8" BENCHTOP HELICAL HEAD JOINTER

This 8" Bench Top Jointer with Helical Style Cutterhead is designed to bring smooth cutting performance, compact portability, and practical setup features to small shops, job sites, and woodworking workspaces. Powered by a 1HP, 120V motor, it provides the capacity to joint boards up to 8" wide while maintaining the convenience of a benchtop machine.

The 4-row helical style cutterhead uses 16 two-sided H.S.S. indexable cutters to produce a smoother finish than straight knife jointers while helping reduce noise and sanding time. If an insert becomes dull or chipped, it can be rotated to expose a fresh cutting edge, making cutter maintenance faster and easier than traditional straight knife blade changes.

A parallelogram table adjustment system helps support accurate setup, while the Teflon-coated tables improve workpiece movement across the jointer, even when working with hardwoods. Built-in extending handles increase the table support surface for longer boards and also function as strong carry handles for easier portability. The aluminum fence keeps the machine lightweight and includes positive stops at 90° and 135° outward for common jointing setups.

For cleaner operation, the built-in dust collection system includes dual 2-1/2" and 4" dust ports, making it easy to connect to either a shop vacuum or dust collector. Backed by a 3 year warranty, this 8" benchtop jointer is a practical addition for woodworkers who need smooth, accurate stock preparation in a compact footprint.
