Powermatic 209HH 20-Inch Helical Head Planer

Powermatic 209HH for Smooth Finishes and Wide Capacity Planing

Helical Cutterhead for Reduced Tear-Out

The helical cutterhead uses 100 four-sided carbide inserts to produce a smoother finish with reduced tear-out and quieter operation than straight knives.

20-Inch Capacity for Large Stock

The wide 20-inch planing capacity allows efficient surfacing of larger boards, reducing handling time and increasing productivity.

5 HP Motor for Consistent Power

The 5 HP motor delivers reliable cutting performance for dense hardwoods and continuous-duty planing applications.

Two-Speed Gearbox for Finish Control

The oil-bath gearbox provides feed rates of 24 and 31 FPM, with optional slower speeds for improved surface finish when required.

Cast Iron Construction for Stability

Heavy cast iron construction and a four-column support system reduce vibration and maintain alignment for consistent thicknessing results.
