Easy single- and double-step shaping
The EMS Carbon Rod Shaper is an ergonomic and space-saving electric carbon and graphite rod sharpener that provides easy, consistent, and efficient rod shaping for high-capacity labs. Its cutting head consists of two tungsten carbide blades and a top guide bearing.
