Cardinal® Rubber Slitters
Model R52
Heavy-duty Rubber Slitting
The very dense characteristics of rubber and some plastics demand a cutting machine with extremely high torque and very low knife speed. Eastman's RS2 keeps friction and heat build-up at a minimum while providing enough power to slice through up to 1.5in.(3.81cm) of single ply 80 durometer rubber. An optional Strip Gauge is available for widths from .375in.(.95cm) to 11in.(27.9cm).
