Precision Power and Versatility for Professional Edge Trimming and Joinery

Put the power of a full-size router in the palm of your hand with the Bosch PR20EVS Colt 1.0 HP Variable-Speed Palm Router. This compact workhorse features a robust 5.6 Amp motor that generates up to 35,000 RPM, making it ideal for a wide range of applications including laminate trimming, hinge mortising, edge forming, and slot cutting. Equipped with Bosch’s Constant Response™ circuitry, the tool monitors the load and maintains consistent speed for clean, burn-free cuts, while the soft-start feature ensures a smooth ramp-up to eliminate startup torque and improve control.

Designed for the comfort and precision demanded by finish carpenters and cabinet makers, the PR20EVS boasts an ergonomic palm-grip design with soft-grip over-molding and unique finger support pockets for stability. The rugged aluminum fixed base ensures durability and accuracy, featuring a quick-clamp system for fast motor adjustments. Depth setting is effortless with a macro-adjustment for rough positioning and a wheel-controlled micro-fine adjustment for dialing in the perfect cut depth. Whether you are rounding over deck planks or creating decorative inlays, this router delivers the performance you need in a package that fits your hand.
