Our take on the Metabo HPT 36V Plunge Router M3612DAM

The Metabo HPT M3612DAM is a cordless 36V plunge router built for trim and mid-size routing away from an outlet. It delivers up to 2 peak horsepower and a no-load range of 11,000 to 25,000 rpm, with soft start, variable speed and a spindle lock for bit changes. It accepts 1/2-inch and 1/4-inch collets and works with a template guide set, dust collector and straight guide. At about 6.9 lbs it is lighter than most corded 2 HP plunge routers, but it runs on Metabo HPT's 36V MultiVolt batteries, so runtime and total value depend on the platform you already own.

Questions and answers

Does it come with batteries and a charger?
The kit version (M3612DAM) includes batteries and a charger. Confirm the exact bundle before buying, since bare-tool versions exist.
Can it use 1/4-inch bits as well as 1/2-inch?
Yes. It ships with 1/2-inch and 1/4-inch collets, so both shank sizes fit.
How long does a battery last while routing?
That depends on the battery, bit and material. Light trim work with a 4.0Ah pack lasts far longer than heavy plunges in hardwood.
Is it a true plunge router?
Yes. It has a plunge base with depth adjustment, so you can set depth stops and plunge into the work.
Will it fit standard template guides and dust collection?
It is listed as compatible with a template guide set, dust collector set and straight guide from Metabo HPT.
How does it compare with a corded 2 HP router?
It matches the power class on paper and is lighter, but a corded router gives unlimited runtime for long production runs.
Where is the Metabo HPT 36V Plunge Router M3612DAM cheapest?
At Walmart, for $398.35, 15% under what the other stores charge, as of our latest check.
Where can I buy the Metabo HPT 36V Plunge Router M3612DAM?
9 stores we checked sell it, including Walmart, Zoro, Gap Power, Laundry Owners Warehouse, Beaver Industrial Supply.
