Description
The JET 13″ Benchtop Planers are built for woodworkers who need real capability without committing to a full-size stationary machine. Designed with portability, efficiency, and performance in mind, these machines deliver the planing capacity, power, and finish quality users expect from JET in a compact format that fits how people actually work. Whether in a smaller shop, on a jobsite, or in a multi-purpose workspace, JET benchtop planers give users the confidence to take on more work, process full-width material, and achieve consistent results without sacrificing valuable space
Features
Mobility That Works the Way You Do: Designed for real-world transport and storage, the sub-70 lb. planer includes integrated carry points for true one-person mobility. Move it around the shop, take it to the jobsite, or store it between projects with ease.
Full Capability in a Smaller Footprint: A 13″ planing capacity lets users surface full-width material without upgrading to a larger stationary machine. Folding infeed and outfeed tables provide board support while keeping the machine compact.
Performance Built for Serious Work: A 2HP motor and optional helical cutterhead deliver efficient cutting, quieter operation, and long-lasting edge life across a wide range of materials.
Precision and Practical Control: The depth stop preset enables quick returns to common thickness settings for faster, more consistent workflow.
Professional Value Without Compromise: Jobsite-ready 120V power and purpose-built features deliver professional performance in a portable, space-efficient design.
