Cordless Makita Router FAQs

What’s the difference between a plunge router and a trim router?

With a plunge router, you can start cutting in the middle of a workpiece by plunging the bit directly into the material. This is ideal for creating grooves, mortises, and other more intricate cuts. 

A trim router, on the other hand, is more compact and better suited for light tasks like edge trimming and detail work.

What is the difference between a router and a laminate trimmer?

While both tools are similar, a router is more powerful and versatile. Routers can handle a wide range of tasks, including shaping, jointing, and plunge cutting. On the other hand, a laminate trimmer is designed specifically for trimming laminates and lighter edging tasks. For this reason, routers like the Makita cordless ½-inch router provide greater flexibility.

What can you do with a cordless router?

A cordless router is ideal for cutting grooves, creating decorative edges, trimming laminates, and carving intricate designs. Makita's cordless models are portable, allowing you to work freely — even on remote job sites. For added versatility, Makita cordless trimmers with a plunge base let you tackle more complex applications like inlays and dadoes.

Are brushless routers better?

Yes, brushless routers offer several advantages, including improved efficiency, longer runtime, and reduced maintenance. Many Makita cordless routers feature brushless motors, ensuring reliable performance and durability for even the most demanding jobs.
