V-groove profile and carbide tip

This V-groove router bit cuts a precise angled channel in wood and similar materials. The carbide-tipped cutter resists wear and holds its edge longer than standard steel. A 1/2 inch shank fits common routers for stable, vibration-free operation.

Woodworkers needing decorative grooves

Ideal for sign-making, panel detailing and joinery that requires a clean V-shaped cut. Not suited for metal, masonry or plastics that demand specialised tooling. Buyers needing different groove angles or cutter diameters should select an alternative bit.

Questions about this item

How deep can the 1/2 in carbide-tipped cutter run before the shank limits the cut?

The overall length of 1 25/32 in sets the maximum depth before the shank contacts the workpiece.

Does the 0.05 lb carbide-tipped bit generate noticeable vibration or heat during extended routing?

At only 0.05 lb the bit runs light, reducing vibration and heat buildup during long sessions.
