CMT Solid Carbide Reversible Knives - R8 Radius, 24x12x1.5mm, 10-Piece Pack are profiled rounding throwaway insert knives engineered for precision edge profiling and molding work on spindle moulders, profile machines, and router tables equipped with compatible cutter heads. Built from K1920 tungsten carbide, each knife delivers a consistent 8mm radius profile with four usable cutting edges per insert, making this 10-piece pack an efficient solution for high-demand shaping and profiling operations on hardwood, softwood, MDF, chipboard, and plywood.

Key Features

• K1920 Solid Carbide Material - tungsten carbide grade K1920 provides exceptional hardness and wear resistance, extending cutting life significantly compared to HSS alternatives when working demanding materials like hardwood and MDF.
• Four Cutting Edges Per Knife - each reversible insert offers four usable cutting edges, so when one edge dulls you simply rotate or flip the insert to a fresh edge, maximizing the value of every piece in the pack.
• R8 Profiled Rounding Geometry - the 8mm radius profile ground at a 35 deg. angle delivers a smooth, consistent round-over edge in a single pass, eliminating secondary sanding steps on profiling runs.
• Precise Dimensions - 24x12x1.5mm - exact length, height, and thickness tolerances ensure a secure, repeatable seat in compatible cutter heads, maintaining profile consistency across every workpiece.
• Throwaway Reversible Design - when all four cutting edges are spent, the knife is replaced rather than resharpened, keeping setup time low and edge geometry consistent throughout production.
• 10-Piece Pack Quantity - the multi-piece pack keeps replacement inserts on hand so production is never interrupted waiting for a single knife replacement.

Why This Product

• Four cutting edges per insert mean you get four times the productive life from a single knife before replacement - reducing per-edge cost on repetitive edge rounding and profiling runs.
• The 35 deg. cutting angle and R8 radius are ground to precise tolerances, so profile quality remains consistent from the first pass to the last insert in the pack - important on production runs where uniformity matters.
• K1920 carbide grade resists heat and abrasion on demanding substrates including MDF and chipboard, where softer tooling grades lose their edge much faster.
• The 10-piece pack format ensures you maintain an adequate supply of spare inserts on hand for uninterrupted operation during high-volume shaping and molding sessions.
