No.1.5 Guide Comb with a 4.5mm Cutting Length

The WAHL Plastic Comb Attachment No.1.5 provides a stated 4.5mm cutting length.

This intermediate guide size is particularly valuable when a No.1 is slightly too short but a No.2 leaves more length than required, giving professionals another level of control during precision clipper work.

Ideal for Professional Fade Work

The No.1.5 attachment can be particularly useful when creating fades, where small differences in cutting length can have a noticeable effect on the finished blend.

By providing a 4.5mm guide between neighbouring guard sizes, it can help professionals soften visible lines and create a more gradual transition through the haircut.

Perfect for Tapering

The attachment is also well suited to tapering around the sides, back and neckline.

Professionals can move progressively through several guide lengths, using the No.1.5 as an intermediate stage to create smoother graduation between shorter and longer sections.

Useful for Blending Between Guards

One of the biggest advantages of a half-size guide comb is its ability to bridge the gap between standard attachment grades.

The 4.5mm No.1.5 guide gives barbers another option when a visible weight line remains between neighbouring lengths, helping refine the blend without taking away excessive hair.

Controlled Short Cutting

The No.1.5 attachment is equally useful for clients who want a consistent short result of approximately 4.5mm.

When securely fitted to a compatible Wahl taper clipper, it helps maintain a controlled distance between the blade and scalp throughout suitable sections.

Helps Maintain Consistency

Guide combs allow professionals to work efficiently while keeping the cutting length more predictable.

This can be particularly helpful across larger areas of short hair where maintaining an even finish by eye alone would be more difficult.

A Useful Intermediate Cutting Length

Standard clipper sets often rely heavily on whole-number guard sizes, but intermediate guides can make precision blending considerably easier.

The No.1.5 attachment provides an additional step between shorter guards, helping professionals fine-tune fades and graduated cuts.

Ideal for Regular Barbering

For professionals carrying out fades and short cuts throughout the working day, a dependable No.1.5 guard can become an essential part of the cutting kit.

Its versatile length makes it useful across a wide variety of modern and classic barbering services.

Compatible with Wahl Taper Clippers

The attachment is designed for use with Wahl taper clippers.

Always confirm the exact compatibility of your clipper and blade setup before use and ensure the guide is seated correctly before switching the machine on.

Ideal as a Replacement Attachment

Attachment combs can become lost, worn or damaged through regular professional use.

Replacing an individual No.1.5 guide allows you to restore this useful 4.5mm cutting length without needing to purchase a complete new set of combs.

Useful as a Spare

Because the No.1.5 size is frequently used during fade refinement, keeping a spare available can be particularly useful in busy barbershops.

If the original attachment becomes damaged or misplaced, a replacement can help prevent unnecessary disruption to appointments.

Classic Black Finish

The attachment features a simple black professional finish that coordinates naturally with Wahl clippers and other cutting accessories.

Its No.1.5 designation makes it straightforward to identify when selecting the required guide from a larger collection.

Designed Specifically for Wahl Clippers

Wahl states that its attachment combs are designed specifically for Wahl clippers and are not recommended for use with machines from other manufacturers.

An unsuitable attachment may not fit securely, potentially affecting both cutting consistency and safe operation.
