Powermatic® PJ1696T 16" Parallelogram Jointer with ArmorGlide & Helical Head Cutter 3PH 460V

Description

Now featuring armorglide technology that is low-friction and rust-resistant the Powermatic® PJ1696T 16-inch jointer offers big capacity and performance in a machine that is loaded with features. A large center-mounted fence assembly adjusts easily on a rack and pinion system with ram lock. Preset stops on the fence body allow for fast angle set up at 45 degrees in and out and a positive stop for perfect 90-degree angles.

The parallelogram design keeps the table in close proximity to the cutterhead for improved finish and allows for a fast depth of cut adjustment. This design also ensures the tables remain perfectly parallel even after years of tough duty. The specially-designed solid steel helical cutterhead consists of six rows of precision-ground staggered inserts.

This system makes fast work of knife changing and never needs adjustment. The heavy-duty 7-1/2-HP motor delivers all the power you need for even the biggest jobs.
