Electric Shaver Foil Screen (IEC 60335-2-8) is used for forming the thin perforated foil that guides hairs to the oscillating cutter of foil shavers and trimmers.
Thickness: 0.04–0.05 mm sets closeness; thinner is closer but less durable.
Hole pattern: Hex for short stubble, slot and round holes for longer hairs.
Material: Electroformed nickel or nickel-cobalt for hardness and precise holes.
Materials
Standard supply is stainless steel 304; the material column in the table and the drawing options show the exact grade for each size. Other alloys and finishes can be quoted to your drawing.
Fitting & Care
Never press the foil with fingers; it dents easily.
Clean with the supplied brush on the cutter side only.
Common Mistakes
Pressing hard while shaving, which tears the foil.
Replacing foil but not cutter, which wears the new foil quickly.
When Electric Shaver Foil Screen Is Not the Right Choice
Not suitable for long hair without a trimmer; foils only accept short stubble.
Electric Shaver Foil Screen is made to order as finished parts. Indicative pricing starts from about US$0.95 per piece for a standard size at production quantity; the final price depends on size, material, finish, tooling and order volume.

How often should a shaver foil be replaced?
About every 12–18 months, or when you feel pulling or see holes.
Why are shaver foils made of nickel?
Electroforming creates very thin, hard foils with precise hole shapes.
Can I replace just the foil?
Yes, but replacing foil and cutter together gives the best shave.
