Straight router bit for clean grooves

The Westward 16Y595 is a carbide-tipped straight router bit with a 3/4 in cutter diameter and a 1/4 in shank. Its overall length is 2 5/16 in and the cutting length is 1 in. The carbide tips resist wear longer than high-speed steel when cutting hardwood, plywood or soft plastics.

Best for edge-forming and dado work

Woodworkers who need a reliable straight bit for grooving, mortising or trimming will find this size practical for many cabinet and furniture tasks. Builders who require a bearing-guided profile bit, a larger shank diameter or a spiral-flute design for chip evacuation should look at other options.

Questions about this item

What shank size fits the 16Y595 router bit?

The 16Y595 uses a 1/4 in shank, so it fits any router collet that accepts a quarter‑inch shank.

How do I install the 16Y595 bit, and what step is often missed?

Insert the shank fully into the collet, then tighten the collet nut securely; the step many skip is verifying the bit is seated all the way before final tightening.
