Main Product Description
CMT 811.628.11 is one exact Item Code within the official 7/8/911 straight-router-bits, short-series family. The verified USA and Canada row specifies a 1/2-inch cutting diameter, 1-1/4-inch cutting length, 3-inch overall length, 1/2-inch shank, two cutting edges, HW active cutting material, and right-hand rotation.
CMT describes the family with special FATIGUE-PROOF® steel, micrograin carbide, and an orange non-stick P.T.F.E. coating. The exact 811.628.11 row identifies HW material, Z2 geometry, and the catalog description “For Leigh jig,” so those item-specific fields control this variation.
CMT identifies plywood, composites, and natural wood as applications for the short-series family, with construction focused on precision, balance, concentricity, and chip removal. The 1/2-inch diameter, 1-1/4-inch cutting length, 1/2-inch shank, and Leigh jig designation are primary identifiers for this specific variation.
