Bosch 1617EVS-46 2.25 HP 12 Amp Variable Speed Fixed Base Corded Router Kit Reconditioned Constant Response Circuitry Depth Adjustment Woodworking

Achieve Industrial Precision with the Legendary Bosch 2.25 HP Variable Speed Router

The Bosch 1617EVS-46 Factory-Reconditioned Electronic Fixed-Base Router is a benchmark tool for professional woodworkers and serious hobbyists who demand unwavering power and accuracy. Driven by a formidable 12 Amp motor, this router delivers 2.25 horsepower to tackle the toughest hardwoods and complex profiles with ease. Integrated Constant Response Circuitry ensures the motor maintains a consistent speed throughout your cut, stabilizing start-up torque and preventing bog-down under heavy loads. Whether you are milling dovetails, hogging out deep mortises, or performing delicate edge work with templates and jigs, this router provides the smooth, clean results that define high-end craftsmanship.

Engineered for versatility and ease of use, the 1617EVS-46 features a variable-speed dial allowing you to match the bit speed to the specific material and bit diameter. The Bosch Precision Centering Design ensures your bits stay perfectly centered within the sub-base, a critical feature for accurate template-guided work. For table-mounted applications, the included RA1161 fixed base features a specialized system for adjusting bit height from above the table, eliminating the need to reach under your workspace. With its dust-sealed power switch and classic rounded hardwood handles for maximum control, this router is built to perform in the most demanding shop environments.

Note: This is a manufacturer-reconditioned tool, certified to look and perform like new.

Specifications

Pro-Tip: To ensure the longest life for your motor and bits, always select the lowest RPM setting that produces a clean cut for larger diameter bits. Lowering the speed reduces heat buildup and vibration, which prevents burning the wood and protects the Constant Response circuitry from unnecessary strain during heavy material removal.
