Sheartak Spiral Cutterhead for SUNHILL SM-204 8-inch Jointer 52 Carbide Inserts
Woodworkers are now retrofitting spiral cutterheads to their old planers, and jointers for the following advantages.
* Smoother Finish with no tear-out. Each knife sits at a slight angle and produces a shear-cut. Spiral cutterhead planes board in a staggered way which is much better than a single straight cut. The combined shear and staggered cut eliminates tear-out and leaves a glossy surface finish on even highly figured hardwood.
* Noise is hugely reduced as the spiral cutterhead allows a few knives to cut in a staggered way.
* More than 10 times the life use of high-speed steel. The 15x15x2.5mm inserts are made of sintered tungsten carbide which is much harder than high-speed steel. Each insert has four edges.
* Easy to change. The knives are precision ground to a tolerance of +/-0.0004" or +/-0.01mm and are interchangeable. Loosen the screw, rotate 90° for a new edge, and tighten the insert in minutes. It cuts your production time by 30%.
* Dust extraction is easier. The spiral cutterhead produces thinner and shorter chips.
* Low cost to use. Spiral cutterheads produce a smoother finish, reduce or eliminate sanding work, and don't require sharpening, your products will pay for themselves in a very short time.
If you are not a professional woodworker and don't use the jointers every day as in a woodworking mill, we recommend the economical version with 40 carbide inserts.
