Description

Experience Cordless Freedom with Precision Surface Finishing

Elevate your carpentry and framing projects with the Bosch GHO18V-26N 18V Brushless Planer, a tool designed to bring the power of a corded planer to the versatility of a cordless platform. Engineered for finishing carpenters, door installers, and general woodworkers, this handheld unit features a high-efficiency brushless motor that generates a blistering 13,600 RPM. This speed ensures a smooth, glass-like finish even on hardwoods. The precision-machined aluminum base plate guarantees flatness and consistency, allowing you to plane up to 3-1/4 inches wide and take off up to 3/32 inches of material in a single pass without bogging down. **Battery and charger sold separately.

Beyond raw power, the GHO18V-26N is built for user control and clean operation. It features a versatile dual-shaving exhaust system, allowing you to flip a switch and direct chips either left or right to suit your working position and keep your line of sight clear. The depth adjustment knob is meticulously calibrated with 28 locking positions, ensuring you can dial in the exact cut depth required for the job. With on-tool storage for two spare blades and a fast, single-blade change system that eliminates the need for complex alignment, this planer keeps downtime to a minimum so you can focus on the craftsmanship.

Key Features

  • High-Performance Brushless Motor: Delivers 13,600 RPM for efficient power transfer and extended motor life comparable to corded tools.

  • Dual Chip Exhaust: Switchable exhaust ports allow users to direct wood shavings left or right to manage debris and maintain visibility.
  • Uniform Aluminum Base: The machined aluminum shoe provides a flat, consistent surface for accurate, smooth cuts across the workpiece.

Pro-Tip: When planing the edge of a door or a board, clamp a scrap piece of wood flush to the end of your workpiece where the planer will exit. This "sacrificial" block supports the planer shoe as it leaves the cut, preventing the blade from sniping or splintering the grain at the very end of your board.
