The JET JWP-13BTHH 13 in. Benchtop Thickness Planer (Stock No. JT1-2989) delivers heavy-duty surface planing capability in a compact, portable benchtop design. Powered by a 15A motor driving a 9,500 RPM helical cutterhead equipped with 30 indexable carbide inserts, this machine handles boards up to 13 in. wide and 6 in. thick. Engineered for small-shop craftsmen, finish carpenters, and serious hobbyists, the JWP-13BTHH combines smooth cutting performance, reduced noise operation, and long-lasting edge life without requiring the footprint of a full-size stationary machine.

Equipped with a helical cutterhead holding 30 four-sided carbide insert knives, each insert can be rotated 90 degrees to reveal a fresh cutting edge when dull, significantly reducing downtime and knife replacement costs. The 24.6 FPM feed rate and 1/16 in. table movement per handwheel revolution allow precise thickness control across all wood species. Integrated depth stop presets enable rapid returns to standard thickness settings for repeatable batch processing. Designed for jobsite transport and shop mobility, the sub-70 lb. unit features built-in carrying handles and folding infeed and outfeed support tables.
