Replacement Tungsten Inserts

Do you have a spiral cutterhead and need replacement tungsten inserts? Tungsten inserts are not all made equal. We stock a range of premium tungsten cardbide inserts that last longer and are what you need if you are machining Australian hardwoods.

Tungsten inserts are the cornerstone of modern spiral cutterheads, offering unmatched durability and precision. Made from high-quality tungsten carbide, these inserts are designed to withstand heavy use and maintain sharpness for extended periods, providing up to 10 times the lifespan of traditional HSS (high-speed steel) knives. The hardness and wear resistance of tungsten carbide allow for smoother cuts and less frequent maintenance, even on tough hardwoods or figured grain. With multiple cutting edges on each insert, users can easily rotate them to extend their lifespan, making tungsten inserts the ideal choice for achieving consistent, high-quality finishes with reduced downtime and maintenance costs.
