Kent-based Wealden Tool Company has at least 95% of its entire range in stock at any time – meaning that orders can be dispatched the same day, offering customers a rapid source of supply.
The comprehensive range includes traditional solid spiral cutters, including large sizes and other items such as chipbreaker spirals for stringless cutting on solid timbers. Many feature replaceable tips, offering the benefit of a constant diameter and easy maintenance, the blades being rotated to present new cutting edges.
There is also a fulsome range of solid tungsten carbide bodies with PCD (polycrystalline diamond) tips, for increased wear resistance when cutting abrasive materials.
New products include the Persistence Pro range of upcut, downcut and compression spirals, featuring a DLC (diamond-like carbon) coating offering 2-3 x the life of uncoated tungsten carbide, a low coefficent of friction and smoother cutting on all timber-based materials.
The company also produces an increasing range of Swop-tip replaceable insert tooling, many of which were produced to answer customers’ specific problems – such as the Cove Surfacing cutter, a two-flute TC replaceable tip cutter to produce recesses with a flat bottom and radiused corners, overcoming the need for separate cutters for the radius and clearing out, and thus eliminating problems of height alignment.
Wealden Tool Company has designed other innovative cutters, such as: the handleless drawer/door cutter to produce finger-pull mouldings on MDF and timber doors and drawers; Vari-Angle cutter heads and cutter blocks to take the range of spindle moulder euro knives, offering compatibility between spindle moulding and CNC sections; Arris Round/Chamfer with two TC planer knives to edge plane in addition to rounding/chamfering; and the Undercut Chamfer cutter to produce 45° undercut chamfers, featuring replaceable TC knives.
Although Wealden does not produce one-off specials, the Kent company can produce custom cutters in production quantities and is always happy to go out of its way to help customers with their projects.
