Royce Ayr Lock Mortise Tool Upcut 1/2 in (12.7 mm)
3-Flute Lock Mortise
Upcut Tool
Uncoated HW solid-carbide right-hand 3-flute lock-mortise upcut tool designed for CNC routing of deep mortises in the sides of doors for lock-set hardware. Its serrated tooth design helps reduce cutting horsepower demand, while the upcut action supports chip evacuation and the spinback relief provides clearance during deep mortise cutting. The tool features a 1/2-inch cutting diameter, 1-1/2-inch cutting edge, matching 1/2-inch shank, and 6-inch overall length.
Main Product Description
The Royce Ayr 3-Flute Lock Mortise Upcut Tool R60-01742 is built for door-production and millwork shops that need to machine deep side mortises for lock-set hardware. It is part of Royce Ayr's solid-carbide CNC router tooling range and uses a serrated tooth design intended to reduce horsepower demand during cutting.
The upcut action supports chip evacuation, while the spinback relief provides clearance through deep mortise cuts. Its 1/2-inch cutting diameter, 1-1/2-inch cutting edge, 1-1/2-inch b1 dimension, 4-1/2-inch b2 dimension, matching 1/2-inch shank, and 6-inch overall length suit production environments where door-hardware pockets must be routed accurately and repeatedly.
This model is the uncoated HW solid-carbide right-hand configuration with three flutes. It is suited to window-and-door manufacturing, moulding and millwork, stairs and railings, and related applications requiring extended-reach lock-mortise machining. RPM/feed data and country of origin are not specified by the supplied source.
Best Fit Applications
Product Highlights
Dedicated Lock Mortise Geometry
Designed for CNC routing deep mortises in the sides of doors where accurate and repeatable lock-set pocket machining is required.
Spinback Relief
The spinback relief provides clearance for deep mortise cutting and supports the extended reach required in door-lock machining.
Extended 6-Inch Format
The 1/2-inch diameter and shank, 1-1/2-inch cutting edge, and 6-inch overall length suit compatible deep-mortising CNC setups.
Compatibility & Installation Notes
Confirm that the CNC router spindle, collet, and toolholder accept an exact 1/2-inch (12.7 mm) shank and support right-hand rotation. Verify collet condition, runout, safe toolholder engagement, projection, clearance for the 6-inch overall length, programmed mortise depth, pass strategy, RPM, feed speed, door material, guarding, dust extraction, and fixture or hold-down method. This is the uncoated configuration; verify the separately listed Ultimax-coated option when coating is required.
