Helical/shelical Cutterhead for Pomwermatic 18" Planer PM 180,

Description

The list is a helical cutterhead, manufactured by WGM Tool Works, to replace the stock traditional steel cutterheads of a 18" Powermatic 180 (PM 180) planer. Each head features 6 rows of cutters for a total of ~108. Each cutter, or carbide insert in size of 15mmX15mmX2.5mm, is solid carbide and will out-last your steel knives by a good margin. Each insert also has four cutting sides so just rotate the one side that gets dull and you are ready to plane again.
The advantages a helical cutterhead offers include:
Extremely noise reduction
No tear-out
Long lasting cutter life
No sharpening
Easy replacement of cutters and no alignment required
