The WEN 13-Inch Benchtop Thickness Planer repurposes rough and worn wood to give it an exceptionally smooth finish. Our spiral cutterhead utilizes 26 staggered HSS blades to provide a perfect finish to hard and soft woods alike. The powerful 15-amp motor rotates the cutterhead over 10,000 RPM at a 26 feet per minute feed rate. Plane boards up to 13 inches wide and 6 inches thick with ease. The onboard planing gauge helps inform users about the amount of material being removed during each pass. Combine that with the heavy duty cast iron base for a sturdy planer that does not walk or wobble during operation. The handy depth adjustment knob makes it easy to take off anywhere from 0 to 1/8 of an inch per pass. The adjustable dust port removes chips and sawdust from the workpiece and blasts them out of the way. The onboard depth stop allows users to achieve an exact workpiece thickness with maximum precision. This package also includes height-adjustable infeed and outfeed tables to limit snipe while providing extra support to your workpiece during planing. Easily mount the planer to a work surface or stand (such as the WEN MSA658 Planer Stand) using the predrilled base holes. Compatible with the WEN BP510H Replacement Spiral Blades. And because it’s a WEN product, this planer comes backed by a nationwide network of skilled service technicians, a helpful customer support line and a two-year warranty. Remember when your planer could handle even the hardest of woods? Remember WEN. ## Features - Spiral cutterhead utilizes 26 staggered and rotatable HSS blades for a clean, smooth finish - Onboard material removal gauge informs users about the cutting depth of each pass - Plane boards up to 6 inches thick and 13 inches wide - 15A motor generates 10,000 RPM at a 26 feet per minute feed rate - Includes a depth stop, an adjustable dust port, and a two-year warranty ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B08NWF6P3Q | | ASIN | B08NWF6P3Q | | Amperage | 15 Amps | | Base Material | Cast Iron | | Best Sellers Rank | #195,777 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #21 in Benchtop Power Planers | | Brand Name | WEN | | Color | Orange | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (681) | | Customer reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (681) | | Cutting Depth | 6 Inches | | Cutting width | 33 Centimeters | | Date First Available | 19 November 2020 | | EU Spare Part Availability Duration | 2 Years | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00044459013266 | | Included Components | Includes a depth stop and an adjustable dust port | | Item Type Name | 15-Amp 13-Inch Spiral Benchtop Thickness Planer | | Item Weight | 36.74 Kilograms | | Item model number | PL1326 | | Manufacturer | WEN | | Manufacturer | WEN | | Manufacturer Part Number | PL1326 | | Material Type | Cast Iron | | Maximum Rotational Speed | 10000 RPM | | Model Number | PL1326 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Package Dimensions | 66.34 x 53.34 x 40.31 cm; 36.74 kg | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Style Name | Spiral Cutterhead | | UPC | 044459013266 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** WEN - **Colour:** Orange - **Item weight:** 36.74 Kilograms - **Material:** Cast Iron - **Style:** Spiral Cutterhead ## Images ![WEN PL1326 15-Amp 13-Inch Spiral Benchtop Thickness Planer - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71tM87icxvL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style Name** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does Wen have carbide blades for the PL1326?** A: WEN only offers14.25x 14.25 HSS cutters for this model.
