Heiniger Size 000 Detachable Clipper Blade 0.5mm Swiss Precision Cut

The workhorse guideline blade.

The Heiniger Size 000 detachable blade cuts at 0.5mm, the length most barbers use to set a bald guideline without going fully to skin. It is short enough to read as clean on camera and long enough to be forgiving on uneven scalps and scars. Swiss precision grinding gives it the smooth, cool cutting action you need when the same blade is doing the first pass on every head.

• Clean guidelines: 0.5mm sets a crisp bald line that still leaves a margin for error.
• Forgiving on scalp: slightly longer than skin blades, so bumps and scars are less exposed.
• Smooth cutting action: precision-ground teeth glide rather than snag.
• Cool through volume: less friction means fewer breaks to let the blade drop temperature.
• Tool-free changes: snaps on and off between clients.

Questions Barbers Ask

Is 000 the same as a zero gap?

Not quite. A zero-gapped adjustable clipper cuts very close, but a 000 detachable is a fixed 0.5mm — more predictable and repeatable on every client.

Where does this sit in a fade?

Typically as the first or second step from the bottom, above your skin blade and below the guarded lengths.

How do I keep it cutting cleanly?

Oil before and after each use, and brush out clippings. Most blades that seem blunt are just dry and clogged.

Why Barbers Love It

It is the blade that stays on the machine. Short enough for clean work, long enough that a nervous client's scalp does not end up shining.
