Planer Side Head - Retrofit System

Picture
Key Knife’s newest product innovation, planer side head retrofit holders, allow planer mills to upgrade existing conventional planer side heads with disposable knife technology. Retrofit holders are a direct replacement for L and LV knives. The simplified design only requires the holders to be set up once. After the initial installation holders remain fixed to the side head for knife changes. The small disposable knife eliminates the task of grinding and all associated costs. Upgrading is as simple as changing knives!
