Straight Router Bit Two Flute Metric

Cutting Diameter: 12mm
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

Make multiple shallow passes for deep cuts; clear chips between passes.
Match RPM & feed rate to the material to avoid burning.
Ensure the bit is fully seated and the collet is tight before use.
Use dust extraction where possible for better visibility and surface quality.

Pro Tip

For hinge or hardware pockets, score the outline with a knife, then remove waste with a series of shallow plunges to keep edges crisp.
On end-grain cuts, take a light climb-cut pass to reduce breakout, then complete the cut feeding against rotation.

Features

Straight profile for clean, square-walled cuts.
12 mm cutting diameter — versatile width for dados and recesses.
Precision-ground edges for smooth finish and reduced tear-out.
Rigid body helps minimise chatter in deeper passes.
Router-collet compatible (use the correctly sized shank/collet).

Benefits

Clean finish: flat-bottom grooves with minimal sanding.
Accurate tracking: performs well with fences, jigs and templates.
All-rounder: suitable for joinery and general shop routing tasks.

Safety

Wear eye & hearing protection; use a dust mask or extraction.
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 worn or damaged.
