Andis Master Cordless Li Replacement Fade Blade – Carbon Steel, 74045

Skin-close fade blade for the Andis Master Cordless, sized 00000 to 000.

This is Andis item 74045, the factory carbon steel fade blade for the Master Cordless Li clipper (model 12660). It adjusts from 00000 to 000 — a tighter range than the standard Master Cordless blade — which is what puts a bald fade within reach of the machine you already own instead of forcing you to pick up a shaver.

• 00000 to 000 range: the fade blade's whole reason to exist. You start closer than the standard blade can go.
• Carbon steel: the material Andis specifies for Master blades, chosen for edge retention under professional volume.
• Genuine Andis part: item 74045, so the fit and the lever travel are exactly what the clipper was built around.
• Adjustable on the lever: move between settings mid-cut instead of stopping to change blades.
• Restores a worn machine: a Master Cordless that has started pulling usually needs a blade, not a rebuild.

Questions Barbers Ask

How is this different from the 74040?

Range. The 74045 fade blade adjusts 00000 to 000; the standard 74040 adjusts 000 to 1. The fade blade starts closer to the skin, the standard blade covers more length.

Will it fit a corded Master?

No. Andis lists this blade for the Master Cordless clipper, model 12660. Corded Master clippers take a different blade.

Is carbon steel better than stainless for a clipper blade?

Carbon steel takes and holds a keener edge, which is why Andis uses it on the Master line. It needs oiling and drying — leave it wet and it will spot.

Why Barbers Love It

The Master Cordless already has the torque; the fade blade is what lets it finish the fade rather than hand it off. Barbers who swap the 74045 in stop reaching for a second machine on the bottom third of the head.
