‘Brushless’ cordless planer

Robust brushless cordless electric planer for perfect planing results

The SKIL 3980 is a powerful 20V Max cordless electric planer and part of the SKIL XP Pro Series. These tools deliver exceptional performance for serious projects, developed for professionals who make smart choices. Like all other SKIL 20V Max cordless tools, this model is powered by the industry-leading, advanced PWRCORE 20™ battery and charger technology. Brushless SKIL 3980 is ideal for planing surfaces, chamfering corners and making rabbets, thanks to its 2 mm planing depth and 82 mm planing width. The brushless motor is faster, stronger and lasts 10 times longer than a comparable brushed motor. The ergonomic design with softgrip and large depth setting knob that serves as extra front grip ensure optimum comfort and control over the tool. The high-quality blades are reversible for double the lifetime. When one side wears out, you can simply turn the blades around and continue working. You can conveniently adjust the lever of the chip ejection to the left or right to match your working situation. For a cleaner working environment, you can connect the dust bag or a standard-size vacuum cleaner to both sides of the electric planer. The convenient parking foot prevents accidental damage to your workpiece when you want to rest the tool or put it away after the job.
