When it comes to maintaining the performance of your woodturning tools, selecting the best replacement Tungsten Carbide Cutting Wheels is crucial. Munro’s cutting wheels are designed with woodturners in mind, providing unparalleled precision and durability. Unlike other options on the market, Munro’s cutting wheels are crafted with a unique bevel and cutting surface, transforming them into cutting cups that excel in delivering clean, smooth finishes on your workpiece.
Why Tungsten Carbide Cutting Wheels Are Superior
Features of Munro Tungsten Carbide Cutting Wheels
Munro Tungsten Carbide Cutting Wheels are engineered to outperform traditional steel or high-speed steel (HSS) cutters. The key to their superiority lies in the exceptional hardness and wear resistance of tungsten carbide, which is nearly twice as dense as steel. This density allows the cutters to maintain a sharp edge for an extended period, drastically reducing the need for frequent sharpening. This is particularly beneficial for woodturners who work with dense or abrasive woods, where maintaining a sharp edge is essential for achieving a smooth, fine finish. When working with wet green wood, the moisture tends to have a negative effect on HSS cutters, this is not a problem with Tungsten Carbide.
Available Sizes and Compatibility
Munro offers a range of Tungsten Carbide Cutting Wheels in different sizes to fit various woodturning tools. Whether you’re using the Mini6, Wunderkutt10, or other compatible Munro tools, there is a cutting wheel perfectly sized for your needs. The 6mm, 8mm, 10mm nad 12mm wheels ensure that you can find the right fit for your tool, enabling you to continue working with precision and efficiency.
Benefits of Using Munro Tungsten Carbide Cutting Wheels
Easy Replacement and Long-Lasting Sharpness
One of the standout benefits of Munro Tungsten Carbide Cutting Wheels is their ease of replacement. When the cutting edge begins to dull, simply rotate the wheel to a fresh edge and continue working. This feature, combined with the wheels’ durability, makes Munro a cost-effective choice in the long term. You’ll spend less time replacing and more time creating, thanks to the consistent performance these cutting wheels offer.
How to Choose the Right Size for Your Tool
Selecting the correct size for your Tungsten Carbide Cutting Wheel is essential for optimal performance. Consider the tool you’re using and refer to the compatibility details provided with each Munro cutting wheel. The right size will ensure that your tool operates smoothly, delivering the clean, precise cuts that Munro tools are known for.
Why Would you need to replace your Tungsten Carbide Cutting Wheels?
While the cutting wheels are by far the best on the market and retain their edge for a very, very long time, eventually you would have rotated it across all 360 degrees and resharpened it many, many times and it stops being a cup and becomes a flat disc. You will notice the edge is no longer viable for making cuts. Now is the time to replace that wheel that has served you so well for so long.
Unfortunately, as any eperienced woodturner knows, sometimes we encounter foreign objects inside timber. Trees have the amazing ability to heal from wounds caused by foreign object and to grow around foreign objects. I have found rocks, nails, bullets, steel pieces and even a horseshoe inside timber I have cut or turned. Quickest way to blunt a chainsaw blade, woodturning gouge or tool is to hit a piece of rock or metal. And unfortunately hitting a piece of steel inside a rotating piece of timber often causes your cutting bevel on your gouge or cutting wheel to chip. And while you can still rotate the wheel to utilise the other surfaces, sharpening it again is no longer an option. Now is a time to replace your cutting wheel.
Sometimes, and I speak from experience, you lose your cutting wheel. I have lost quite a few small things in the shavings on my floor, never to be found again! And Tungsten Carbide wont be attracted to a magnet like small screws and the like. So if you do lose it, well at least you know you can order a spare cutter easily online and they are really not expensive at all.
