The Roland Standard 45 is a carbide vinyl cutter blade with a 45 degree cutting angle and a 0.25mm offset for Roland cutters and compatible plotters. It is sold as a single blade or as a 5 pack.
When to use this blade
This is the everyday blade for a Roland. A 45 degree angle handles calendered and cast sign vinyl, standard lettering and print and cut contour work, and it is the blade most shops run for the bulk of their jobs. Step up to the Roland Sandblast 60 for thick or sandblast stencil material and heavy reflective. Use the Roland Reflective 45 for reflective sheeting, and the Roland Small Character 45 with its smaller 0.175mm offset for fine lettering and tight curves.
Compatibility and specs
Fits Roland cutters, and is also compatible with Allen Datagraph, Copan, GCC, Refine, Secabo, Seiki and Vinyl Express except Q Series. Angle 45 degrees, offset 0.25mm, carbide. This blade fits the PerfectCut Roland Blade Holder. Blade offset is the distance from the center of the blade shaft to the cutting tip, and the cutter or its software needs the same value entered so corners close cleanly. Set the offset to match this blade and check a small test cut before running a job. Replace the blade when corners stop meeting or vinyl begins tearing at the end of cut lines instead of separating cleanly.
