TSC13 – Straight Slot Cutter – 1/4 × 4mm × 4 Teeth Bearing Guide Teethype Applications

Use this T-slot cutter when the project needs a controlled cut rather than a rough material-removal pass. It can support cabinet doors, drawer fronts, panels, trim pieces, furniture components, jigs or decorative woodworking details depending on the profile and setup.

How to Choose the Right Setup

• Confirm slot width, neck diameter, cutting depth, shank size and the hardware or tenon profile that must fit the groove.
• Match the shank exactly to the router collet or spindle holder.
• Check the work material, including hardwood, softwood, MDF, plywood or laminated panels.
• Use a test cut to confirm profile depth, fit and surface finish before routing finished stock.

Use and Maintenance Tips

For a cleaner edge, use steady feed pressure, remove material in multiple passes when the profile is large, and clear chips before heat builds up. Keep the cutting edge clean and inspect the bit before repeat work. A dull or dirty cutter can cause burning, chatter and rough surfaces even when the router setup is correct.
