Bosch GOF13-25 1-3/4 HP 10.8 Amp Mid-Size Corded Plunge Wood Router
The Bosch GOF13-25 1-3/4 HP Mid-Size Plunge Router operates as a commercial-grade woodworking power tool engineered to cut dados, process door hinge mortises, and execute deep plunge cuts in dense hardwoods and manufactured sheets. Powered by a 10.8 Amp (1.75 HP) motor delivering variable speeds from 11,000 to 28,000 RPM, this mid-size router features a 1/4-inch collet chuck, a 2.0-inch maximum plunge depth, an 8-step depth stop turret, and a net tool weight of 7.7 pounds. Equipped with handle-mounted speed dials, dual control grips, a detachable parallel guide fence, and a clear dust extraction shroud, this plunge router enables cabinet makers and finish carpenters to maintain rigid edge tracking without tear-out.
Best Used For:
- Precision Mortise & Deep Plunge Joint Milling: Cutting deep door hinge mortises and structural joinery up to 2 inches deep using the 8-step micro-fine depth stop turret.
- Straight Dado & Groove Cutting Along Panels: Milling straight dados and edge channels into hardwood or plywood stock using the detachable parallel edge guide fence.
- Pattern Routing & Profile Inlay Work: Guiding template bits and decorative cutters through dense hardwoods across variable 11,000 to 28,000 RPM speed thresholds.
Key Performance & Safety Features
- Powerful 10.8 Amp 1.75 HP Motor: High-torque powertrain supplies continuous rotational velocity to prevent motor bog-down when plunging through thick timber.
- Micro-Fine Plunge Depth Turret: Precision depth-stop system features an 8-stop rotating turret to step out deep mortises over controlled, gradual passes.
- Handle-Mounted Variable Speed Dial: Ergonomically positioned control dial adjusts motor speeds from 11,000 to 28,000 RPM to suit various bit diameters.
- Dual Ergonomic Control Grips: Wide-set non-slip handles center operator downward force directly over the spindle axis for maximum tracking balance.
- Detachable Parallel Edge Guide: Heavy-duty parallel fence maintains rigid mechanical alignment along board perimeters for straight, uniform cuts.
- Clear Surface Dust Extraction Hood: Transparent vacuum shroud adapter collects wood chips directly at the cutter opening to preserve a clean line of sight.

Pro-Tip: When cutting deep mortises or dados in dense hardwoods like oak or maple, do not attempt to plunge the full depth in a single pass. Set the GOF13-25 8-step depth stop turret to make progressive 1/4-inch passes, allowing the motor to maintain high RPM, reducing thermal stress on your cutter, and producing smooth, chatter-free mortise walls.
Customer Reviews
Thank you for submitting your review
Big enough motor, can 1/2" shanks be used? Also, can this be made a combination router?
Hi Steve, From my understanding, No, the BOSCH GOF13-25 Plunge Router cannot be easily converted into a combination router. It is manufactured and sold strictly as a dedicated plunge router, and Bosch does not manufacture or offer a compatible fixed base to convert it into a combo kit. Thank you!
