Royce Ayr 2-Flute Straight Carbide Router Bit - 1/2" Dia x 1" Cut


2-Flute Straight Flute
General-Purpose Router Bit
Solid-carbide straight-flute router bit for general-purpose machining in solid wood,MDF,and selected plastics. Its 1/2-inch cutting diameter,1-inch cutting edge,1/2-inch shank,two-flute geometry,and 3-inch overall length provide a compact format for compatible CNC routing systems.
Main Product Description
The Royce Ayr 2-Flute Straight General-Purpose Router Bit R56-11814 belongs to Royce Ayr's Straight Flute General Purpose series. The manufacturer specifies this series for routing solid wood,MDF,and some plastics.
Its straight two-flute geometry provides a general-purpose cutting format without the pronounced upward or downward chip direction associated with helical tooling. This makes the tool suitable for compatible slotting,grooving,edge-routing,and profile-machining operations.
The 0.5000-inch cutting diameter,1.000-inch cutting edge,0.500-inch shank,and 3.000-inch overall length require a compatible precision collet or approved toolholder. Before machining,verify collet condition,runout,right-hand spindle rotation,tool projection,spindle speed,feed rate,depth per pass,workholding,and chip extraction for the material being processed.

Product Highlights
Straight-Flute Cutting Format
Straight cutting edges provide a general-purpose geometry for compatible wood,MDF,and plastic routing applications.
Two-Flute Construction
The two-flute format provides balanced cutting engagement when spindle speed,feed rate,and chip load are correctly matched.
Compact 1/2-Inch Tool Format
The 1/2-inch diameter and shank,1-inch cutting edge,and 3-inch overall length suit compatible CNC routing systems.
Compatibility & Installation Notes
Confirm that the CNC router spindle or toolholder accepts an exact 1/2-inch (12.7 mm) shank and provides sufficient clearance for the 3-inch (76.2 mm) overall length. Inspect the collet and nut,minimize unsupported projection,verify right-hand rotation and runout,and establish suitable spindle speed,feed rate,depth per pass,workholding,and chip extraction for the solid wood,MDF,or plastic being machined.
