Description
This is a description of a straight bit, a two-flute bit, and a PRO-TECH router bit. The straight bit has the shortest cutting edges and shortest overall length, while the two-flute bit has the fine finish that is paramount. The bit has a 6.35mm shank, which will fit most small routers. The PRO-TECH router bit is manufactured in Taiwan.
Double flute Straight bit
In choosing a straight bit for any application, always select one with the shortest cutting edges and the shortest overall length that will reach the required cut depth. Excessive length intensifies deflection and vibration, which degrade cut quality and lead to tool breakage. Use a two-flute bit where fine finish is paramount. Two flutes balance the bit, eliminating vibration that degrades the cut finish. Two cuts per revolution yield a smooth surface, but feed rate is slightly reduced. This router bit has a
6.35mm shank (shaft) that will fit most small routers. Please ensure that you select a router bit with a shank (shaft) size that will fit into your router collet.
