Details
The Powermatic PM2020B woodworking lathe brings many of the features found on larger Powermatic lathes into a space-saving design. Powered by a 2 HP motor operating on 220V single- or three-phase power, this lathe is ideal for bowl turning and projects that benefit from a shorter bed. It includes a sliding headstock, electronic variable speed with high and low ranges, spindle locking, and a digital RPM readout. Additional refinements include built-in spindle indexing, a redesigned tailstock with internal storage, and a self-ejecting quill with laser-etched markings. With integrated tool storage and multiple mounting positions for optional extensions, the PM2020B offers versatility without sacrificing performance.

We reserve the right to determine the fastest and most cost-effective manner of transportation for all orders that qualify for free shipping. Our shipping carriers cannot deliver to PO box or U.S. military post office box addresses, such as APO and FPO, so we require a physical street address for delivery.
