Premium Spiral Cutterhead Jointer Solutions

Sheartak Tools Ltd. manufactures precision-engineered spiral cutterhead solutions specifically designed for Charnwood planer thicknesser machinery. Our cutter head upgrades transform standard Charnwood machines into high-performance systems with significantly enhanced cutting quality. 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 and eliminates tear-out on all wood species.

These mechanical component upgrades deliver exceptional surface finishes that enhance the already solid performance of Charnwood 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, no sharpening services, no complicated adjustments required.
