Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What materials can this TCT double-edged straight blade router bit cut?
A: This TCT router bit is designed to cut plywood, MDF (medium-density fibreboard), and solid wood. Its carbide construction and double-edged straight blade design make it suitable for a wide range of wood-based materials used in furniture making, cabinetry, and CNC engraving projects.
Q: Is this router bit compatible with my edge trimmer or CNC machine?
A: Yes — this straight blade features a standard 6.35mm (1/4") shank diameter, which is compatible with the vast majority of edge trimmers, CNC engraving machines, and router tables available on the market. Always confirm your machine's collet size before installing any router bit.
Q: How do I maintain and store this carbide router bit to extend its lifespan?
A: After each use, clean the bit of any sawdust or resin buildup with a mild solvent and a soft brush. Store it in the included protective plastic case to guard the cutting edges against chips and damage. Avoid dropping the bit, as carbide, while extremely hard, can be brittle under sudden impact.
Q: What does "double-edged" mean for a straight blade router bit?
A: A double-edged (two-flute) straight blade router bit has two cutting edges, which means it removes material on both sides with each pass. This results in a smoother cut finish, better chip clearance, and improved cutting efficiency compared to single-flute designs — especially beneficial for CNC routing and precision woodworking tasks.
