Makita MT Series Planer 240v 82mm

The Makita MT Series Planer (240V, 82mm) is a powerful and reliable electric planer engineered for professional tradespeople and DIYers who require smooth, accurate wood removal for construction, carpentry, joinery, and finishing tasks. This tool is built to deliver outstanding performance in a compact, lightweight body that’s easy to control.

With its 82mm planing width, ergonomic design, and double insulation, the MT Planer is ideal for chamfering edges, reducing surface height, and fine planing across all types of timber. The rubberised soft-grip handle offers superb comfort and control, especially during extended use or overhead applications.

A V-groove in the base plate allows for quick and accurate chamfering, while the built-in foot on the rear base plate prevents damage to both the blades and the material surface when the tool is rested down.

This planer is also compatible with Makita's guide rule for added precision and comes with a dust nozzle set for cleaner workspaces, making it a practical and clean solution for onsite and workshop tasks.
