Dovetail Router Bit — 6 mm Shank
Cut precise dovetail joints, sliding dovetails, and decorative bevels with a durable, clean-cutting bit.
Built from 45# steel and finished with a heat-resistant PTFE (Teflon) coating to reduce friction and resin build-up.
A sealed, pre-lubricated bearing (where applicable) delivers smooth tracking for consistent results in wood, MDF, and plywood.
Recommended spindle speed: 18,000–24,000 RPM; feed rate: 8–12 m/min (~26–39 ft/min).
