The Vikan 100mm Nylon Blade is a durable, hard-wearing cleaning scraper designed for use in food and beverage manufacturing environments. As a practical alternative to stainless steel blades, its nylon construction is suitable for use on sensitive surfaces where scratching or damage must be avoided.
Ideal for hygienically removing stubborn, dried-on and burnt-on food residues, this 100mm nylon scraper blade is particularly effective on smooth surfaces contaminated with pastry, chocolate, dough, burnt food and other difficult deposits.
The hard nylon blade provides effective scraping performance while helping protect equipment, machinery and sensitive conveyor belts from scratches. For use on hot surfaces, the blade can withstand temperatures up to 175°C (347°F) when used intermittently for a maximum of 2 minutes at a time.
The blade is compatible with Vikan handles, allowing it to form part of a flexible, colour-coded cleaning system for professional food production facilities.
Effective cleaning is a critical part of a HACCP-based food safety management system. Selecting the appropriate cleaning tool for each surface can help food manufacturers maintain effective cleaning procedures while reducing the risk of equipment damage and potential contamination.
The Vikan 100mm Nylon Blade can form part of a documented, colour-coded cleaning system, helping operators use designated equipment within appropriate production or hygiene zones.
Its durable nylon construction and hygienic design make it well suited to demanding food manufacturing and food processing environments, where cleaning performance, equipment protection and hygiene control are important.
For sites operating to recognised food safety standards such as BRCGS, colour-coded cleaning equipment can also support documented hygiene procedures and site-specific foreign-body and cross-contamination controls.
Why Choose a Nylon Blade Instead of Stainless Steel?
Where equipment or surfaces are susceptible to scratching, a hard nylon scraper can provide a useful alternative to stainless steel. The Vikan 100mm Nylon Blade is designed to deliver effective scraping action while helping protect sensitive surfaces.
This makes it particularly useful for conveyor belts, food-processing equipment, and other smooth surfaces where surface damage could affect hygiene or cleaning performance.
