W1874 Shop Fox 15" Helical Cutterhead Planer

Save money by planing rough lumber at a lower cost, which can be smoothed and flattened to create finished boards.

The W1874 15" Fixed Table Planer features a powerful 3 HP motor and 5200 RPM, 4-row helical cutterhead.

The 48 carbide inserts have four cutting edges make for ultra-smooth finishes in figured wood and last up to 10 times longer than conventional knives.

The inserts sit at a slight angle to the for smooth shearing cuts, minimized tearout, a smoother finish, and operating at lower noise levels.

The fixed table height design allows for permanent infeed/outfeed roller setups for greater efficiency in production settings.

The 2-speed gearbox allows you to choose between 16 and 28 FPM for a smooth finish or high production feed rate.

Sturdy four-column supports with twin gas struts on either side make for easy headstock height adjustments.

Like all Shop Fox planers, the W1874 comes with a 2-year warranty which covers parts and assures the unit is free from factory defects. (Consumables are not covered by the warranty.)

The W1874 manual was written by our U.S.-based Technical Documentation Department and is packed with useful information. The complete and easy-to-read manual makes it easier to assemble and maintain your planer.
