Crafted from high-grade thermoset phenolic, it delivers a rigid, distortion-free mounting solution compatible with all fixed-base, plunge, and trim routers up to 200mm base diameter and 8kg weight. The universal design suits a wide range of homemade or commercial table tops, making it a trusted choice for joinery workshops and serious hobbyists alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe plate is produced from\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003ereinforced thermoset phenolic\u003c\/b\u003e, a material favoured for its high rigidity, excellent vibration damping, and resistance to warping under load or heat. Unlike aluminium alternatives, phenolic remains dimensionally stable even after prolonged use, and its non-conductive nature eliminates any risk of electrical shock. Each plate is precision-moulded to 9.5mm thickness, with a slight 0.8mm crown to guarantee flatness once installed. The underside features concentric rings and radial centring lines, allowing accurate marking and drilling for any router base. This approach eliminates misalignment, a common problem with generic plates. The included snap-out rings (98mm, 68mm, 32mm) accommodate a full range of cutter diameters, from large panel-raising bits to guide bushings for template routing. The plate supports routers up to 8kg, with no flex or vibration during heavy routing operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensional tolerances are tightly controlled at each stage of manufacture. The 306 x 229mm footprint matches UK workshop standards, and the 9.5mm thickness is ideal for rebating into 19mm MDF or plywood tops using a 6.35mm deep by 12.7mm wide rebate. The four-corner magnetic levelling system, supplied with powerful magnets and an Allen key, allows precise adjustment so the plate sits flush with the table surface. This minimises the risk of workpiece snagging and improves cut accuracy. The plate is supplied with two snap-in rings (yellow and red), a shoulder pin for template routing, and all necessary hardware for secure mounting. Factory deburred edges guarantee safe handling and a professional finish straight from the box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMachine Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eCompatible with all routers up to 200mm base diameter and 8kg weight, requiring 306x229mm plate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlate Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e306 mm (L) x 229 mm (W) x 9.5 mm (T)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eReinforced thermoset phenolic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReducing Rings:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e98mm, 68mm, 32mm diameters (snap-in, colour-coded)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLevelling System:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e4-corner magnetic with Allen key adjustment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight Capacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eUp to 8kg router\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePack Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e1 insert plate, 2 snap-out rings, Allen key, shoulder pin, 4 magnets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturing Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eMade in the UK by Xcalibur Tooling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJoinery and cabinet making\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustom router table builds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTemplate and pattern routing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRaised panel and edge profiling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorkshop upgrades and repairs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEducational and training environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Choose Xcalibur Tooling\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThermoset phenolic for rigidity, vibration damping, and warp resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUniversal fit with precision-moulded centring guides\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMagnetic levelling system for flush installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOver 45 years of UK manufacturing expertise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrusted by professionals and quality guaranteed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eShipping \u0026amp; Returns\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll orders dispatched from Bramhall, Cheshire within 1-2 working days.
