0.0625″ (1/16″) Chip Breaker Carbide Router .315″ LOC Drill Point 1/8″ Shank R159

Description

This chip breaker carbide router features a 0.0625″ (1/16″) cutting diameter,.315″ LOC, 1-1/2″ overall length, and a 1/8″ shank,making it ideal for precision routing in abrasive composite materials.

The chip breaker geometry uses a segmented cutting edge designed tobreak chips into smaller pieces, helping improve chip evacuation, reduce clogging,and minimize heat buildup during cutting.
