Dewalt DNP612 Router Plunge Base 1/4 Inch Collet

Product Description

The DEWALT DNP612 is a router plunge base with a 1/4 inch collet, designed as an accessory for the DEWALT compact router lineup. The plunge base converts a fixed-base compact router into a plunge-routing configuration, allowing controlled vertical entry into workpieces. This type of accessory is commonly installed by carpenters, cabinetmakers, and finish woodworkers who need precise depth control for mortising, inlay routing, and similar applications. The included 1/4 inch collet accepts standard 1/4 inch shank router bits. The unit ships as a single package item.

The DNP612 plunge base is intended for use with the DEWALT DWP611 and DWP611PK compact routers. It is a direct-fit accessory for those specific tools and is suited for residential finish work, cabinetry, furniture building, and light commercial millwork applications. The plunge base mechanism allows the router motor to travel vertically along guide columns while the base remains flat on the work surface, enabling repeatable plunge depth stops during operation.

Follow the router manufacturer instructions for securing the motor unit into the base and for adjusting plunge depth stops. Do not exceed the collet size rating when selecting router bits.
