The original GENERAL 13'' Planer 30-005MI includes 26 two-edge high-speed steel (HSS) blades that sell for USD79 per 10 pieces. However, HSS blades tend to wear out quickly, and their arrangement is not helical. In contrast, the Sheartak spiral cutterhead for the 30-005 MI features 40 carbide inserts, each with four cutting edges. Carbide inserts have a lifespan that is 50 times longer than HSS blades, making them a more durable option. Additionally, Sheartak angled the 40 carbide inserts along four helical grooves for a pure shear cut, which results in a superior surface finish. The Sheartak carbide inserts come in a box and sell for USD36 or CAD45. By upgrading to the Sheartak spiral cutterhead, users can achieve better performance and recoup their investment quickly.
Spiral Cutterhead Kit includes:
* High tensile strength alloy steel cutter block.
* 40 carbide inserts installed.
* 5 extra carbide inserts & 5 extra screws free as spare parts.
* A pair of premium sealed bearings.
* 1 Wrench
