Known as a Jack Plane (as in "Jack of all trades") the #62 is a versatile plane that can handle a wide range of tasks. Due to it's low angle setting it can be used to do rough work, general smoothing, smoothing of long wild grains, or shaving end grain.
This update of Stanley's #62 "Sweetheart" plane has a ductile cast iron base and frog that are cast as one piece to deliver maximum stability to the iron and reduce chatter.
The body is fully stress relieved and aged before it is precision machined for flatness and perpendicularity between the soles and side. It's heavier body deadens vibrations for increased performance.
Includes a 2" wide A2 steel blade that is .188" thick, and through-hardened in a controlled atmosphere to an Rc 60-62, for chatter reduction and better edge retention.
Plane is approximately 2-3/8" wide and has an overall length of 13-3/4". Cherry handle and tote. Limited lifetime warranty. Mexico/UK
