Frequently asked questions
Do the Uni-Core Punches offer high-precision sampling?
Yes, the Harris Uni-Core Punches are specialized, high-precision tools designed for accurate and reliable tissue coring and sampling in demanding laboratory environments (histology, pathology, biomedical research).
Their precision and quality are ensured by several factors:
- Standardized Diameters: Punches are available in specific, precise diameters ranging from 1.00mm up to 6.00mm for exact, reproducible cuts.
- Optimal Performance: All tools are supplied in Factory New condition, guaranteeing peak cutting performance.
- Enhanced Sample Preparation: For the cleanest results, they are designed to be used with the corresponding Harris MicroPunch Cutting Mat (6” x 8” is available).
- Origin: These high-quality tools are manufactured in the USA.
Are replacement cutting mats available for the Harris MicroPunch?
Yes, the Harris™ Micro Punch Replacement Cutting Mat is available to ensure a continued clean and stable surface for punching.
What are the dimensions of the Harris MicroPunch Cutting Mat?

How does the cutting mat improve punch performance?
The Harris MicroPunch Cutting Mat is an essential accessory that optimizes performance and longevity when using the Harris Uni-Core Punches.
Its key benefits include:
- Preserving Tool Sharpness: The mat acts as a dedicated, sacrificial layer that protects the delicate tip of the Uni-Core punch upon piercing, thereby extending the life and maintaining the precision of the cutting edge.
- Ensuring Sample Consistency: It provides a stable surface necessary for maintaining proper alignment, which helps users achieve clean and consistent tissue cores for accurate sample preparation.
The standard Harris MicroPunch Cutting Mat measures 6” x 8”, and replacement mats are available to support continuous operational volume.
