Achieve Precise 5/8 Inch Grooves and Smooth Finishes with the Freud Straight Router Bit
Execute general-purpose routing tasks with unmatched precision using the Freud 12-138 5/8 Inch Double Flute Straight Bit. This versatile cutter is a workshop staple, perfectly sized for cutting 5/8-inch wide dados, mortising for hardware, or creating strong rabbet joints. Supported by a robust 1/2-inch shank, the bit offers superior rigidity compared to smaller shanks, significantly reducing vibration and chatter during deep cuts. It is constructed from Freud's exclusive TiCo Hi-Density Carbide, a specialized formulation designed to retain a razor-sharp edge up to four times longer than standard carbide, even when working with abrasive materials like plywood and composites.
The 12-138 is engineered not just for durability, but for finish quality. Its computer-balanced double flute geometry features precision-ground hook and shear angles that slice cleanly through wood fibers, leaving a smooth surface that often requires no sanding. The bit also features end-relieved tips, allowing for efficient plunge cutting to start blind grooves or pockets in the center of a panel. Whether you are using a CNC machine for production work, a table router for joinery, or a hand-held router for onsite tasks, this bit delivers professional, splinter-free results in hardwood, softwood, and laminates.
Key Features
- Versatile 5/8 Inch Diameter: Ideal for hardware mortising, wide dados, and general stock removal.
- TiCo Hi-Density Carbide: Proprietary blend resists heat and wear for maximum edge life.
- Heavy-Duty Shank: 1/2-inch shank ensures stability and minimizes vibration for cleaner cuts.
- Plunge Ready: Relieved tip geometry allows for vertical drilling and pocketing applications.
- Clean Finishes: Shear angles are engineered to reduce tearing and produce smooth edges.
- Versatile Compatibility: Safe for use in CNC, table-mounted, and hand-held routers.
