The Cricut StandardGrip Mat is carefully engineered for a wide range of medium-weight materials and is perfect for heavy cardstock, patterned paper, vinyl, iron-on and more. Each mat works as an interface between your material and your Cricut machine and holds your material in place as it cuts. The mat provides the best possible adhesion and the longest possible life. With two mats included, you can load one in your Cricut machine for cutting as you prep the next. These mats are ideal for use with Cricut Maker® and Cricut Explore® cutting machines. Tips: Keep the clear film cover on the mat when storing to keep mat free from paper scraps and dust. Use the scraper to scrape away excess pieces and the spatula to carefully remove cut images. To ensure best performance, use the recommended material types on the mats.
