Ingco Electric Router RT22001 2200W Industrial 6-12mm Collet

Our review

The Ingco RT22001 is a corded industrial router built for mains power at 220V to 240V and 50 to 60Hz. Its 2200W motor runs between 9000 and 23000 rpm, and the variable range matters more than the headline wattage: slower speeds suit large-diameter bits and harder timber, while the top end favours small straight and trimming bits in softer wood. The 0 to 60mm plunge capacity covers deep mortises and stepped cuts, and the 6, 8 and 12mm collet capacity lets you use the three common shank sizes sold locally. This suits carpenters, joiners and serious workshop users who need sustained cutting rather than occasional DIY trimming. Before buying, confirm your mains supply matches the stated voltage and frequency, check that the bits you own fit one of the three collet sizes, and think about whether you need a fixed-base or plunge router for the work you do. Compare against other 2200W-class plunge routers on collet range, plunge depth and speed control, since those determine the bits and cuts available to you. A router of this power is heavy and best used with both hands and a stable workpiece. Available on Sokonia.
