The Laguna 6” Jointer with ShearTecII is a premium jointer giving you more of everything. Enclosed stand makes a stronger base, 1.5 HP gives you more power, longer beds (56”) allows for bigger jobs and last but not least: 6 row ShearTecII cutterhead with a total of 42 four-sided carbide inserts gives you the smoothest cut & longest life.
The Laguna ShearTecII is at the cutting edge of spiral cutterhead technology. Deep gullets allows chips to exit fast & keep the cutterhead clean. The inserts are made from thicker, solid German carbide & are set into the head on a FLAT surface rather than a cone design. This allows more torque to be used when setting the inserts. All of the inserts are slightly angled to give a SHEAR type cut with low impact & less kick-back. The leading edge is crowned to minimize lines.
All Laguna ShearTecII cutterheads have 6 rows of knives (while most competitors offer only 3 or 4 rows).
Longer life, low noise, less kick-back & smoother finish. What more can you ask for?
