Crain 303 Loop Pile Cutter

The height of the blade carrier is adjustable, enabling you to securely lock the beveled guide at the precise position required to follow along the rows.
Crain 303 Loop Pile Cutter
The cutter features dual blade pockets on both the left and right sides, with a large thumb knob that tightens to securely lock the blades in place. For optimal results, it is recommended to trim the carpet in the direction of the nap sweep. To begin, select a starting point on the left side of the seam and trim with the blade down on the left side of the cutter. Then, return to the same starting point on the right side of the carpet and trim with the blade down on the same (left) side of the cutter, moving along the seam in the same direction. This method replicates the standard spacing of the carpet's rows as done in the factory. If needed, for trimming both edges as closely as possible to the tufts, trim the right side of the seam with a blade down on the right side, and then retract the right blade and trim the left side with the left blade down.
Adjustable throat to precisely follow rows and trim close.
30 degree blade angle for clean cut.
