Laguna JX|12 ShearTec II 5HP 1-Phase 12'' Jointer

The Laguna JX|12 ShearTec II jointer is loaded with premium features for convenience and accuracy. A knee-activated stop bar runs the length of the body, letting you quickly stop the machine from any position without letting go of your work. The aluminum fence incorporates a smaller flip-down fence that is useful for intricate work. The body is ergonomically designed to allow the operator's feet to slide under the machine, and the infeed tables are now fitted with a pull-out roller support for long workpieces. The ShearTecII cutterhead features 4-sided solid carbide inserts with a T-shoulder rather than a cone-shaped design, which helps prevent cracking of the inserts. Each insert features a slightly crowned leading edge and is set in a spiral pattern for a true shear cut. Deep gullets make dust and chips disappear quickly, which also produces a better finish. And ShearTecII has another advantage: it is much quieter than a conventional cutterhead.
