a corrugate and reinforced polyethylene container with a floor stand, capable of holding up to 600 cutters. Once full, the unit can be sealed and shipped for recycling, reducing waste and improving workplace safety by eliminating loose blade accumulation.
Is the KLEVER KS-101SS-W safety cutter suitable for food industry use?
Yes, the KLEVER KS-101SS-W is NSF certified, indicating it meets standards for materials and design that are safe for use in food handling and processing areas. Its stainless steel construction resists corrosion and is easy to clean. The single-hook design with automatic blade retraction reduces injury risk during repetitive cutting tasks.
What pack quantities are available for KLEVER safety cutters and replacement heads?
KLEVER safety cutters are typically sold in 5-packs (e.g., KS-101SS-W) or 10-packs (e.g., ECO-200XC-20EX). Replacement heads come in 12-packs (single-sided) or 25-packs (double-sided). Bulk ordering reduces per-unit cost and ensures consistent tool availability across shifts. 3G Electric can provide pricing for larger quantities upon request.
