Designed as the final hand-finishing step after trimming or routing an edge, this compact professional scraper makes it possible to remove the last traces of edge overhang, smooth away cutter marks and create a clean radius on thin plastic edging. The scraper is manufactured from \u003cstrong\u003esolid carbide\u003c\/strong\u003e for excellent durability and wear resistance, while its carefully engineered sharpness and angle of attack help prevent damage to the workpiece surface when correctly used. One flat side is provided for removing projecting edging and adhesive residue from the panel face, while three precisely formed radii of \u003cstrong\u003eR1, R1.5 and R2 mm\u003c\/strong\u003e correspond to common edging requirements.

precision hand-finishing tool used after the main machining or trimming process. Instead of removing large quantities of material, it removes very small projections, cutter marks and imperfections to leave the edge smooth, flush and visually finished.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy scrape an edge after routing?\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eA router or trimming machine can bring edge banding extremely close to its finished dimensions, but slight machining marks may remain. These small marks can be particularly noticeable on plastic edging under reflected light. Carefully scraping the edge removes these imperfections and produces a smoother final surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat does solid carbide offer?\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eSolid carbide combines excellent hardness with high wear resistance. For a precision scraper, this allows the working edges to retain their geometry and sharpness for considerably longer than a softer cutting material, making it particularly suitable for repeated professional edge finishing.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat are the R1, R1.5 and R2 profiles?\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe scraper incorporates three different curved working profiles: \u003cstrong\u003e1.00 mm, 1.50 mm and 2.00 mm radii\u003c\/strong\u003e. These profiles allow the user to refine and round commonly used edge-band thicknesses while maintaining a consistent radius along the finished edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy are three radii useful?\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003ePlastic edging is available in different thicknesses, and the appropriate finished radius changes accordingly. Incorporating three common radii into one compact scraper eliminates the need to carry several separate finishing tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat is the flat side used for?\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe flat working side is intended for removing small amounts of edge-band overhang and adhesive residue from the flat panel face. It allows these imperfections to be removed manually and accurately without having to perform another machine operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy does the scraper have a cord?\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe attached cord is not simply a carrying loop. Festool designed it to act as a \u003cstrong\u003esupport during use\u003c\/strong\u003e. Resting the scraper against the cord helps establish the optimum working angle and provides more consistent guidance along the edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch4\u003eRemoving cutter impact marks\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe three shaped edges are useful not only for producing a radius but also for smoothing the small machining or impact marks that may be left by the cutter during routing. A few controlled scraping passes can produce a visibly cleaner and more uniform finished edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch4\u003eEspecially useful with the CONTURO system\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eAfter edge material has been applied, trimmed and routed, the scraper provides the final manual finishing stage. This makes the ZK HW 45\/45 a particularly useful companion to the Festool CONTURO edge-banding workflow where a high-quality finished edge is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c!-- === Pro Tips TAB === --\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"tip-products\"\u003e\r\n\u003ch4\u003ePro Tips\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003eIdentify the appropriate \u003cstrong\u003eR1, R1.5 or R2\u003c\/strong\u003e profile before starting rather than switching radii midway along the same edge.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003eUse the attached cord as Festool intends: rest the scraper against it to help maintain the optimum working angle.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003eWork with light, controlled strokes.
