Sheartak Spiral Helical Cutter head for Craftmaster 6" Jointer  with 30 Carbide Knives

 Craftmaster 6" jointers boast a straightforward yet robust design, featuring heavy castings and stands coupled with an elegant aesthetic. Despite their simplicity, they are equipped with adjustable rear tables for added versatility. Even after more than 80 years, these reliable machines continue to perform admirably. Sheartak takes pride in crafting spiral cutterheads, enabling loyal machine owners to experience the advantages of spiral cutting technology and enhance their woodworking capabilities.

* 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 more complicated 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.

* 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 product will pay for itself in a very short time.

Kit Includes:
