Royce Ayr 2-Flute Straight Solid Carbide Router Bit - 3/8" Diameter x 1-5/8" Cut
2-Flute Straight-Flute
Router Bit
Extended-reach solid-carbide straight-flute router bit designed for general-purpose routing in solid wood, MDF, and selected plastics. Its 3/8-inch cutting diameter, 1-5/8-inch cutting edge, 3/8-inch shank, and 6-inch overall length support deep slotting, dadoing, profiling, and CNC routing where neutral axial cutting action is preferred.
Main Product Description
The Royce Ayr 2-Flute Straight-Flute General-Purpose Router Bit R56-11813 is designed for routing solid wood, MDF, and selected plastics. Its straight-flute geometry produces neutral axial cutting action compared with upcut or downcut spiral designs, supporting controlled slotting, dadoing, profiling, and sidewall finishing.
The 0.3750-inch cutting diameter and 1.625-inch cutting edge provide additional reach for deeper routing operations. The matching 0.375-inch shank and extended 6.000-inch overall length suit compatible CNC router setups where clearance, tool projection, spindle capacity, and rigidity have been properly evaluated.
This HW solid-carbide tool uses two flutes and right-hand rotation. Correct collet condition, minimum practical projection, verified runout, suitable RPM, feed rate, depth-per-pass, workholding, and chip evacuation are essential for controlling deflection, maintaining finish quality, and achieving reliable tool life.
Best Fit Applications
Product Highlights
Neutral Straight-Flute Action
The straight cutting geometry supports controlled slotting, dadoing, profiling, and perpendicular sidewall finishing.
Extended 6-Inch Reach
The long overall length supports deeper-access routing when tool projection, machine clearance, and spindle rigidity are correctly managed.
HW Carbide Construction
The solid-carbide body supports cutting-edge retention and repeatable dimensions in compatible production applications.
Compatibility & Installation Notes
Confirm that the spindle and toolholder accept an exact 3/8-inch (9.53 mm) shank and provide sufficient clearance for the 6-inch overall length and required projection. Inspect and clean the collet, collet nut, and tool shank, minimize unsupported projection, verify runout, and confirm right-hand rotation before machining. Match spindle capacity, RPM, feed rate, depth-per-pass, workholding, and chip evacuation to the selected material and machine conditions.
Extend Straight-Flute Routing Reach
The Royce Ayr 2-Flute Straight-Flute General-Purpose Router Bit R56-11813 provides an extended-reach HW solid-carbide solution for routing solid wood, MDF, and selected plastics.
Its 3/8-inch diameter, 1-5/8-inch cutting edge, matching shank, right-hand rotation, and 6-inch overall length support deep production routing when correctly held and operated within suitable cutting parameters.
