These transparent acrylic cutting pads are designed as essential replacement components for die-cutting and embossing machines with 9-inch openings. Each pad measures 8.7 x 12.6 x 0.12 inches with a 3mm thickness, providing the precise dimensions needed for standard large-format crafting equipment. The high-density acrylic construction delivers the necessary resistance for achieving optimal cutting pressure, whether used in a 13mm+3mm+3mm configuration for embossing or a 13mm+3mm+2mm setup for die-cutting applications. The crystal-clear transparency of these plates allows for accurate visual alignment of dies and materials before processing, eliminating placement errors during intricate projects. Manufactured from durable, weather-resistant acrylic material, these pads are engineered to withstand the intense pressure generated by both manual hand-crank and electric die-cutting systems while maintaining a smooth surface that resists deep warping over time. The plates accommodate various crafting materials including cardstock, foil, vellum, and fabric, depending on your machine's capabilities. This package includes two 3mm cutting pads, providing a complete replacement set for your crafting workspace. Compatible with manual and electric die-cutting machines featuring A4-sized openings, these plates serve as critical sandwich components for producing crisp, clean cuts in scrapbooking, card-making, and other paper crafting applications.
