CMT File-Free Flush Trim Router Bit for Laminates 1/2-Inch Diameter x 3/8-Inch Cutting Length x 1/16-Inch Radius x 1/4-Inch Shank
HW Z2
File-Free Flush Trim Bit
CMT 807.015.11 is the exact 1/16-inch-radius variant in the 8/907 File-Free flush-trim family for laminates. It combines a 1/2-inch cutting diameter, 3/8-inch cutting length, 2-1/16-inch overall length, 1/4-inch shank, two HW carbide cutting edges, right-hand rotation, and a ball-bearing guide for smooth laminate edge finishing.
Main Product Description
CMT 807.015.11 is one exact Item Code within the official 8/907 File-Free flush-trim-router-bit family for laminates. The verified USA and Canada row specifies a 1/2-inch cutting diameter, 3/8-inch cutting length, 1/16-inch radius, 2-1/16-inch overall length, 1/4-inch shank, two cutting edges, HW active cutting material, and right-hand rotation.
CMT designed this family to remove the sharp edge left on a laminate surface after flush trimming. The small verified radius smooths the edge to the touch, while the guide bearing follows the reference surface and the Z2 carbide geometry produces the finished profile without further filing.
The exact row identifies shield 990.422.00, screw 990.058.00, hex key 991.057.00, and bearing 791.002.00 at 9.5 mm. CMT specifies undersized bearing 791.062.00 at 9.3 mm as the replacement after resharpening. Correct collet fit, bearing condition, projection, workholding, guarding, feed direction, and machine limits remain essential for controlled routing.
