Straight Router Bit 3/16" (4.762mm)

Classification: Standard (Yellow)

The straight router bit is an essential, versatile workhorse in any woodworking shop, designed to make clean, straight cuts into a workpiece.

Characterized by its flat bottom and parallel cutting edges—often featuring two flutes and a durable carbide tip—this bit is the go-to tool for a wide range of basic and complex routing applications. It excels at creating square-sided, flat-bottomed recesses such as grooves, dadoes (grooves cut across the wood grain), rabbets (shoulders cut along the edge), and mortises for strong joinery and shelving.

Available in a vast array of diameters and lengths, including specialized variations like flush-trim and pattern bits with guide bearings, a quality straight bit ensures precision and consistent results across various materials, including natural woods and wood composites.

This fundamental cutter is valued for its ability to deliver smooth, accurate cuts for cabinet construction, inlay work, and general edge-trimming tasks, making it a foundational and cost-effective accessory for both novice and professional woodworkers.

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

Use at correct RPM and feed rate to avoid burning or tear-out.
Make multiple shallow passes rather than one deep cut.
Ensure the bit is securely clamped in the collet and the router is stable before routing.
On long slots, retract and clear chips often to maintain cut quality.

Pro Tip

Start with a pilot groove or guide bearing to keep the bit tracking true in template work.
When cutting deep slots, use a spiral bit or add a bottoming pass to clean the floor of the cut.
