An exclusive replacement spiral cutterhead for the DEWALT DW735 planer, featuring 30 indexable carbide inserts for quieter cutting, reduced tearout, and a smoother finish. Read Less
The CX735SPIRAL Cutterhead is designed specifically to fit the DEWALT DW735 thickness planer. Manufactured in Taiwan at the same factory that produces the DW735 planer, it is engineered for precise fit and dependable performance.
Its staggered insert layout creates multiple stepped cuts across the width of the cutterhead rather than engaging the full cutting edge at once. This design helps reduce operating noise, minimize tearout, and produce a smoother, cleaner surface compared with conventional straight knives.
The cutterhead uses 30 square carbide inserts, each measuring 15 mm x 15 mm x 2.5 mm. When an edge becomes dull or chipped, the insert can be rotated 90° to expose a fresh cutting edge instead of replacing the entire knife. An indicator mark on one corner of each insert helps track its rotation.
