Explore our selection of premium microtome blades, available in both high and low profile. Each blade is designed for the meticulous sectioning of a tissue specimen. No detail is too small to miss, making microtome blades the perfect choice for your precise laboratory needs. Each microtome blade we carry is expertly designed using a complex heating process and finished with high-quality polishing and coating techniques. This design leads to a seamless, smooth cut each and every time. 

Browse our blades to find the size, style and material required for your laboratory needs.

Microtome blades can generally be found in two profiles — high and low. High profile microtome blades are the thicker option, perfect for handling tougher material and cutting slightly larger sections. These blades are also extremely precise and ultra-sharp. High profile blades are often made from stainless steel, which contributes to their durability and long-lasting, razor-sharp finish.

Both high and low profile microtome blades can come in either a permanent or disposable form. The permanent variety has a longer shelf life yet must be sharpened periodically, while the disposable option offers premium convenience.

Low profile microtome blades provide a smaller, thinner blade perfect for cutting ultra-fine sections. While low profile blades are often crafted from stainless steel, some options may include unique coating and materials. 

Low profile blades can vary in length and often include unique features, like a honed or rounded edge and multiple facets. These features will affect the specifications of your section cut. As a result, we recommend taking a close look at the details of each blade and asking one of our specialists for guidance if needed.

Like the high profile variation, low profile microtome blades are easy to use and offer consistent cuts, reliable sharpness and a durable blade.
