Flipper Platinum Scraper Replacement Blade - Stainless Steel
A dual-sided blade that flips over for a second scraping edge. This is the dedicated stainless steel replacement blade for the Flipper Platinum Scraper, fitting the Nano, 18" and 28" handles. It is for glass tanks only - fit a plastic card blade instead if the scraper is going anywhere near acrylic.
Key features
- Fits every Platinum Scraper length - one blade size fits the Nano, 18" and 28" handles.
- Dual-sided - flip it over for a fresh edge before the whole blade needs replacing.
- Corrosion-resistant stainless steel - holds an edge on stubborn, hardened algae that a plastic card blade struggles with.
- Glass only - sharper and more rigid than the plastic card option, but it will scratch acrylic.

Suitable for, and not suitable for
Suitable for: glass aquariums, on any Flipper Platinum Scraper handle length, especially stubborn coralline or hardened algae that a plastic card blade can't shift.
Not suitable for: acrylic tanks or acrylic sump baffles, where the stainless edge will scratch the surface. Fit a plastic card blade in the Platinum Scraper handle for acrylic instead.
Care and maintenance
Rinse the blade after use and dry it before storage to keep the stainless finish from spotting. Flip it to the second edge once the first side dulls, and replace the whole blade once both sides have lost their edge.
Goes well with
- Flipper Platinum Scraper - the handle this blade fits.
- Flipper Max Float up to 19mm glass - a magnetic cleaner for routine glass maintenance, with this blade in reserve for stubborn spots.
Warranty and delivery
Flipper does not publish a separate warranty term for replacement blades. Your rights under the Australian Consumer Law apply regardless of any manufacturer terms. This is a small, light item and ships at standard freight rates.
Common questions
Does this blade fit the Nano Platinum Scraper as well as the 18" and 28"?
Yes. One blade size fits all three Platinum Scraper handle lengths.
Can I use this blade on my acrylic tank?
No. It's stainless steel and will scratch acrylic. Use a plastic card in the scraper handle for acrylic surfaces instead.
What does "dual-sided" mean here?
The blade has a working edge on both sides. When one side dulls, flip it in the handle for a fresh edge before you need to buy a replacement.
How do I know when to replace it rather than flip it?
Once both sides have lost their edge and start dragging instead of scraping cleanly, it's time to replace the blade.
