Byrd Tool Corp. SHELIX Cutterhead for Delta DJ-20 8-in. Jointer

Description

The ORIGINAL SHEar & heLIX spiral cutter non-grind design!  Made in the USA by Byrd Tool Corp., these indexable carbide insert cutterheads give a shear, staggered cut instetad of a single, straight knife cut.  Not only does this provide a superior finish on your work-piece, it is a lot easier on your dust collection system because the staggered spiral configuration of the inserts allows for the break-up of the chips.  Another benefit to the indexed insert design is ease of maintenance.  Dull or damaged insert knives are individually replaced, a much more cost-effective option than having to replace expensive knive blades the full length of your planer or jointer head.  Each cutterhead comes with 5 extra inserts and a torque driver to aid insert replacement.  This cutterhead is for use on the Delta DJ-20 8-in. jointer.
