Straight Router Bit Two Flute Metric

Cutting Diameter: 8mm
Classification: Standard (Yellow)

The Two-Flute Straight Router Bit is an indispensable tool for woodworkers and fabricators requiring a blend of speed and superior finish in their straight-line cutting operations.

Featuring two balanced, opposing cutting edges measured in precise metric diameters, this bit offers reduced vibration and a smoother cut compared to single-flute alternatives. The dual-flute design ensures that two cutting strikes occur per revolution, leading to a much cleaner finish on the material surface and edges.

This robust bit is ideally suited for creating high-quality, professional grooves, dadoes, rabbets, and precise edge-trimming in a wide range of materials, including hardwoods, softwoods, plywood, and various composite sheets, making it a highly versatile and essential addition for both table-mounted and handheld metric routing applications.

Application:

Router bits are for use with router machines only.
Be sure that at least 3/4 of the shaft length is inserted into the router collet.
Do not "bottom-out" the bit in the collet. The shank should be 1/8" from the bottom of the collet.
Route in two or more passes when large amounts of stock must be removed.

Extra Information

Reach depth via multiple shallow passes; clear chips between passes.
Match RPM & feed rate to material to avoid burning.
Ensure the bit is fully seated and the collet tightened before use.

Pro Tip

For hinge or hardware recesses, knife-score the outline first, then remove waste in shallow plunges for crisp edges.
On end-grain, take a light climb-cut skim to reduce breakout, then finish feeding against rotation.

Features

Straight profile for square-walled, flat-bottom cuts.
8 mm cutting diameter — versatile for grooves, slots and mortises.
Precision-ground cutting edges for smooth results and reduced tear-out.
Rigid body to minimise chatter in deeper passes.
Router-collet compatible (match shank to collet size).

Benefits

Clean finish: sharp, accurate grooves with minimal sanding.
Reliable tracking: works well with fences, jigs and templates.
All-round utility: suitable for joinery and general shop routing.

Safety

Wear eye, hearing and dust protection.
Secure the workpiece; feed against bit rotation to prevent kickback.
Let the router reach full speed before engaging; stop fully before lifting out.
Inspect bit and collet regularly; replace if dull or damaged.
