Two flute Metric Straight bit
Carbide TippedThis bit is used for cutting shallow mortises for hinges and locksets. Its cutting geometry is calculated to produce an exceptionally clean cut with crisp edges. A proper mortising bit, as pictured, should have a large gullet between the two flutes.
Carbide tipped cutting edges feature outstanding cutting tool longevity and performance. Pro-Tech router bits cut through a variety of materials from wood, plywood, MDF and other wood composites, plastics, and solid surfaces.
Use a two-flute bit where fine finish is paramount. Two flutes balance the bit, eliminating vibration that degrades the cut finish.Two cuts per revolution yield a smooth surface, but feed rate is slightly reduced.
This router bit has a6.35mm shank (shaft) that will fit most small routers. Please ensure that you select a router bit with a shank (shaft) size that will fit into your router collet.
PRO-TECH router bits are manufactured in Taiwan.

To use router bits safely (and to get the best results from your router), the router bits need to be installed properly into the router's collet. Improper installation of your bits can cause excessive chatter and could increase the likelihood that the bits will break when in use.
First of all, before beginning any routing operation, check your bits to make sure that they are clean, relatively free of pitch, and most of all, sharp. If the bit is dull, chipped, is excessively burned or has any other defect, it should be sharpened or replaced before use.
Correct collet and collet nut fitMost router collets have a recess (groove) that needs to click into a circlip that resides inside the collet nut. Failing to ensure that the collet "clicked" into the collet nut will cause you to struggle to remove the router bit after tightening. This could cause the collet to break or be removed by a technical repair centre.
