Advanced Spiral Cutterhead Technology

Sheartak Tools Ltd. manufactures precision-engineered spiral cutterhead solutions specifically designed for Bernardo woodworking machinery. While many newer Bernardo models feature helical knife planer shafts, our cutter head upgrades are available for earlier models and provide enhanced performance. Each spiral cutterhead jointer conversion features premium carbide inserts as mechanical components arranged along helical grooves, creating a true shear-cut that dramatically reduces noise stress and ensures optimal planing results.

These mechanical component upgrades deliver exceptional surface finishes that enhance the already impressive quality of Bernardo woodworking tools. The advanced cutter head design provides more than 10 times the blade life of traditional straight knives. When an edge dulls on your spiral cutterhead jointer, simply rotate the carbide insert 90 degrees for a fresh cutting edge—no blade removal or complicated adjustments required.

Professional Mechanical Components

Sheartak Tools Ltd. manufactures every Bernardo woodworking spiral cutterhead using high-tensile strength alloy steel paired with sintered tungsten carbide inserts. Each cutter head is precision-ground to tolerances of ±0.0004" (±0.01mm), ensuring seamless integration with your Bernardo machinery. Our mechanical components are engineered to match the specifications of popular models including combination planers, jointers, and thickness planers.

Whether you own a Bernardo AD260S, AD310S, PT260, or other model, our spiral cutterhead solutions deliver professional reliability and performance. These woodworking tools reduce operational noise, improve surface quality, and complement the excellent spare parts support that Bernardo is known for, maximizing your investment in quality Austrian engineering.
