Experience 2X Tool Life and Extended Reach with the Freud 1/4 Inch Black I.C.E. Straight Router Bit

Maximize your routing efficiency and durability with the Freud 04-110 1/4 Inch Double Flute Straight Bit. This premium cutter features Freud's revolutionary Black I.C.E. (Industrial Cooling Element) coating, a slick, heat-repelling shield that keeps the cutting edge running cool and prevents pitch buildup. When paired with Freud's exclusive TiCo Hi-Density Carbide, this advanced technology delivers up to 2X the cutting life and performance compared to standard uncoated bits. With a generous 1-inch cutting height and an extended overall length of 2-7/8 inches, this bit provides the extra reach necessary for deep grooving and template work that standard bits cannot handle.

Precision is at the core of the 04-110's design. The computer-balanced double flute geometry utilizes specific hook and shear angles to slice cleanly through wood fibers, ensuring a smooth finish in hardwood, softwood, plywood, and abrasive composites. The tips are also relief-ground, allowing for safe and effective plunge cutting—perfect for starting dados, mortises, or internal cutouts in the center of a workpiece. Whether you are running a high-speed CNC machine, a hand-held router, or a table-mounted setup, this Black I.C.E. coated bit offers the professional reliability and longevity required for high-volume woodworking.

Key Features

  • Black I.C.E. Coating: Advanced coating reduces heat, improves chip evacuation, and prevents pitch buildup for a cooler cut.
  • 2X Tool Life: The combination of Black I.C.E. and TiCo Carbide delivers double the life of standard uncoated bits.
  • Extended Reach: 2-7/8 inch overall length allows for access to deeper grooves and hard-to-reach areas.
  • TiCo Hi-Density Carbide: Proprietary blend maximizes hardness and edge retention in tough materials.
  • Plunge Cutting Ready: Relieved tips allow for vertical drilling and starting grooves anywhere on the material.
  • Double Flute Design: Two precision-ground edges ensure fast material removal and a superior finish.
  • Versatile Compatibility: Engineered for use in CNC, hand-held, and table-mounted routers.

Pro-Tip: While this bit offers extended reach (2-7/8"), the narrow 1/4" diameter makes it susceptible to deflection if pushed too hard. For deep grooves, always take multiple shallow passes (approximately 1/8" deep) rather than cutting the full 1" depth at once. This ensures a cleaner finish, prevents bit breakage, and maximizes the benefits of the Black I.C.E. coating.
