Light A3 Trimmer For Office And Craft Cutting

Carl pitch the RT218 at both commercial and craft users: a lightweight A3 rotary trimmer that takes Carl's interchangeable craft blades as well as a straight one.

It cuts up to 10 sheets at a time over a 462mm cutting length, long enough for the long side of A3 with room to spare. The blue base is metal, strong but light enough to carry to a craft table, and it is marked with metric graduations and paper size guides.

The blade cuts with a rotary action. According to the parts panel printed on the base, the spare blade is the B-01 straight blade, craft blades are also available, and the replacement cutting mat is the RM-18/2 pack of two. Each mat is reversible and can be swapped end for end, giving four cutting positions before it is used up. ACCO's photos also show a storage tray for spare craft blades.

Pick up replacement blades, compare A3 paper cutters or see the rest of Carl.

FAQs

ACCO rate it at up to 10 sheets at a time. For bigger stacks look at the DC230N, rated at 32 sheets.
Yes, with a Carl craft blade fitted. The base label lists B-01 straight as the spare blade and notes that craft blades are also available. We stock the B-01 and the B-02 perforating blade.
ACCO do not say. One photo shows a tray holding B-02, B-04 and B-06 blades, but the listing only confirms the trimmer and its blade, so assume extra blades are sold separately.
The label says the mat is reversible. Swap it left to right or turn it over to use all four positions, then fit a new RM-18/2 mat.
Made in China, as printed on the base label.
