Stanley 11-988 Utility Knife Blade 100 Pack Carbon Steel

Product Description

The STANLEY 11-988 is a carbon steel utility knife blade sold in a 100-pack, designed for professional cutting tasks across trades and job-site applications. Each blade measures 1-7/8 inches in overall length and features a rounded edge profile for controlled, precise cuts. Carbon steel construction delivers reliable edge retention for a wide range of materials including insulation, sheathing, strapping, and packaging. This blade is a standard consumable stocked by electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general contractors who rely on utility knives as everyday trade tools.

The 11-988 blades are suited for residential and commercial job-site use wherever a standard utility knife is part of the workflow. Common applications include cutting duct insulation wrap, vapor barrier film, cable sheathing, cardboard, and roofing underlayment. The 100-piece pack quantity is practical for stocking a service van, shop, or job trailer to minimize downtime from blade changes. Installers working in HVAC, electrical rough-in, and plumbing typically keep utility blades on hand as a standard consumable.

Installation Notes

Utility knife blade replacement should be performed by a trained tradesperson following safe blade-handling practices. Always retract or disable the knife mechanism before changing blades, and use a blade removal tool or folded cardboard to handle spent blades safely. Dispose of used blades in a puncture-resistant sharps container per applicable job-site safety requirements. Do not use a damaged or chipped blade, as reduced edge integrity can cause slipping and injury.
