Straight Groove Router Bit – HW (K40) | D3–D6 mm | Lc 12 mm | Z1

Shank router bit with an HW (K40) tungsten carbide edge and a single flute (Z1), for narrow grooves, hardware recesses and fine details in solid wood and wood-based panels. Available in 4 cutting diameters (D3, D4, D5, D6 mm), with a Ø6 mm shank (D3–D5) or Ø8 mm shank (D3–D6) – select the variant from the menu.

✨ TECHNICAL ADVANTAGES:

  • Z1 Flute – Fast Chip Evacuation: a single cutting edge leaves a large gullet for clearing material from the groove, reducing the risk of overheating at full depth.
  • HW (K40) – Maximum Versatility: the carbide edge handles solid wood (soft and hard) as well as wood-based panels (MDF, chipboard, plywood), without the rapid wear of high-speed steel.
  • Full Diameter Range (D3–D6 mm): from very fine grooves (hardware recesses, drawer bottoms) to wider slots, all with the same 12 mm cutting depth.
  • Two Shank Options: Ø6 mm (D3–D5) and Ø8 mm (D3–D6), to fit the standard collets of most routers and CNC machines.

⚠️ RECOMMENDATIONS AND LIMITATIONS:

  • Successive Passes on Small Diameters: on D3 and D4 mm, the small diameter-to-depth ratio (Lc 12 mm) makes the bit sensitive to side load — cut deep grooves in successive passes of 3–4 mm at a moderate feed rate to avoid breaking the bit.
  • D5 and D6 mm tolerate a firmer feed, but progressive passes to the full 12 mm depth are still recommended for a clean finish.
  • HW (K40) on softwood: requires a constant feed – letting the spinning bit dwell in one spot on resinous wood (fir, spruce) can cause local burn marks.
  • Not suitable for: full depth in a single pass or operations with heavy side load.

📊 COMPATIBILITY BY MATERIAL (HW K40)

MDF / Chipboard / HDF / Plywood (wood-based panels)100%
Optimal: withstands the abrasive wear of synthetic binders, clean and precise groove.
Hardwood (Beech, Oak, Ash)100%
Excellent: the carbide holds up in dense species, perfectly flat groove bottom.
Softwood (Fir, Spruce, Pine)80%
Good: works well, but needs a constant feed to avoid friction burns.
Exotic Species and Composites100%
Maximum: the recommended choice for demanding materials.

🦺 SAFETY:

  • Mandatory protective equipment: safety glasses (chips thrown at high speed), dust mask or respirator (fine MDF/wood dust) and hearing protection.
  • Successive passes: do not attempt the full 12 mm depth in one pass, especially with D3 and D4 mm – you risk breaking the bit and throwing fragments.
  • Check the collet grip: the shank must be fully inserted and correctly tightened before starting – a loosely held bit vibrates and can pull out of the collet during work.
  • Keep a constant feed and do not let the spinning bit dwell in one spot.
  • Protect your hands: on shank router bits the cutting zone is closer to your hands than on bore cutters – use fences and workpiece clamping devices.
