Overview
At 3.25 horsepower and up to 21,000 RPM, the Triton TRI-523504 is a corded router built for serious cutting power. It weighs 13 pounds, consistent with a full-size plunge router rather than a compact trim router.
- 3.25 horsepower motor
- 21,000 RPM top speed
- AC corded power
- 13 pound tool weight
Who it's for
Woodworkers who need real cutting power and continuous corded runtime for large or repeated jobs. Not a fit for someone wanting a light, compact trim router for small edge work, given the 13 pound weight.
Pros and cons
- 3.25 horsepower motor for demanding cuts
- 21,000 RPM top speed
- AC power removes battery runtime limits
- 13 pounds is heavy for handheld use
- Corded design limits mobility
- 4.2 rating trails others in this batch
Performance notes
The 3.25 horsepower motor and 21,000 RPM top speed give the TRI-523504 enough power to drive large bits through hardwood without bogging down, typical of a full-size plunge router class. Being AC powered removes any battery runtime concern, but the corded design and 13 pound weight make it better suited to a router table or fixed setup than extended handheld overhead work.
