Knife for mineral wool MODECO MN-63-067 — blade length 280 mm

Knife for mineral wool MODECO MN-63-067 — blade length 280 mm is a manual cutting tool designed for precise trimming and shaping of insulation materials such as mineral wool and glass wool. The 280 mm straight blade provides a long cutting edge for clean, continuous cuts on insulation batts and rolls. The tool is intended for on-site use in construction and renovation, enabling accurate fitting of thermal and acoustic insulation around structural elements.

Advantages

The knife features a long, rigid blade that reduces the need for multiple passes when cutting thick insulation, improving work speed and cutting uniformity. Its ergonomic handle offers a reliable grip for controlled handling during repetitive tasks. The simple, robust design minimises maintenance and is well suited to rough jobsite conditions. The straight blade geometry supports both trimming and shaping operations with predictable, straight cuts.

Suitable for

• Cutting mineral wool and glass wool batts and rolls
• Trimming insulation around windows, pipes and structural openings
• Shaping thermal and acoustic insulation to fit irregular surfaces
• On-site insulation installation and renovation tasks

Key specifications

• Blade length: 280 mm
• Blade type: straight cutting edge suitable for fibrous insulation
• Tool type: manual hand knife for insulation materials
• Primary materials processed: mineral wool, glass wool
• Intended use: construction and renovation insulation work

How to use

Place the insulation material on a stable surface and measure the cut line according to the required dimensions. Hold the knife with a firm grip and use steady, even strokes along the marked line to achieve a straight cut. For thicker sections, make controlled multiple passes rather than applying excessive force in a single stroke. Always keep the blade clean from fibre buildup to maintain cutting performance.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as gloves, eye protection and a dust mask when cutting mineral wool. Store the knife in a dry place and inspect the blade regularly; replace or sharpen the blade as needed to maintain safe, accurate cutting. Avoid cutting other hard materials that could damage the blade.
