The DeWalt DCW604NT-XJ 18V XR brushless cordless router combines interchangeable fixed and plunge bases with variable speed control for trimming, edge profiling and plunge-routing tasks. Supplied in a TSTAK VI deep carry case with inlay, it keeps the router and its accessories together between jobs.

Use the fixed base for tasks such as rounding over edges and flush trimming hardwood edging, then switch to the plunge base for hinge mortises and inlay cavities. Quick-release tabs make changing bases straightforward.

Body only: battery and charger are not included. Fixed base, plunge base and TSTAK VI case are supplied.
