Wide Compatibility, Smooth Cut, Good Quality, Great Price

This is a popular blade design that should fit several brands of 12.5 inch planers. I've seen identical blades advertised as compatible with Delta, Craftsman, Porter Cable. , Grizzly, Triton and others. So I'm sure they will have the same compatibility. These blades fit my old Delta 22-560 perfectly. The cut is really smooth. Sharp blades are of paramount importance. Less engine load, less noise, more efficient cutting, better cut quality. They are very sharp out of the box. I have handled them very carefully for photos. The quality seems to be very good. I've posted some closeups so you can see the details. They are precision ground high speed steel. So they should stay sharp for a long time. They're double sided so if they get dull just flip them over..Half the battle of picking the bin for my setup. ner has a tool built into the body that is all you need for installation and is rated for the correct torque. All in all these are quality replacement blades for the 12.5" planer. No difference to OEM blades other than the price which is less than half. At this price point there is no need to fret about dull blades.
