Tork Craft Router Bit — Straight 8 mm
The Tork Craft 8 mm straight router bit delivers clean, flat-bottom grooves, dados and recesses in wood, MDF and plywood. A go-to size for cabinet work, hardware pockets and template routing with excellent control and finish quality.
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.
