Product Description
The CMT Reverse Glue Joint Cutter Head is a precision-engineered shaper cutter head designed to produce strong, interlocking glue joints quickly and accurately on panels, doors, and wide-proportion furniture pieces. Built on a hard aluminium alloy body with high resistance to tensile and yield stress, this 4-inch diameter cutter head pairs with a 1-1/4 inch bore and delivers consistent results across solid wood, coated man-made materials, and uncoated sheet goods. Whether mounted on a table shaper or CNC router, it gives woodworkers and production shops the reliability needed for demanding edge-jointing and panel-gluing work.
Key Features
- Reverse glue joint geometry - crafts indestructible interlocking glue joints both quickly and accurately, reducing assembly time and increasing joint strength for panels and doors.
- Hard aluminium alloy body with high resistance to tensile and yield stress - the cutter head body withstands the mechanical demands of high-speed shaping without deforming, extending tool service life.
- 2 HWM knives 40x18x2mm (Z2) - two hardmetal knives provide balanced cutting forces and a smooth surface finish, reducing sanding time after profiling.
- 1-37/64 inch cutting height - accommodates substantial stock removal in a single pass, making it well suited for shaping thick solid wood panels and man-made board materials.
- Operating range of 7,500-12,500 RPM - the wide RPM window gives operators flexibility to match machine speed to material type, optimizing surface quality and tool safety.
- Ideal for solid wood, coated and uncoated man-made materials - one cutter head handles a broad range of workshop and production materials, reducing the need for multiple dedicated tooling setups.
Why This Product
- Woodworkers and panel processors who need a single, reliable solution for glue joint production will appreciate this cutter head's ability to form indestructible joints quickly and accurately - cutting down on setup time and rework.
- The 4-inch diameter combined with a 1-37/64 inch cutting height makes this tool well suited for wide panel and furniture door applications where other smaller cutter heads would require multiple passes.
- Compatibility with both solid hardwood and man-made sheet materials - including coated and uncoated boards - means one tool serves multiple material workflows in a single shop environment.
- The hard aluminium alloy construction with high resistance to tensile and yield stress means the cutter head body maintains its geometry under the rotational forces of high-RPM shaper work, giving operators consistent results over time.

Frequently Asked Questions
What materials can this cutter head be used on?
This CMT reverse glue joint cutter head is excellent for most materials but is ideal on solid wood, coated man-made materials, and uncoated man-made materials such as MDF, chipboard, and plywood.
What is the safe operating RPM range for this cutter head?
The cutter head is rated for operation between 7,500 and 12,500 RPM. Always set your table shaper or CNC router within this range and follow your machine manufacturer's guidelines for cutter head diameter.
How many knives does this cutter head use and what size are they?
This cutter head uses 2x HWM knives measuring 40x18x2mm. The two-knife (Z2) configuration provides balanced cutting forces and a quality surface finish during glue joint profiling.
What types of machines is this cutter head compatible with?
This CMT cutter head is designed for use on table shapers and CNC router machines. It accepts a 1-1/4 inch (31.75mm) bore spindle and should only be used on machines capable of supporting a 4-inch diameter cutter head at the rated RPM range.
