CMT 806.690.11B Flush Trim Bit with Double Bearing, 2-Inch Cutting Length and 1/2-Inch Shank

Used to cut a walnut veneered sheet of plywood. The shear makes it a very clean cut, even on crosscuts. Recommended.

Use this bit daily for work and it is still the best bit Ive ever had regardless of price. This is how router bits should be.

Does everything we needed it to do. This seems to be a very sturdy bit. Worth every bit of money we spent.

If you are using this for it’s intended purpose, you will not be disappointed. Have had this but for several years and it works perfectly. Very happy with it and will be purchasing another to keep in reserve.

Its a workhorse. Very easily slices through red oak with a 2 1/4hp table router. Worked through interior arch grain very well, it was pretty forgiving. Alot of the straight flush trim bits will grab the grain and destroy your piece if you go to far before flipping your template. I could get very very close and even go against some of the grain without any damage to the piece and any dangerous kick back.

This is a large bit, so you need to reduce router speed when using it. The top and bottom bearings make it suitable for pattern following and/or edge trimming. Generally CMT makes excellent bits, so I expect this to last. I am retired and a DIY woodworker and I am in my shop pretty much every day, so my tools and bits are used frequently. Not a production shop, but not quite a weekend warrior either.

These bits hold their edge for me, I never force my bits so for me theyre very sturdy

Sharp bit, good quality, good price, what more is there to say

Good bit, sharp, trims perfectly flush to bearing surface.

works will on most woods , but has tear out on red oak
