Sheartak Helical Cutter Head for Casadei Combination Planer Thicknesser Model FS 51 with 126 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 staggered, 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.
* 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 concise time.
