The Anvil on your shear has two edges: a 1/32" (0.75mm) narrow edge and a 3/16" (4.5mm) wide edge. Either edge can be used according to the support needed to make a clean cut. (Some soft-backed products require the wider Anvil edge). Anvils can wear out after extended use (especially the narrow side), allowing material to ‘kick’ when cut and reducing cut quality. Replace your Anvil periodically for optimum cutting performance.
