Palm routers, also called trimmers or laminate trimmers, are small one-hand routers. Carpenters and cabinet makers use them to trim laminate and edge banding flush, round over and chamfer edges, cut small grooves and recess hinges.

How to choose a palm router

  • Power: 350W to 550W trimmers handle laminate and light edge work. 650W to 710W models keep their speed better with larger round-over bits and hardwood.
  • Collet: most palm routers take 1/4" shank bits. A few use 6mm, so check your bits before buying.
  • Variable speed and soft start: speed control helps with plastics and larger bits, and soft start keeps the tool from jerking when you switch it on.
  • Corded or cordless: cordless models from Makita, Bosch, DeWalt and Lotus are handy for installation work on site.
  • Bases and attachments: kits with tilt, offset or plunge bases give one tool more uses.

When you need more than a trimmer

For deep grooves, mortises and large bits, step up to a plunge router with a 1/2" collet. See all wood routers and cordless routers.

Keep a set of 1/4" shank router bits on hand, including flush trim and round-over bits for laminate and edges.
