Thread: Durden SP 10/600 planer blade size ?

I just bought a UP 10-600 made in 1976 , looks similar to yours but a later model.

The slots for the blades in the cutter head are about 22mm deap and it takes 3 @ 150

X25 X3mm Carbatec sell them. Hercus took Durden over and were selling manuals on

ebay for the UP 10-600. nice little machines, enjoy phil

Hi Pommyphil

I have a download of the UP 10-600 manual, and they use 6" x 1" x 1/8" blades.

But I don't think these would fit this machine. My blades are 21mm tall, and if I tried 1" (25mm) blades I think they would strike the front and rear planer tables, at the moment my blades have only 1 or 2mm clearance.

Regards Steve.

Hi Steve Yea, it may be a different cutter head, On mine, on the outboard end of the cutter head I can just see the end of the slot and the bottom of the cutter. about 5mm
between, but my cutters are worn down a couple of mill. If yours are narrower have a look at the double sided 318mm ones they sell for the benchtop thicknessers, you may be able to chop them down. I bought a pair of Ryobi 18% Tungsten for about $30
at Bunnings recently. They're about 20mm wide. Phil

Hi,

I feel really silly now.

The blades required are 6" x 1" x 1/8".

I failed to notice just how much the original blades had been resharpened, there was a 5mm gap between the rear of the blade and the bottom of the mounting slots in cutter head.

Regards Steve.
