The BaBylissPRO 4Artists SkeletonFX Japanese Steel T-Blade (FX707ZGSE) is the genuine 40 mm replacement T-blade for your SkeletonFX outlining trimmer, cut from Japanese steel with a 1.6 mm standard tooth and zero-gap adjustable. It is the native GunSteel blade, and a worn or dull blade is a quick swap back to crisp lines and clean edges. It fits the FX797, FX7870 and FX726 series trimmers.

Why replace the T-blade

A trimmer blade loses its edge over its working life, and once it does the lines start to catch and drag instead of dropping in clean. Fitting a fresh Japanese steel T-blade brings the outlining back to a crisp, defined edge. Because it is the genuine SkeletonFX blade, it seats and sets to zero-gap the way the trimmer was built to.

Key features

• A genuine Japanese steel SkeletonFX T-blade
• 40 mm T-blade with a 1.6 mm standard tooth
• Zero-gap adjustable for close outlining and lining
• The native GunSteel blade, matched to the GunSteel SkeletonFX trimmer
• Fits the FX797, FX7870 and FX726 series trimmers

What to expect

Fit the new blade, set it to zero-gap, and the trimmer drops back to the crisp lines and clean edges it gave when new. The 1.6 mm standard tooth suits everyday outlining, lining out and detail work around the beard and hairline.

Who it is for

• Barbers outlining and lining with a SkeletonFX trimmer
• Anyone running an FX797, FX7870 or FX726 trimmer whose blade has dulled
• GunSteel trimmer owners who want the genuine native blade

Who it is not for

• Clippers -- this is a trimmer T-blade, not a clipper cutting head
• Anyone who wants the deeper 2.0 mm tooth -- this is the standard 1.6 mm tooth
• The FX3 or FX8700 tools -- those take their own blades

Professional tip

Set the zero-gap carefully after fitting -- close enough for a sharp line, but not so close that the blades touch. Clean and oil the blade after each use so it stays running smooth and keeps its edge.

How to use

1. Switch the trimmer off.
2. Remove the old T-blade from the trimmer.
3. Fit the new Japanese steel T-blade and tighten the screws.
4. Set the zero-gap and oil the blade before you use it.

Care and maintenance

This blade fits the FX797, FX7870 and FX726 series trimmers -- clippers take a different cutting head. Clean and oil the blade after each use, keep the trimmer clean with SprayFX 4-in-1, and find oil and other spares on the BaBylissPRO accessories page.

• 40 mm T-blade with a 1.6 mm standard tooth
