Makita 793346-8 306mm 2012Nb Planer Blades Twin Pack For Models

Yes. These blades are specifically designed to fit Makita 12-inch planers models 2012 and 2012NB, ensuring proper seating and consistent performance.

They’re made from high-speed steel for durability and sharpness, feature a double-edged design for extended life, are reversible to double usage time, precision-ground for smooth and accurate cuts, and are easy to install in compatible Makita planers.

1) Unplug the planer. 2) Remove the blade adjustment cover and locate the blade bolts. 3) Loosen the bolts and carefully remove the old blade. 4) Insert the new blade with the cutting edge oriented correctly and ensure both blades sit evenly. 5) Re-tighten the bolts and reassemble. 6) Run a test cut on scrap wood and adjust depth if needed.

Start with the edge that currently shows the sharpest cutting surface. When that edge dulls, flip the blade to its other edge to maximize lifespan and maintain performance.

They’re ideal for professional and DIY woodworking tasks that require clean, smooth finishes on boards, including dimensioning rough lumber, flattening stock, and producing ready-to-use surfaces.

Always unplug the planer before handling blades. Wear safety glasses and cut-resistant gloves, handle blades by the edges, keep blades away from children, and store them in their protective packaging when not in use.

These Makita blades offer a durable HSS material, double-edged and reversible design, and a precise 306 mm length for compatibility with 12-inch planers. When comparing with alternatives on Fepy, consider blade material (HSS vs other steels), edge count (single vs double-edged), length, and compatibility with your planer model.

A twin-pack provides two blades in one purchase, giving you a spare ready edge and enabling you to rotate or flip blades to extend cutting life, which reduces downtime and can lower overall replacement costs.

Durability comes from the high-speed steel construction and the reversible, double-edged design. Life will vary with usage, stock quality, and machine setup, but the design aims to deliver longer edge life and consistent cuts compared with single-edge alternatives.

Store blades in their protective packaging in a dry, clean place. Inspect for nicks or dullness before use, handle them carefully by the edges, and avoid bending or dropping the blades to maintain their sharpness.

Yes. The two blades in a pack, along with the reversible design, provide extended life between replacements and reduce downtime, making them a cost-effective choice for professional woodworking where consistent, high-quality finishes are required.
