The Scorpion CWI-J225HC is our new cast iron dovetail design 8” long bed jointer available for the demanding hobby user as well as the educational, or industrial customer looking for excellent performance in their jointer. We also have the option of our parallelogram design 8” helical jointer model CWI-J275HC for users looking for the ultimate 8” jointer. Both models feature the same superior cutting performance of our Stinger 5 row carbide helical cutter head. The Stinger heavy duty 3 1/8” diameter cutter head has 40 four-sided convex edge carbide knives set on a shear angle. The 5 rows of knives provide more knife cuts per inch, better overlap of the knives for less knife marks in the wood and virtually zero tear out even on the most difficult to joint woods.

The Scorpion J225HC comes with a heavy duty enclosed, welded steel stand with a 4″ diameter dust inlet to help move high amounts of wood chips. We are really pleased to also include our lever style mobility kit, making moving the machine around the work shop a simple task. The 72” machined cast iron bed is nice and long to help with longer boards staying straight and is easily adjustable for flatness by the machined dovetail ways and locking adjustment screws. The J225HC has a powerful 2 HP (12 amp on 220 volt) single phase motor and a magnetic safety switch with overload and under voltage protection. Included on the electrical panel, is the push button on/off switch as well as a mushroom style safety emergency disconnect switch.

The robust cast iron machined fence is 4” tall and an amazing 38” long for excellent work piece support as it travels the length of the jointer bed. The fence has set stops at 90 degrees and 45 degrees and can be set anywhere in between for angle work. It is supported by a massive cast iron fence to hold the fence accurate and true with simple adjustments. Also unique to the J225HC is the Euro style cutter head guard which is safer and easier to use than the old “pork chop” style spring loaded guards.

This Scorpion jointer is sure to be a fantastic addition to your workshop.
