Description
Designed with the exacting tolerances your shop demands, the SB1108 South Bend 15 in. Planer is top of its class in precision workmanship and dependability. The helical cutterhead delivers near mirror-smooth finishes right out of the gate. It consists of four rows of 52 indexable carbide inserts, each angled slightly to produce a shearing action. This shearing action results in less tear out in highly figured woods and quieter operation-and the planed surfaces are far superior to what you'll get with 15 in. straight-knife or other spiral cutterheads on the market. Other high-end features include a digital table height scale for ultra-precise and consistent thickness adjustments, precision-ground cast-iron tables and triple belt drive-everything that makes this 15 in. planer truly live up to the South Bend name.
