Description
Milwaukee 2623-20 M18™ 3-1/4 in. Planer
Powerful Material Removal. Absolute Micro-Depth Control. Clean, Snipe-Free Finishes.
The Milwaukee 3-1/4" Planer 2623-20 delivers unmatched portable depth control and rapid material flattening across soft and hardwoods alike. Driven by a high-torque mechanical motor spinning at a blistering 14,000 RPM, this industrial-grade hand planer effortlessly removes up to 5/64" of wood in a single pass. This gives finish carpenters, framing crews, and cabinet makers the muscle to quickly level stubborn subfloors, trim sticking doors, or clean up rough-sawn lumber straight from their work truck without dragging out a stationary planer.
Precision and workspace visibility define this cordless tool. The front shoe is equipped with a premium micro-depth adjustment dial featuring 20 positive locking positions down to fractions of a millimeter. Crucially, the dial is mechanically limited so it cannot rotate past the 0" or 5/64" benchmarks, allowing users to instantly identify their active depth setting without needing to constantly re-zero the tool. To maximize workspace cleanliness and user protection, the 2623-20 features a customizable dual-side chip ejection switch. This enables you to route wood shavings out of either the left or right port, aiming debris completely away from your eyes or pre-finished surfaces.
Why the Milwaukee M18™ 3-1/4" Hand Planer is a Jobsite Essential:
- 5/64" Single-Pass Threshold: Strips away substantial material quickly per stroke to dramatically increase flattening productivity.
- 20 Locking Dial Positions: Delivers highly accurate, predictable depth intervals that click firmly into place so your settings never shift under load.
- No Re-Zeroing Adjustment: Dial boundaries lock precisely at 0" and 5/64", giving you instant reference tracking on busy trim arrays.
- Dual Left or Right Chip Ports: Toggle switch instantly redirects high-velocity wood shavings away from your line of sight or finished trim faces.
- Spring-Loaded Protect Kickstand: An integrated dropdown foot at the rear shoe base keeps the sharp carbide blades safely elevated off your work surfaces when setting the tool down.
