Systimatic - Dado Head 37160
One of many dado sets from Systimatic, this 8-in-dia. stacked set is designed to cut a variety of sheet goods and solid woods.Most woodworkers buy only one set of dado heads, so it’s important to find one that works well at the right price. Author Steve Latta tested 15 sets of 8-in. stacked dado sets with carbide teeth. He and his students compared more than 500 samples of dadoes cut cross-grain in red-oak veneer-core plywood and in particleboard-core melamine. They evaluated tearout, how deeply the outside blades cut a visible scribe, and whether the bottom of the cut was flat and smooth. One of many sets from Systimatic, this 8-in. stacked dado head produced excellent cuts in both plywood and melamine; scoring marks were visible, but bottom cuts were smooth.
