Westward 16Y589 1/4 in carbide flush-trim router bit

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.
