Planers

Electric planers use a flat base and at least two rotating blades to create flat and even surfaces. With adjustable dials, safety catches, and ergonomic handles, electric planers are practical tools for wood planing. Their available features include:

• Dust Reduction: Our electric planers are compatible with all Bosch dust extraction systems via the universal hose sleeve on the side of the model. You can also use Bosch Professional GHO dust bags to ensure a clean and debris-free workspace.
• Advanced Blade Technology: Certain Bosch planers have a one-blade head that improves the battery life and blade change time of the model, helping you work more efficiently. Additionally, the new Bosch Wood Razor blade triples the cutting speed when compared to other blades.
• Ergonomic Design: Bosch cordless planers are designed with practicality and comfort in mind. Their ergonomic grip and handles provide greater flexibility and don’t rely on an external power source – perfect for carrying around the jobsite.

We offer both corded and cordless designs in our catalogue, giving you a variety of models to choose from to help you find the right tool for your needs. Additionally, features and specifications differ between each model. Here are some of our most popular wood planer machines:

• GHO 12V-20: This cordless electric hand planer uses a 12V battery pack to provide flexibility and practicality while you work. Its EC-brushless motor and optimised balance point offer extra efficiency when planing.
• GHO 18V-LI: With an 18V battery, this model uses sharp and durable carbide blades to produce high-quality cuts and accurate planing. Its soft-grip handle and lightweight design makes it easier to use around the workshop.
• GHO 40-82 C: This corded model uses 850 W of input power to offer a planing depth of 4 mm and a rotation speed of 14,000 rpm. It’s a large, powerful planer that offers excellent surface results with precise cuts.

Electric planers are handheld power tools that can perform a variety of tasks. Their fast-rotating blades at the base of the tool can move at speeds of up to 14,000 rpm in our most powerful models to trim surfaces and create even finishes. The planing depth varies between 0-4 mm, while the planing width is typically between 56 mm and 82 mm.

This makes electric planers well-suited to a variety of tasks, from preparing timber for construction to levelling surfaces for installations and painting. For example, they’re ideal for trimming timber planks and boards to ensure your building materials are the same thickness, helping you assemble accurate and measured constructions.

Our electric planers also reduce injury risks at work. Certain models, like the GHO 18V-26, have a motor brake that completely stops the blade drum in less than a second. Meanwhile, all our models are compatible with the Bosch Click & Clean dust extraction system, which reduces dust and debris in your workspace.

You can use guide rail attachments alongside our electric planers to increase the precision of your work. Our models are compatible with Bosch parallel rails, which offer improved control over your wood planing and cutting work.
