Main Product Description

CMT 806.096.11 is the exact imperial variant in the official 7/8/906 Flush Trim Router Bits family. The North American row specifies I = 1/2 inch, D = 3/8 inch, L = 2-3/16 inches, S = 1/4 inch, Z = 2, MAT = HW, and RH rotation.

CMT’s worldwide metric table publishes the same Item Code with a 12.9 mm cutting length, 9.53 mm cutting diameter, 55.5 mm overall length, and 6.35 mm shank. The family is intended for precision laminate work and quick template-guided routing with a clean finished edge.

The exact variation row identifies shield 990.422.00 and bearing 791.002.00. The bearing measures 3/8 inch outside diameter, 3/16 inch bore, and 3.2 mm width. CMT also publishes undersized bearing 791.062.00 at 9.3 mm as the replacement guide option after resharpening changes the cutter diameter.

Before Machining

Compatibility & Installation Notes

Use CMT 806.096.11 only in a compatible router with a clean, undamaged 1/4-inch collet. Inspect bearing 791.002.00 for free rotation, play, contamination, and damage, and confirm shield 990.422.00 is correctly seated with the bearing shield orientation maintained during reassembly. The guide bearing must contact the intended template or finished reference surface without forcing the cutter sideways. Secure the workpiece and template, verify cutter and bearing clearance, feed against cutter rotation, and follow the router and tool manufacturers’ speed, projection, guarding, and workholding limits.
