JET 20" Helical Cutterhead Planer

The JWP-208HH-1 Helical Head Planer quickly and quietly transforms rough lumber into smooth boards, with a full 20” planing width. Its heavy-duty cast iron and steel construction keeps the workpiece steady and supported, while the conveniently located two-speed gear box with an automatic chain tensioner allows for quick and easy feed rate adjustments. This machine means business with a powerful 5 HP induction motor combined with a helical insert cutterhead housing 92 staggered carbide knives for a superior finish and quieter cut. You’ll appreciate the sets of three steel infeed and outfeed rollers to help prevent annoying snipe. A large cast-iron precision ground table with smooth-as-glass surface makes this planer a beautiful addition to the shop. 1/16" Increment height scale lets you make the most precise adjustments for fine cuts. Cast iron infeed and outfeed tables come with the machine. Large handwheel with positive gear drive allows for quick and accurately table adjustments. M
