Stanley 11-983A Large Hook Blade with Dispenser

Product Description

The STANLEY 11-983A is a large hook blade designed for use with compatible Stanley utility knives. The hook blade profile allows the cutting edge to engage material from beneath or around a curved surface, making it well suited for tasks such as stripping insulation from cable, cutting rope, slitting shrink wrap, and trimming roofing underlayment. This package includes a dispenser for organized blade storage and safe handling. Electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general trade professionals keep hook blades on hand as a standard part of their utility knife kit.

The 11-983A is used across residential and commercial job sites wherever a standard straight blade is not practical for the cut. Common applications include stripping wire insulation during rough-in or service work, cutting banding on material bundles, and slitting flexible duct wrap or pipe insulation. The included dispenser makes it convenient to store and dispense blades safely without loose blades in a tool pouch or box.

Installation Notes

Blade replacement and handling should be performed by a qualified trade professional following safe blade-change procedures. Always retract or unload the utility knife before changing blades. Use the dispenser to load and remove blades — never handle loose blades with bare hands. Dispose of used blades in an approved sharps or blade disposal container per job-site safety requirements.
