Spiral Cutterhead for DeWalt DW735 13" thickness Planer

Spiral Cutterhead for DeWalt DW735 13-inch thickness Planer with 40 carbide cutters, Reduced Diameter

Take your DeWalt DW735 13" thickness Planer into a high-performance woodworking tool with Sheartak Spiral Cutterhead, featuring 40 carbide inserts on 4 spirals for superior cutting efficiency. Each unit includes 5 extra inserts and 5 spare screws, and is backed by a 1-year warranty on the cutterblock from the purchase date. Designed for smoother finishes, quieter operation, and easier maintenance, this upgrade is ideal for woodworkers looking to enhance both quality and efficiency.

Specification and What's Included:

• Spiral Cutterhead for DW735 13" thickness Planer Reduced Diameter: 4 spirals with 40 carbide inserts
• Material of Cutterblock: AISI 5140 high tensile strength alloy steel
  
• Material of carbide insert: Grade C3++.
• Additional 5 carbide inserts and 5 screws
• 1 T-handle torque wrench for easy insert changes (Torx head T-type)
• Carbide insert size: 15x15x2.5mm R150
• 1 pair of premium bearings preinstalled

Please note: This spiral cutterhead features a slightly smaller cutting diameter compared to the original OEM version. It is shipped fully assembled with all carbide inserts pre-installed and is designed to fit through the housing bore for the larger bearing with minimal effort. This makes installation more straightforward than the OEM-style cutterhead.

However, due to the reduced diameter, the maximum cutting depth is limited to approximately 1/16" per pass. Taking deeper cuts may increase pressure on the infeed and outfeed rollers and could result in minor table flexing, especially under heavy load.

We recommend this version for hobbyist woodworkers or light-duty applications where fine, incremental passes are acceptable and surface quality is prioritized over aggressive material removal.

Installation Made Easy

• Direct fit for DeWalt DW735 and DW735X models
  
• No balancing required—factory balanced and ready to use
• Fits through the bearing bore of the planer housing

Do I need to replace the original bearings?
If the bearings in your machine are in good condition, they can be reused by carefully removing them with a bearing or pulley puller. However, if the bearings are tightly pressed onto the shaft, removal may cause damage. To minimize this risk, we recommend replacing old bearings with our greased and sealed bearings, designed for long-lasting performance. For a smooth upgrade, we suggest adding the bearings to your shopping cart before completing your purchase.
We provide premium bearings from NSK, SKF, NTN, FAG, Timken. They are renowned for their high quality and performance, designed to provide durability and reliability in various applications
If you add the bearings to your order, we will preinstall them for you when premounting is possible, saving you the hassle of doing it yourself.

Do I need to to Add a Few Boxes of Carbide Inserts
We provide 5 carbide inserts and 5 screws as spare parts. However, many of our customers choose to purchase additional boxes, as the shipping costs for separate purchases can make it less economical.

Do I need a Torque Wrench?
To securely lock the carbide inserts, we recommend applying a torque of 48 to 52 Pound-Inches (or 5.42 to 5.88 Newton-Meters). (Note: 1 Newton-Meter is equal to 8.851 Pound-Inches, and 1 Pound-Inch is approximately 0.113 Newton-Meters.) It is crucial not to apply excessive torque, as this could cause the carbide inserts to crack or explode. On the other hand, using too little torque may result in the inserts not being properly secured, which could lead to cracks, shattering, or uneven height on the cutter block, causing ridges or lines on the board.
If one person is responsible for maintaining the machine, they can typically apply the same torque consistently without a torque wrench. However, when multiple people are involved in machine maintenance, ensuring uniform torque application can be challenging. For consistency and peace of mind, we recommend using a torque wrench.

What kind of steel the cutter block is made of?
The cutter block is constructed using GB/T 40Cr, a structural alloy steel of the same caliber as ASTM grade 5140, AISI 5140, SAE 5140, DIN 41Cr4, BS 41Cr4, JIS SCr440, and EN 41Cr4.The primary components of this steel are as follows: carbon (C) at a range of 0.37-0.44%, silicon (Si) between 0.17-0.37%, manganese (Mn) within 0.50-0.80%, and chromium (Cr) from 0.80-1.10%.
In terms of physical properties, this steel exhibits a tensile strength range of 115-234σb/MPa, a yield strength of 2σ 0.2 ≥/MPa, and an elongation capacity of 65 δ5≥ (%). It also has a HBS range of 123-321 and a HRC rating of 30.
This alloy steel is frequently utilized in low to moderately stressed components for machines, engines, and vehicles.
