DeWalt DCP580 planer combines Sheartak Spiral Cutter head, power, efficiency, and portability, making it an excellent choice for professional and DIY applications. Its brushless motor ensures optimal efficiency and maintains consistent speed under load. With a 3-1/4-inch width capacity, the planer offers precise depth adjustments in 1/256-inch increments and a rebate capacity of 5/64 inches. Weighing only 6.8 lbs., it is lightweight, cordless, and compatible with the DEWALT 20V MAX* battery system, allowing hassle-free transportation and use on the jobsite.
This tool is sold as a bare unit (batteries and charger not included). It's 90% new tool, not in the original box.
Key Features:
Sheartak Spiral Cutterhead: Featuring 14 carbide inserts arranged along four spirals, this innovative design delivers an exceptional shear cut, leaving a smooth surface finish on any board. Each carbide insert is equipped with four cutting edges, offering a blade lifespan up to 50 times longer than traditional HSS blades.
Brushless Motor: Delivers enhanced power and runtime.
Cutting Performance: Operates at 32,000 cuts per minute for fast material removal.
Depth of Cut: Maximum of 5/64 inches (2 mm) with a calibrated adjustment knob for precise settings up to approximately 1/16 inches (1.5 mm).
Durable Build: Precision-machined front and back aluminum shoes ensure parallel cuts.
Kickstand Feature: Prevents surface damage by allowing the planer to rest safely.
Edge Chamfering: Front shoe includes a precision-machined groove for easy edge chamfering.
Poly-V Drive Belt: Provides increased durability for long-term use.
Ergonomic Design: Comfortable handle reduces fatigue during extended use.
Compatibility: The planer works best with DEWALT battery models DCB205, DCB205G, DCB205CK, DCB205-2, DCBP520, DCBP520-2, and DCBP520C. Batteries and charger must be purchased separately.

Do I need to replace the original bearings?
If the bearings in your machine are in good condition, they can be reused by carefully removing them with a bearing or pulley puller. However, if the bearings are tightly pressed onto the shaft, removal may cause damage. To minimize this risk, we recommend replacing old bearings with our greased and sealed bearings, designed for long-lasting performance. For a smooth upgrade, we suggest adding the bearings to your shopping cart before completing your purchase.
We provide premium bearings from NSK, SKF, NTN, FAG, Timken. They are renowned for their high quality and performance, designed to provide durability and reliability in various applications
If you add the bearings to your order, we will preinstall them for you when premounting is possible, saving you the hassle of doing it yourself.
Do I need to to Add a Few Boxes of Carbide Inserts
We provide 5 carbide inserts and 5 screws as spare parts. However, many of our customers choose to purchase additional boxes, as the shipping costs for separate purchases can make it less economical.
Do I need a Torque Wrench?
To securely lock the carbide inserts, we recommend applying a torque of 48 to 52 Pound-Inches (or 5.42 to 5.88 Newton-Meters). (Note: 1 Newton-Meter is equal to 8.851 Pound-Inches, and 1 Pound-Inch is approximately 0.113 Newton-Meters.) It is crucial not to apply excessive torque, as this could cause the carbide inserts to crack or explode. On the other hand, using too little torque may result in the inserts not being properly secured, which could lead to cracks, shattering, or uneven height on the cutter block, causing ridges or lines on the board.
If one person is responsible for maintaining the machine, they can typically apply the same torque consistently without a torque wrench. However, when multiple people are involved in machine maintenance, ensuring uniform torque application can be challenging. For consistency and peace of mind, we recommend using a torque wrench.
What kind of steel the cutter block is made of?
The cutter block is constructed using GB/T 40Cr, a structural alloy steel of the same caliber as ASTM grade 5140, AISI 5140, SAE 5140, DIN 41Cr4, BS 41Cr4, JIS SCr440, and EN 41Cr4.The primary components of this steel are as follows: carbon (C) at a range of 0.37-0.44%, silicon (Si) between 0.17-0.37%, manganese (Mn) within 0.50-0.80%, and chromium (Cr) from 0.80-1.10%.
In terms of physical properties, this steel exhibits a tensile strength range of 115-234σb/MPa, a yield strength of 2σ 0.2 ≥/MPa, and an elongation capacity of 65 δ5≥ (%). It also has a HBS range of 123-321 and a HRC rating of 30.
This alloy steel is frequently utilized in low to moderately stressed components for machines, engines, and vehicles.
