 Shrink Wrapping Knife - Buying Guide

There are many industrial knives on the market. However, these of features will make your scaffold shrink wrapping jobs more successful.

• Make sure the knife you are buying has a blade that is robust enough for cutting through multiple layers of shrink wrap (such as when cutting shrink wrap from a roll).
• Check the knife has a secure point for attaching a safety lanyard. When working at height it is important to ensure the knife is secured against being accidentally dropped from the scaffolding.
• Some knives are available with a ‘guarded blade’ that completely protects against accidental cuts. Although this type will only cut through a single sheet thickness of scaffold wrap, they can be useful for sites where the use of open blades is not allowed.
