Custom Shears for Composites

Wolff makes custom scissors designed specifically for cutting composite material, such as carbon fiber, fiberglass, and Kevlar®. By adjusting the blade edge and angle to suit each material, we deliver tools that cut precisely and cleanly for longer, even on the toughest, most abrasive materials. 

Send us a swatch of your composite material, and we’ll craft a customized solution to meet your needs. In a hurry? Wolff can turn around custom orders in as little as 1-2 weeks. Only Wolff provides high-quality, specialized scissors to meet the demands of the composites industry.

How to Choose the Right Scissors for Composites

Shears used in composite applications need to be able to cut hard, tough, and highly abrasive materials. They also need to be durable enough to withstand cutting of both “wet” resin-impregnated materials as well as “dry” products and to slice through some of the toughest materials known to humanity.

Wolff offers specialized cutting solutions for this rapidly evolving industry, including our KAI® 700 scissor series, with an unmatched Rockford hardness rating. Talk to us about your composites cutting challenges. We’ll help give your product the edge it needs.

Scissors for Composites FAQ

What types of composite materials can your custom scissors cut effectively?

Our custom scissors are designed to cut through a wide range of composite materials, including carbon fiber, fiberglass, Kevlar®, and other advanced fabrics.

Can these scissors handle both wet (resin-impregnated) and dry composite fabrics?

Yes, we offer different blade types to handle both wet and dry composite fabrics, ensuring precise cuts through any material in any condition.

How do I maintain and clean my composite scissors, especially when cutting resin-impregnated materials?

Scissors used to cut resin-impregnated fabrics need to be cleaned in acetone to remove resin buildup. For this reason, we recommend only all-metal shears without plastic handles for most composite applications.
