Chamfer Router Bit for Precise Edge Profiling
The Westward 16Y541 chamfer router bit features a carbide-tipped 1 1/2 inch cutter diameter for clean angled cuts. It is built for routing tasks that require a consistent bevel profile on wood or composite materials. The fractional inch shank fits standard 1/2 inch collets found on many professional and benchtop routers. Weighing 0.3 units, it offers stable handling during extended profiling runs.
Ideal for Woodworkers Creating Uniform Bevels
This bit suits cabinetmakers, joiners and hobbyists who need reliable chamfer edges on panels, frames or trim. The carbide tips maintain sharpness longer than standard steel when cutting abrasive sheet goods. Users requiring different chamfer angles, smaller cutter diameters or bearing-guided profiles should consider alternative bits. The single-profile design does not accommodate variable-angle adjustments.

Questions about this item
What router collet size is required for the 1/2 in shank on the 16Y541 bit?
The bit has a 1/2 in shank so the router must accept a 1/2 in collet or a compatible 1/2 in collet adapter.
Will the 1 1/2 in cutter diameter on the 16Y541 clear the base opening on an older fixed-base router?
The 1 1/2 in cutter needs a base opening at least that wide; measure the existing router's base hole to confirm clearance before use.
