Keyline Quattro Widia Blade.

[Iain]

Does anyone know where I can get a genuine Widia cutter from?

 

It's the cutter with code WPP01 code on it.

 

I bought a replacement from my supplier which is indeed a Widia blade but it's the F01 type and it's caused me no end of grief, especially when cutting to code.

 

My original has an 84 degree angled face and the copy is 80 which seems to make all the difference somehow.

 

I've put my original cutter back on the machine and will be returning the replacement but will still require the WPP01.

 

Any suggestions?

 

Thanks,

Iain

If you cannot get a genuine one Iain you could always try these.

Bloody expensive though.

Wow how much!!

I have been invoiced £235 for the new Widia cutter. It's totally worth it as the one I am trying to replace has been cutting a lot of keys for over 4 years now.

 

Thanks for the link Graham, for all I know, the one I have fitted now may not be genuine! It came with the machine and looks exactly the same as the one on the link you provided. I shall investigate further.

 

 

Thanks.

I've been contacted by someone from Keyline. It seems I've been sold the wrong cutter as the one they gave me is for a different machine. The nice lady is helping me to sort it out.

 

Thanks to this forum i'm well on my way to getting what I paid for!

 

Thanks again for your input.
