Helical Cutterhead for Ridgid R4331 13" Thickness Planer

Great buy

The experience of taking my surface planer apart and putting it back together with the new helical cutter head was rewarding. The old cutter head had three blades where the new helical head has four rows of cutters leading to a very smooth surface. The exchange of cutter heads, while time consuming, is well worth the time spent. The result is worth the cost and time spent and I would recommend the installation of the upgrade helical cutter head.

This new cutterhead cuts perfectly. It’s quiet and results were fantastic. Both new bearings came with it and the new standard threaded nut that goes on the end of the shaft. Anyone who is a little bit mechanically inclined can install it. You’ll need a pulley puller for disassembly of the old shaft. It also comes with 30 extra carbide cutters. It requires 40 but they are 4 sided so you’ll get plenty of mileage out of what’s included. Very pleased.

Quality product.

Well made helical cutter head, happy with transaction.
