Precision Freud 3/8 Inch Double Flute Straight Router Bit 12-110T with 1/2 Inch Shank

The Freud 12-110T 3/8-Inch Diameter Double Flute Straight Router Bit operates as a commercial-grade grooving and deep mortising tool engineered to execute rapid stock removal, dadoes, rabbets, and plunge cuts in solid hardwoods, softwoods, plywood, and wood composites. Manufactured with micrograin TiCo High-Density Carbide cutters treated with friction-reducing Red Perma-SHIELD non-stick coating, this 1/2-inch shank bit features end-relieved tips for direct plunge cutting, an extended 1-1/4-inch carbide height, and a 24,000 RPM maximum speed rating. Compatible with CNC automated routers, table-mounted setups, and handheld routers, this double-flute straight bit delivers smooth, splinter-free channel walls across deep cabinetry and joinery applications.

Best Used For:

  • Deep Cabinet Dado & Rabbet Cutting: Milling deep 3/8-inch flat-bottom dado channels and edge rabbets for heavy-duty cabinet shelving and drawer joinery.
  • Deep Mortise & Blind Slot Routing: Executing clean plunge cuts and deep stopped mortises in solid hardwood door stiles and furniture frames up to 1-1/4 inches deep.
  • CNC Sheet Goods Fluting & Trimming: Routing straight grooves and full-thickness perimeter cutouts in thick cabinet-grade plywood, MDF, and composite panels using automated CNC equipment.

Key Performance & Safety Features

  • Extended 1-1/4-Inch Cutting Length: High carbide height enables deep single-pass slotting and full-thickness panel trimming on thick wood stock.
  • TiCo High-Density Micrograin Carbide: Titanium-cobalt carbide formulation maintains razor-sharp edges significantly longer than standard carbide when milling abrasive composites.
  • Red Perma-SHIELD Thermal Barrier Coating: Non-stick fluoropolymer coating insulates the bit body against heat buildup, resin accumulation, and rust corrosion.
  • End-Relieved Plunge Cutting Tips: Precision-ground bottom cutters enable smooth, vertical plunge capability for blind mortises and stopped slots.
  • Heavy-Duty 1/2-Inch Steel Shank: Provides maximum anti-flex structural stability and vibration resistance during deep mortising passes.
  • Multi-Axis Router Compatibility: Dynamically balanced for safe operation on automated CNC spindles, router tables, and handheld routers.

Pro-Tip: When routing deep 1-1/4-inch mortises in dense hardwoods like red oak or maple using this extended 3/8-inch straight bit, make stepped passes of no more than 3/8-inch depth per cut. Stepping down incrementally allows wood chips to clear the flutes effectively, preventing frictional heat buildup and keeping the end-relieved TiCo carbide cutters sharp for clean, burn-free mortise walls.
