rotating cutting mat

Common materials listed include Plastic, PVC (polyvinyl chloride), Vinyl, and Acrylic. Some listings group Acrylic and Plastic together.

Many mats are described as 360° rotating and include rotation-focused features such as a non-slip rotating base that lightly suctions to the table and a scalloped or textured edge for fingertip rotation.

Typical markings include a 1" grid and 1/8" edge markings, with common angle guides at 30°, 45°, and 60°. Some double-sided models also include metric markings (centimeter and millimeter scales).

Rotating cutting mats are intended for rotary cutters (listed sizes include 28 mm and 45 mm pressure-sensitive rotary cutters) and can also be used with a straight-edge blade.

Double-sided mats typically have imperial markings (for example a 1" grid with 1/8" edge markings) on one side and metric markings (centimeter grid and millimeter edge markings) on the other, giving you both measurement systems and accompanying angle guides.
