Solid carbide router bit

This solid carbide router bit is designed for CNC routing of MDF and wood. The upcut spiral geometry lifts chips away from the cut for cleaner edges. It suits professional woodworkers and sign makers who need precise material removal. The cutter diameter is 3/16 in.

Best for finish cuts, not heavy hogging

The upcut action excels at producing a smooth top surface on sheet goods. It is less suited for deep slotting or aggressive roughing where chip evacuation could become difficult. Buyers who need a compression spiral for double-sided laminate should look at a different geometry. This bit is intended for handheld or CNC router use only.

3/16 in cutter diameter decides fit

The 3/16 in cutting diameter determines the smallest internal radius and the width of the groove produced. Verify that your router collet accepts this shank size before ordering. The solid carbide construction resists wear in abrasive composites. No other dimension governs compatibility.

Questions about this item

Will the 52-260 upcut bit fit my 3/16 in collet router?

The cutter diameter is 3/16 in, matching a standard 3/16 in collet. The solid carbide shank is ground to the same nominal size for a secure fit.

How do I know the 52-260 is cutting cleanly in MDF after install?

A proper upcut spiral pulls chips upward; you should see steady chip ejection, minimal tear-out on the top face, and a smooth bottom edge with no burning.

Does the 52-260 come with a collet, wrench or bearing guide?

The box contains only the solid carbide router bit. Collets, wrenches and bearing guides are sold separately.
