Main Product Description
The Leitz Marathon Solid Carbide Compression Router Bit is built for industrial nested manufacturing. Featuring a 1/2-inch cutting diameter, 1-1/4-inch cutting-edge length, and 3-inch overall length, this two-flute tool uses opposing axial shear geometries to reduce delamination. Its up-shear tip and down-shear upper section direct chips toward the center of the board, helping suppress fraying on both top and bottom surfaces.
Constructed from premium ultra-micrograin tungsten carbide, the tool body is protected by the Leitz Marathon wear-resistant coating. This barrier helps reduce frictional heat and shields the cutting edge from abrasive binders and resins found in modern composite panels, supporting extended service life, reliable dimensional accuracy, and consistently clean profiles across long production runs.
Accelerate nesting productivity and reduce secondary sanding with the genuine Leitz Marathon Solid Carbide Compression Router Bit. Engineered for precision cabinetry fabrication and demanding industrial CNC routers, this 1/2 x 1-1/4 x 3-inch tool delivers clean finishes along both material faces across repeated production cycles.

Product Highlights
Synchronized Up/Down Shear
Opposing helix zones direct cutting forces inward to limit splintering on delicate top and bottom decorative surfaces.
Dynamic Core Integrity
The micrograin carbide core limits deflection under aggressive feed loads and supports consistent dimensional tracking.
Compatibility & Installation Notes
Ensure the 1/2-inch shank is fully seated in a clean, correctly sized premium collet or compatible heat-shrink toolholder to limit radial runout. Confirm that the initial plunge depth fully engages the up-shear tip section before beginning a compression cut. Operate within the machine, material, and toolholder manufacturer's recommended RPM, feed-rate, chip-load, and maximum insertion specifications.
Accelerate Nesting Productivity
