Router Bit - Surface Trim 6 Flute - D=50mm H=13mm L=58mm S=1/2"

TCT Router Bits
Each router bit features diamond ground, micro-grain tungsten carbide tipped blades. This tighter micro-grain structure means the blades offer long lasting hardness and superior edge retention. The body of each bit has been turned and then milled with uncompromising precision from a single piece of 4140 high tensile steel to give perfect balance for reduced vibration and therefore smoother cuts. 4140 steel has been chosen because of its toughness, high fatigue strength, and abrasion and impact resistance. The tungsten carbide tips are then brazed onto the bodies using induction to create an extremely strong joint that safely holds under the high stresses that occur when routing. The router bits are suitable for use on softwoods, hardwoods, veneers, laminates and composite materials.

Surface Trim Bits
Surface trim bits are used for the machining and clearing of large areas of material, ideal for use in a router flattening sled. The radii on the bottom cutting edges allow the bit to more easily ramp into the material, easing the transition from one pass to the next and reducing the sharp 'tramlines' typically left by the sharp edges of spoilboard surfacing bits. The 6 fluted design leaves an exceptionally clean and smooth surface finish, at the cost of a reduced feed rate compared to the 3 flute bit. These bits can also be used to trim timber edge banding.

Superior Finish and Performance
The shearing angle of the cutting edges ensure they remain in constant contact with the workpiece to allow a smoother, slicing cut which eliminates tear-out and gives a mirror finish. The bits feature right hook angles which further enhances the cut due to the fast removal of chips. These bits feature an anti-kickback design which limits the feed rate of the material being cut to decrease the likelihood of a kickback, meaning each bit conforms to strict German DIN standards to ensure maximum operator safety. ©
