Foam Cutter Set 3-in-1 Hot Wire for Styrofoam Polystyrene

A 3-in-1 foam cutter set for cutting, shaping and detailing polystyrene and Styrofoam with controlled heat. It includes three quick-change plug-in tips, making it useful for straight cuts, shaped sections and finer decorative work on foam materials.

Used for hobby craft projects, decorative mouldings and contouring work, this electric hot wire tool suits anyone working with foam sheets, blocks or shaped pieces. It can help when trimming material to size, forming curves, cutting recesses or adding engraved detail, whether for modelling, displays, craft work or similar workshop tasks where a cleaner finish is needed than a standard blade can give.

The supplied tips include a hot wire frame, hot knife tip and engraver tip, each tailored for polystyrene foam cutting. Quick-change fitting makes it easier to swap between different jobs without setting up another tool, which is useful when moving from rough shaping to finer detail work. Pre-heat times vary by tip, with the hot wire ready in around 30 seconds, the hot knife in 60 seconds and the engraver in 120 seconds. The set is supplied with an electrical safety approved 5V adaptor with 230V input and DC 5.0V 2.0A output. Tip temperatures and power levels are matched to the different tasks, helping keep foam cutting controlled and more consistent during repeated use.
