Main Product Description
CMT 857.503.11 is one exact Item Code in the official 8/957 chamfer-router-bit family. The live variation row specifies a 15° angle, 31/32-inch (24.61 mm) diameter, and 7/8-inch (22.23 mm) cutting length.
The verified overall length is 2-51/64 inches (70.64 mm), with a 1/2-inch (12.7 mm) shank, HW carbide cutting material, and right-hand rotation. Supporting manufacturer data identifies two carbide-tipped cutting edges and CMT’s orange PTFE non-stick coating.
CMT describes the family for clean bevels and chamfers in edge work, aligned multi-sided forms, decorative projects, and larger architectural components. Exact selection should be based on the official 31/32-inch diameter rather than rounded one-inch reseller naming.
