Experience smooth routing and high working efficiency with the Bosch PRO GOF 20-12 Router. Powered by a 2000W motor, this professional plunge router delivers the performance needed for demanding woodworking applications, including hardwood routing, deep groove cutting, rebating and precision edge profiling.
The powerful motor combines with constant speed electronics to maintain a stable cutting speed under load, helping achieve consistent results when working with challenging materials. Additionally, the variable speed control allows users to select a no-load speed between 10,000 and 25,000rpm, providing greater flexibility for different routing tasks and suitable cutter applications.
Precision is central to the GOF 20-12's design. Its after-lock micro depth adjustment mechanism enables fine, stepless adjustments after the plunge depth has been locked. This allows users to refine their cutting depth accurately without repeatedly resetting the entire mechanism, making it particularly useful for detailed joinery and applications requiring consistent cutting depths.
For improved stability, the router features an extendable guide plate that provides a contact surface of up to 355mm. The extended support helps maintain smoother movement across the workpiece, particularly when routing along edges or working with larger timber surfaces. Combined with the tool's robust construction, this design promotes greater control and consistent routing performance.
The ergonomically angled soft-grip handles provide a comfortable and secure grip during operation. Their design helps reduce operator fatigue during extended routing tasks, while the conveniently positioned controls allow users to make adjustments without unnecessarily interrupting their workflow.
The speed selection dial is positioned on the left-hand side of the tool, while the lockable on/off switch is located on the right handle. An easily accessible plunge lever allows controlled movement of the router during plunge-cutting applications.
Dust management is supported by dedicated extraction accessories for both surface and edge routing. These attachments allow users to connect a suitable dust extraction system, helping remove wood chips and dust from the cutting area while improving visibility and maintaining a cleaner workspace.
The Bosch PRO GOF 20-12 accommodates compatible collet diameters of 1/4" (6.35mm), 1/2" (12.7mm), 8mm and 12mm, providing flexibility for different router bit shank sizes when used with the appropriate collet. The supplied package includes 8mm and 12mm collet sets, along with routing guides and other accessories for a range of woodworking applications.
Whether cutting deep grooves in hardwood, producing rebates, trimming plywood, following templates or creating decorative edge profiles, the Bosch PRO GOF 20-12 combines power, precision and ergonomic handling to support professional woodworking results.
The Bosch PRO GOF 20-12 features a high-performance 2000W motor designed to provide the power required for demanding routing applications.
Its substantial input power makes the router suitable for working with hardwood and performing tasks such as cutting deep grooves, creating slots and producing rebates.
Combined with the router's robust construction and electronic speed control, the motor supports efficient material removal and consistent routing performance.
The integrated constant speed function helps maintain a stable cutting speed when the router encounters resistance during operation.
This is particularly beneficial when routing hardwood or performing demanding cuts where changes in material density can affect cutting performance.
By helping maintain consistent speed, the system supports smoother cutting and more uniform results throughout the routing process.
The Bosch GOF 20-12 offers a variable no-load speed range of 10,000 to 25,000rpm, allowing users to adjust the cutting speed according to their application and the router bit being used.
The speed selection dial is conveniently positioned on the left-hand side of the router for easy access.
This flexibility allows users to adapt the router's performance to different materials, cutting requirements and compatible router bit sizes, following the cutter manufacturer's recommended operating speeds.
The router features an after-lock micro depth adjustment mechanism that allows users to make precise, stepless cutting depth adjustments after locking the plunge mechanism.
This provides greater control when setting the routing depth for applications that require accurate and repeatable results.
The fine adjustment specification is 16mm, offering additional adjustment capability for detailed woodworking tasks.
This feature is particularly useful when creating rebates, grooves and other joints where accurate depth control is essential.
The Bosch PRO GOF 20-12 incorporates an extendable guide plate that provides a contact surface of up to 355mm.
The extended support surface helps improve stability and control while moving the router across the workpiece.
This is especially beneficial when routing along timber edges or working on larger surfaces where additional support can contribute to smoother operation.
The router features ergonomically angled soft-grip handles designed to provide comfortable handling and secure control during operation.
The handle arrangement helps minimise operator fatigue, particularly during longer woodworking sessions or repetitive routing tasks.
The lockable on/off switch is positioned on the right handle, while the speed selection dial is located on the left for convenient operation.
An easily accessible plunge lever allows users to control the router's plunge movement during cutting operations.
This supports convenient depth positioning and controlled operation when creating grooves, slots and other plunge-routed features.
Combined with the after-lock micro adjustment mechanism, the plunge system helps users achieve accurate cutting depths.
The Bosch PRO GOF 20-12 supports dust extraction for both surface and edge routing applications.
Dedicated extraction attachments help collect wood chips and dust generated during cutting when connected to a compatible dust extraction system.
This helps maintain a clearer view of the cutting area and reduces the amount of loose debris accumulating on the workpiece and surrounding workspace.
A compatible dust extractor or workshop vacuum is required and is not included in the supplied package.
The GOF 20-12 is designed for a variety of demanding woodworking applications. Its powerful motor, adjustable speed and precise depth control allow users to tackle both material removal and detailed finishing tasks.
From creating deep grooves and slots in hardwood to trimming plywood edges and producing decorative profiles, the router provides the versatility required for professional woodworking and furniture-making projects.
Please Note: Although the router supports 1/4" (6.35mm), 1/2" (12.7mm), 8mm and 12mm collet sizes, only the 8mm and 12mm collet sets are listed as included. Other collet sizes must be obtained separately if required.
Please Note: Router bits and a dust extraction machine are not listed in the supplied package and must be obtained separately if required.
