How to make nano shame

Nano SIM card entered into use in 2012 with the advent of the first iPhone 5S and iPad 4 Mini With Retina tablets, without which the operation of these devices is impossible. Then it was not so easy to get it, and now such a SIM is worth the money. Below we will consider ways to transform the usual telephone to the Nano SIM card using tools that are found at many at home.

Standard SIM card is not much different from Nano SIM card. The chip itself, which saves information, has not changed, which is most importantly. Turn the usual SIM-ku in Nano using such tools:

the caliper (ordinary or digital) is the device for accurate measurement of values, you will need to measure the difference between maps and the markings of the labels by which we will cut;
if there is no caliper - a ruler, a sheet of paper and a pencil;
sandpaper or file - for grinding edges of the circumcised SIM-ki, in order to reduce the thickness of the source card;
very sharp scissors.

SIM-Card dimensions:

nano SIM card: width - 12.3 mm, height - 8.8 mm, thickness - 0.67 mm;
micro SIM: Width - 14.9 mm, height - 12.03 mm, thickness - 0.81 mm.

Comparing these values, it can be seen that the difference in the parameters is small, and it is quite possible to eliminate it with scissors.

Take the caliper, set the Nano SIM card parameters in turn on it: width and length. And transfer to ordinary SIM-ku, noting the lines for which we will cut, pencil, and also do not forget to measure and see the cut.

If you do not have a calipers, then we do as follows:

we take a sheet of paper, a ruler, pencil;
using a ruler as a measuring device, we draw a Nano SIM card template on paper;
cut out this pattern;
we put on top of the Micro SIM card, carefully circuit in the pencil circuit of the template.

Before cutting the main SIM card, it is recommended to practice on old Micro SIM, since one careless movement can cost you hopelessly spoiled SIM card. Sut off the edges, try to hit the chip and contacts as much as possible. Your goal is the maximum accuracy in changing the size of micro SIM-ki.

If you are not sure that you can trim the card, then Chinese manufacturers have been necessary to adapt Micro SIM cards in the Nano SIM card and invented a special cutter to remove unnecessary SIM-ki, like it looks like.

Now the most difficult thing remains: to eliminate the difference in the thickness of SIM-cards, which is 0.16 mm. Before starting the procedure of thinning Nano SIM-ki, we advise you to put on a medical mask, since the dust formed when grinding has a sufficiently unpleasant smell and texture. We take sandpaper or a file and carefully, slowly, grind the card on the reverse side of the contacts (where the picture). If you have ceased with a reduction in the thickness of the Micro SIM card, put a regular paper sheet under the adapted Nano SIM card.

Before changing the sizes of Micro SIM-Ki, it is recommended to see the video materials on the adaptation of an ordinary map in the Nano format. Also before starting work, it is necessary to keep in mind that a variable Micro SIM card, as well as all the information that is on it can be lost forever.
