Siser Juliet and Romeo: 45°, 60° or Deep Cut blade?

These cutters share blade types and a holder, but their replacement cutting strips have different widths.

Compare buying options →

Siser lists its 45-degree blade for common HTV, vinyl, cardstock and lightweight work. The 60-degree blade suits thicker specialty materials, while the separately named 60-degree Deep Cut blade is another product for tougher material.

All three blade types use the Siser Blade Holder. Check whether you need a cutting edge or the holder itself before adding another complete accessory to the order.

Read the degree and the full product name

The standard 60-degree blade and the 60-degree Deep Cut blade are separate references. The angle alone does not distinguish them. Use the manufacturer name and SKU when comparing packs.

Set the blade exposure before changing force

Siser's holder uses an adjustment and locking ring, and a magnet holds the blade. Follow the Juliet or Romeo manual when inserting or ejecting a sharp blade. Keep exposure appropriate for the material rather than extending the blade as far as it will go.

Use the material preset as a starting point and make a small test cut. If the blade cuts the backing or the mat deeply, stop and reassess the exposure and settings before sending a full job.

Order the mat or strip for the actual job

Light-tack and high-tack mats hold different material groups. A mat can also hold scraps that are too small to load directly. Matless cutting requires a suitable backed material and the loading procedure in the manual.

Replacement cutting strips are width-specific: SNACS12 is the 12-inch Juliet variant, while SNACS24 is the 24-inch Romeo variant. The shared blade system does not make those strips the same order.

Choose a product

Keep the 45°, 60° and Deep Cut blade identities separate. The exact Amazon choice verified here is the holder; it does not include or identify a replacement cutting edge.
