The Diamond Trimming Tool:

For successful ultramicrotomy in biology and materials science, precise trimming is mandatory.

The Diatome trimming blades cryotrim 45 and cryotrim 20 will fulfil all your trimming requirements, allowing quick, easy and accurate trimming.

Due to the extreme sharpness of our diamond blades, less mechanical damage is applied to the sample during trimming.

Very shiny sample faces and precise sides are the result.

The CryoTrim 45 produces pyramidal sides with an inclined angle of 45° and the CryoTrim 20 produces pyramidal sides with an inclined angle of 20°.

Your benefits of working with Diatome

Sectioning tests with biological and material research specimens of all kinds.

We send you the sections along with the surfaced sample, a report on the results obtained and a recommendation of a suitable knife.

Complete discretion when working with proprietary samples.

A re-sharpened Diatome diamond knife demonstrates the same high quality as a new knife.

Even knives purchased in previous years can continue to be re-sharpened.

All knives can be reworked into another type of knife for no extra charge, e.g. ultra to cryo or 45° to 35°.

Whenever you exchange a knife we offer you a new Diatome.
