    Default GMC Thicknesser Blades for Model PT330

    Hello all,
    I'm having issues trying to find blades for my GMC PT330 Thicknesser.

    They appear to be different dimensions from the last model and are not the same as the ones from Carbatec.

    The blades are double sided and the dimensions are:
    333mm long
    12mm wide
    1.5mm thick

    They also have three holes (two of which appear to be used) at:
    67mm from each end
    One in the centre

    This thicknesser has served me well and I can't afford to purchase a new one so any ideas would be greatly received.

    Thanks

    Thanks Brian,
    I've been doing some searching and although I can find a few people mention they "should" fit, I can't find any dimensions or pictures of the Ryobi ones.

    Also the blades I have are 333mm long and from what I've read the Ryobi ones are 312mm.

    Also do the Ryobi ones have holes in them?

    Default GMC Thicknesser blades

    Have a look on Ebay for the store cheaptools at Bairnsdale Vic. You will usually find them under the triton stuff. I got blades from them for my triton 330mm thicknesser and they were in a package labelled GMC. They are as you descibed with 3 holesand 67 mm from the end.

    Thanks mcintoad,
    After posting my initial post I also emailed them and they got back to me this morning telling me they have them and to give them a call.

    Thanks for the help

    Blades received and they are the right ones.
    Still in the original GMC packaging.

    Well Done You

    are the blades double edged?
    Because after your initial question I checked mine and I'm probably due for a new set

    Sure are, exactly the same as the dimensions from my first post.

    The packets says they are for the GMC thicknesser model PT330

    From what I found out there was actually two different GMC thicknesser models.
    The PT330 which I had had different blades and the OZITO blades were different and Bunnings did not have them available.

    Default pt330 blades

    my pt330 planer, purchased may 2008 from bunnings, after I wore the first set of blades out I seen my friendly bunnings tool man for replacements. He rang ozito & confirmed measurements from my blades which were supplied soon after. The blades are identical. Part numbers on package are ;spo#010488
    & spozt1500wa-056
    Dimensions are the same as quoted elsewere in this forum
    I hope this clears up any confusion.

    Thanks for the info.

    When I went to my local Bunnings they said the only blades they had or could supply were the wider ones that didnt fit the PT330.

    If i have trouble getting them in the future I'll go back and hassle them.
