Powermatic 60 for Accurate Jointing on Long Stock
Choose the Right Cutterhead for Your Work
Select the 60C with three high-speed steel straight knives for traditional jointing performance, or the 60HH helical cutterhead with 54 four-sided carbide inserts for smoother finishes, reduced noise, and less tear-out.
73-Inch Precision-Ground Bed Supports Longer Boards
The extended cast iron table provides stability and alignment for accurate jointing on long workpieces, improving consistency across the full 8-inch cutting width.
Worm Gear Fence System for Controlled Adjustments
The handwheel-operated worm gear system allows smooth, precise fence tilting, while the non-marring insert protects the table surface during adjustments.
Efficient Setup and Safer Operation
A quick-adjust infeed lever enables rapid height positioning followed by fine depth control. The high-mounted switch improves access and visibility, while magnetic push blocks stay within reach for safer operation.
