Planer and jointer blades are not universal. The safest way to order is by machine brand and exact size. This guide covers the common brands and how to measure.

How to Measure Your Blade
Measure three numbers with calipers: Length (L) x Width (W) x Thickness (T), plus any mounting bore. Always measure the old blade, not the catalogue guess — a 1 mm error means it will not seat.
Brand Compatibility Notes
Industrial brands such as HOMAG, SCM and Biesse use proprietary cutter heads and are not interchangeable with portable-tool blades. Confirm the arbor and knife pocket before ordering. For spindle work, see our Integrated TCT Plain Cutter Head.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are Makita and Hitachi planer blades the same?
Often yes — many 82 x 5.5 x 1.2 mm blades fit both. Still measure your old blade to confirm.
What size blade does a Bosch planer use?
Most Bosch portable planers use 82 x 5.5 x 1.2 mm. Verify against your model number.
Can I use TCT instead of HSS on my brand?
If the size matches, yes. TCT lasts longer on hardwood and sheet goods.
Are HOMAG blades interchangeable with portable planers?
No. HOMAG and similar industrial machines use dedicated cutter heads; sizes differ.
How do I read blade size LxWxT?
Length is the cutting span, width is the blade height, thickness is the steel gauge. All three must match the knife pocket.
