The JP8B is a heavy-duty 200 mm (8″) jointer designed for demanding tasks and high-volume workshops. With a full-length 1780mm cast iron bed and powerful 2.2 kW [Input] motor, this machine offers the stability, accuracy, and cutting capacity required for professional joinery and cabinetry work. The longer bed provides superior support for long stock, improving the straightness and overall finish of your joints.
Fitted with a helical cutterhead fitted with 52 four-sided tungsten carbide inserts. These cutters dramatically reduce tear-out — even in difficult, curly, or highly figured timbers — and leave a smooth, near-finished surface that requires minimal sanding. Compared to conventional straight blades, helical cutterheads operate more quietly and produce a cleaner cut with less vibration.
The JP8B includes a robust rack-and-pinion fence system for quick and accurate adjustment, a fully enclosed base for safety and dust control
Supplied with 52 x carbide insert knives installed, push blocks, and fence assembly.
Ideal for Professional woodworkers, furniture makers, and high-use workshops needing a precision jointer with excellent finish quality and minimal maintenance — particularly when working with long or challenging timbers.
