Flush-trim bit with carbide tip
The Westward 16Y589 is a flush-trim router bit with a 1/4 in cutter diameter and carbide-tipped flutes. It trims laminate, veneer or solid-wood edging flush to a substrate using a bearing-guided profile. The fractional-inch shank fits standard 1/4 in collets on hand-held or table-mounted routers.
Best for straight-edge trimming tasks
Woodworkers who need a dedicated bit for flush-trimming straight edges on sheet goods or face frames will find this tool suitable. It is not intended for heavy stock removal, deep mortising, or profiling complex curves where a larger-diameter or spiral-flute cutter would be required.

Questions about this item
How much heat does the 16Y589 generate when running all day?
The carbide-tipped cutter produces minimal heat during extended routing because the sharp edges reduce friction against the workpiece.
What router collet size must I already own for the 16Y589 to work?
The bit has a 1/4 in shank, so your router needs a 1/4 in collet or a compatible reducer sleeve.
