JET Tools 15in Thicknesser Helical Cutterhead 3HP Single Phase

The JET 15in helical head planer quickly and quietly transforms rough lumber into smooth boards. 

This machine means business with a powerful 3HP motor with v-belt transmission combined with a Helical Cutterhead housing 48 staggered carbide quick change knives.

The innovative Precision Air Strut System (PASSª) provides consistent upward pressure on the cutterhead, reducing the chance of board snipe.

The conveniently located two-speed gear box allows for quick and easy feed rate adjustments while removing up to 1/8-inch material with each pass for a smooth finish.

A heavy-duty precision ground cast-iron table and infeed/outfeed tables provides support for larger work pieces, making this planer a beautiful addition to the shop.
