Royce Ayr 2 Flute Straight Wood & Plastic Router Bit 1/8 in (3.175 mm)
2-Flute Straight
Wood & Plastic Router Bit
Compact, right-hand, two-flute straight router bit for general-purpose routing in solid wood and hard plastic. Its 1/8-inch cutting diameter, 1/2-inch cutting edge, 1/4-inch shank, and 2-inch overall length support narrow slots, detail routing, light pocketing, trimming, and small-profile CNC operations.
Main Product Description
The Royce Ayr 2-Flute Straight Wood & Plastic Router Bit R56-21101 is designed for general-purpose routing where a compact 0.1250-inch cutting diameter is required. Royce Ayr specifies this two-flute straight tool for solid wood and hard plastic, making it suitable for narrow grooves, detail profiles, light slotting, trimming, and shallow pocketing.
Its 0.500-inch cutting edge provides useful reach for controlled small-feature machining, while the straight-flute geometry produces neutral axial cutting action compared with upcut or downcut spirals. The 0.250-inch shank supports common precision 1/4-inch toolholding systems.
The 2.000-inch overall length requires appropriate clearance and controlled tool projection. Before production, verify collet condition, runout, right-hand spindle rotation, spindle speed, feed rate, depth per pass, workholding, material suitability, and chip or dust extraction.
Best Fit Applications
Product Highlights
Compact 1/8-Inch Cutting Diameter
Supports narrow straight cuts, detailed profiles, light slots, and small recessed features in supported wood and hard-plastic applications.
Neutral Straight-Flute Action
Two straight cutting flutes provide predictable sidewall control without the upward or downward axial thrust associated with spiral geometries.
Verified 1/4-Inch Toolholding
The 1/4-inch shank, right-hand rotation, HW construction, and uncoated finish provide clear setup details for compatible routing systems.
Compatibility & Installation Notes
Confirm that the router or CNC spindle toolholder accepts an exact 1/4-inch (6.35 mm) shank and provides sufficient clearance for the 2-inch (50.8 mm) overall length. Inspect the collet and nut, minimize unsupported tool projection, verify right-hand rotation and runout, and establish spindle speed, feed rate, depth per pass, workholding, and extraction according to the material, machine, and approved shop procedures.
Improve Small-Feature Routing Control
The Royce Ayr 2-Flute Straight Wood & Plastic Router Bit R56-21101 provides a compact carbide solution for general-purpose routing in solid wood and hard plastic. Its 1/8-inch diameter, 1/2-inch cutting edge, 1/4-inch shank, and 2-inch overall length support narrow grooves, detail profiles, trimming, and light pocketing.
Balanced two-flute straight cutting action and right-hand rotation help maintain controlled sidewalls and consistent dimensions when the tool is correctly held and operated within suitable machining parameters.
