Check the fit

A three-inch circle limits the area one plug covers. Check which backing or repair accessories you need independently. The product photo illustrates the cutter from two views rather than establishing a bundle of repair supplies.

When to choose it

Choose this cutter if the damaged area can be enclosed within a three-inch circle and you have a donor piece of matching carpet. The pivot locates the circle and the blades cut its perimeter, so confirm the cut size and pile direction before beginning.
