|
| 1. |
Perfectly smooth sections from 0.1µm to 5µm. |
| 2. |
Hydrophilic diamond surface draws water to the edge for easy sectioning. |
| 3. |
Flawless, jewel quality diamond crystal, in sizes from 1 to 10mm. |
| 4. |
Maximum sectioning stability is assured by molecular welding between diamond and stainless steel shank. |
| 5. |
Highly inert and strong bonding material is unharmed by solvents. |
| 6. |
Eight different boat styles and seven types for all ultramicrotomy, cryo, histology and materials applications. |
|
 |
Quality Control / Guarantee
Passing through 25 quality control tests and 10 tests to reach flawless quality, you expect perfect sections free of striations and compression. Guarantee: You must be totally satisfied with the knife's performance.
|
 |
Smooth, Precise Cuts
Actual magnified photo of a ribbon being cut from a specimen block using one of our fine diamond knives. Notice the smoothness.
|
 |
Carefully Selected Materials
The diamond knives are produced from carefully selected jewel quality octahedral diamonds. Each crystal is cleaved along its natural lattice into several thin plates which are microscopically screened.
|
 |
Precision Workmanship
Each plate is welded onto a steel shank and following that is a high precision series of processes to lap and polish the diamond into what is unquestionably the sharpest cutting instrument made. The radius of the diamond knife edge is about 50 Ångstroms (5nm) or 30 carbon atoms and the entire length of its edge must be defect free to the same dimensions. Ultimately an exhaustive final sectioning test is performed through the entire length of the edge. Only if it is flawless is it approved for shipment and packed and sealed in its wood case.

Diamond Knife Cleaner
 |
Debris on the edge of a diamond knife will make sectioning difficult, create stress points and ruin sections. The Diamond Knife Cleaner is designed to clean diamond knives without any solid objects touching the knife edge.
Insert the knife into the special holder inside the Cleaner's lid. Place the lid on the beaker containing a mild cleaning solution, and select a time period. The cleaning action is a magnetic stirrer that automatically reverses direction twice each minute and has an 8-hour adjustable timer. A six position timer on the panel can be set to cycle from 15 minutes to 8 hours. The knife is in a reversed position - hanging firmly - during this cleaning operation. A knife base up to 9.5mm (3/8") wide is accommodated. Stirring speed: 1800rpm. 6 watts, 1/8A fuse.
Includes: Basic instrument, beaker, holder/cap, magnet and magnet guard.
Dimensions: 12cm long x 7.6cm wide x 6.4cm high (14cm with beaker in place) (4-3/4 x 3 x 2-1/2 or 5-1/2").
|
| An economy Cleaner Kit is also available which includes the accessory parts but not the main instrument (beaker, holder, cap, magnet and magnet guard) - for use with your magnetic stirrer. |

PELCO® Diamond Knife Cleaning Tools
Material specially developed for cleaning debris from diamond knives. Works also very well on sapphire knives, scalpel blades, microtome blades, Vibratome blades, diamond scribers and minitools. The PVA material wicks liquids instantaneously for fast and sure cleaning. The sponge type material stays rigid when using alcohol as cleaning fluid and assists in removing debris from the knife edge. When water is used the material becomes soft and a wiping cleaning action can be applied. May be used multiple times and the shape or size allows safe use. Available in two forms:
- wedged tip on a plastic holder (pk/20) for safest use.
- block with rounded ends (pk/5) 1-1/2 x 3/4 x 1/2" ( 38x18x13mm)
