Carbide alignment tool

The Onsrud 60-249 is a solid carbide alignment hand tool designed for precision routing tasks. It features an upcut spiral geometry and a 1/2 inch cutter diameter suited for plastic and wood applications. The tool weighs 0.3 units and is supplied new.

Suitable users and limitations

This tool suits machinists and fabricators who need a durable carbide bit for upward chip evacuation in plastic or wood. It is not for buyers who require a downcut or compression spiral for top-surface finish quality. Operators needing a different cutter diameter or shank size must select another model.

Decisive specification

The 1/2 inch cutter diameter is the single specification that determines whether this bit matches the programmed tool path and workpiece requirements. Verify this dimension against your CAD/CAM setup before purchase. An incorrect diameter will produce out-of-tolerance parts.

Questions about this item

What router collet size do I need to hold the 1/2 in cutter diameter?

Use a 1/2 in collet that matches your router's spindle; the shank is ground to that diameter so it seats fully without an adapter.

Will the up-cut spiral pull chips clear on dense hardwoods the same way it does on plastics?

The up-cut geometry evacuates chips upward in both material groups; on dense hardwoods you may need a slower feed rate to avoid lifting the workpiece.

How can I confirm the carbide edge stays sharp after the first few cuts?

Inspect the cut edge for clean shearing without tear-out; a consistent surface finish across the first 21 passes indicates the carbide is holding its geometry.
