Product information "GogiPet PREMIUM A5 blade 3 (12 mm) coarse"

GogiPet PREMIUM A5 Blade 3 with 12 mm

GogiPet Premium Snap On Blade 3 with 12 mm cutting length.

The GogiPet® Premium Blade 3 with coarse teeth is ideal for fluffy, voluminous coats such as those of poodles, bichons, and similar breeds. Blade #3 does not flatten the coat against the body and therefore resembles a scissor cut. It is also a great alternative if you're not confident with scissoring.
In grooming salons, the Size 3 Snap On blade is popular for alternative cuts during the cooler seasons, for breeds like Bearded Collie, Bichon Frise, Bobtail, Bolonka Zwetna, Briard, Cairn Terrier, Coton de Tulear, Dandie Dinmont Terrier, Doodles, Golden Retriever, Havanese, Kerry Blue Terrier, Labrador Retriever, Lagotto, Lakeland Terrier, Newfoundland, Poos, Portuguese Water Dog, Schnauzer, Scottish Terrier, Sealyham Terrier, Shih Tzu, West Highland White Terrier, Yorkshire Terrier, and similar dog breeds.

Premium Blade with Ceramic Cutting Blade and Titanium Coating

GogiPet Premium Blades set new standards for A5 blades. All GogiPet Snap On blades are made of ice-hardened steel, which is exceptionally hard and promises impressive durability.

GogiPet Premium Snap On Blades feature extra-thick ceramic cutting blades refined with a titanium coating. These A5 blades, developed specifically for GogiPet Premium, combine reduced heat generation, long-lasting sharpness, corrosion resistance, and optimal glide of ceramic blades with the robustness of steel.

Replace GogiPet Premium Cutting Blades Instead of Sharpening

A high-quality sharpening service is costly and time-consuming. That's why GogiPet offers an innovative solution with its premium ceramic cutting blades: instead of sending the A5 blade for sharpening, you can simply replace the dull cutting blade yourself and continue working immediately.

Professional Snap On Blade

The blades with the clip-on system fit all common clippers with the standard Snap On blade system, also known as the A5 blade system.

Snap On Blades with A5 Blade System

What is a Snap On Blade?

This blade is known under various names such as Snap-On blade, A5 blade, or clip blade, but it is essentially the same and can be flexibly used by different manufacturers. This gives you the freedom to choose the blade with the best price-performance ratio, independent of the brand. Apart from oiling and cleaning, the Snap-On blade is virtually maintenance-free and has become a proven standard. Small animal clippers with proprietary blade systems, on the other hand, often tie you to a specific brand – something to consider when purchasing a new clipper.

A5 Blades with or without “F”?

From Size 7 (3.2 mm) and up, Snap-On blades are available with or without the “F” designation. Blades without “F” (skip-tooth) have coarser teeth – essentially every second tooth is missing – which allows easier penetration of the coat, especially if it's not perfectly smooth or mat-free. For finishing, i.e. the final clipping pass, a blade with the “F” (full-tooth) designation is recommended, as it combs and smooths the coat while cutting for a particularly fine result. For shorter blades, the tooth structure is described individually, as they feature a special design.

How Does a Blade Work?

In essence, a blade behaves like a comb. It can only cut where it can glide through the coat. That means with matted fur, you can only cut to about 5 mm or shorter. Cutting directly into mats is technically not possible, as the blades have no entry point.

Dog Groomer Vienna Tip:

To minimize wear on blades and maintain cutting and gliding performance, it's recommended to oil the blades every 10 minutes. The easiest way is with an oil and cooling spray: just spray briefly on the blade and continue working!

Upon delivery, small hairs may be visible, as each GogiPet blade is factory-tested on sample material. This does not indicate a used blade.

Small hairs at delivery are possible, as each GogiPet A5 blade is individually tested at the factory.
