Featuring a unique \u003cstrong\u003edownshear design\u003c\/strong\u003e, this bit effectively pushes wood fibers downward during the rotation, ensuring a perfectly clean top surface even when working with delicate veneers or thin plywood. Whether you are routing precise mortises for high-end hinges and hardware or cutting clean-edged dadoes for cabinetry, this bit eliminates the need for post-cut cleanup or edge repair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEngineered for high-production environments, this bit is constructed with Freud's proprietary \u003cstrong\u003eTiCo™ Hi-Density Carbide\u003c\/strong\u003e and protected by the signature non-stick \u003cstrong\u003ePerma-SHIELD® Coating\u003c\/strong\u003e. This combination reduces friction and heat buildup, extending tool life and protecting against resin and pitch collection. Designed with deep center gullets, the 16-094 allows for maximum material removal and rapid chip evacuation without loading, making it ideal for use in \u003cstrong\u003eCNC machines, hand-held routers, or table-mounted setups\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"border-bottom: 2px solid #eee;
