    How to Cut a COB LED Strip<\/h1>\n

    If you need to know how to cut a COB LED strip<\/strong>, start by finding the printed cut marks. Most COB LED strips can only be cut at these marked points. Therefore, do not cut between marks unless the product is clearly labeled as free-cut or cut-anywhere.<\/p>\n

    Also, remember that cutting is only the first step. After you cut, you may need to test the segment, reconnect it, protect the copper pads, or reseal the end if the strip is waterproof.<\/p>\n

    Where to Cut a COB LED Strip and What to Do After Cutting<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    You can cut most COB LED strips only at the marked cut points. These marks often use a scissor icon or printed line near copper pads. After cutting, test the segment before final mounting.<\/p>\n

    Cut only on the printed cut line or scissor mark.<\/td>\nDo not cut between marks unless the datasheet allows it.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    Keep the cut straight and protect the copper pads.<\/td>\nDo not crush or tear the strip with dull tools.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    Test the cut segment before installing it in a profile.<\/td>\nDo not hide the strip first and troubleshoot later.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    Reseal the cut end if the strip is IP-rated.<\/td>\nDo not assume waterproofing remains intact after cutting.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n

    Micro workflow<\/h3>\n
      \n
    1. First, power off the strip and confirm the marked cut point.<\/li>\n
    2. Next, cut straight on the mark and keep the copper pads usable.<\/li>\n
    3. Then, bench-test the segment before final mounting.<\/li>\n
    4. Finally, if the strip is waterproof, reseal the cut end and test again.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
