Carl Mfg CUI16122 Cutting Mats Rotary Trimmer Pack of 2

Product Description

The CARL MFG CUI16122 is a pack of two replacement cutting mats designed for 12-inch rotary trimmers. Each mat is constructed from sturdy gray PVC, providing a firm, protective surface that absorbs blade contact and extends blade life. The mat surface supports straight, precise cuts across a range of materials including paper, cardstock, and similar sheet media. These replacement mats are a consumable maintenance item installed by office staff, teachers, print shop technicians, and light-production professionals when an existing mat shows scoring, warping, or surface degradation that affects cut quality.

These mats are intended for 12-inch rotary trimmer units and are sold as a two-pack, making them a practical stocking item for high-use environments. Typical applications include classroom paper cutting, document preparation, crafting, and print finishing tasks where a clean, consistent cutting surface is required. The gray PVC construction resists surface damage from repeated blade passes better than thinner or lower-density mat materials.

Key Features

• Gray PVC construction provides a dense, durable cutting surface
• Sized for 12-inch rotary trimmer beds

Installation Notes

Replacement cutting mats are a tool-free swap on most rotary trimmer models. Remove the existing mat from the trimmer bed according to the trimmer manufacturer's guidance before installing the new mat. Ensure the mat lies flat and fully seats in any retention channels or alignment slots on the trimmer base. Do not cut on a mat that shows deep grooving or warping, as surface irregularities will reduce cut accuracy and accelerate blade wear.
