Royce Ayr 2 Flute Compression Spiral Ultimax Router Bit 1/2 in (12.7 mm)
2-Flute Ultimax
Compression Spiral Bit
A 1/2-inch (12.7 mm) Ultimax-coated, solid-carbide compression spiral router bit for CNC routing laminated or veneered wood and wood composites where clean top and bottom edges are required.
Main Product Description
The Royce Ayr 2-Flute Ultimax Compression Spiral Router Bit R60-11402UM is designed for CNC routing laminated or veneered wood and wood-composite panels where clean top and bottom edges are required. Its compression geometry combines upward and downward shearing action to help reduce chipping on both panel faces.
The Ultimax / UM coating is identified for reducing friction, increasing edge hardness, improving coating adhesion, and supporting tool life in nested-routing applications. Solid-carbide construction provides a rigid cutting body for repeatable panel-processing work.
The tool has a 0.500-inch cutting diameter, 0.875-inch cutting edge, 0.500-inch upcut length, 0.500-inch shank, and 3.000-inch overall length. Correct collet condition, tool projection, spindle speed, feed rate, pass depth, and material hold-down are essential for maintaining edge quality and service life.
Best Fit Applications
Product Highlights
Compression Edge Control
Upward and downward shearing action helps reduce chipping on both faces of compatible laminated and veneered panels.
Ultimax Coating
The UM coating is identified for reduced friction, increased edge hardness, improved adhesion, and extended service life in nested-routing work.
Compact 1/2-Inch Format
The 1/2-inch diameter and shank, 7/8-inch cutting edge, and 3-inch overall length suit compatible compact panel-routing operations.
Compatibility & Installation Notes
Confirm that the CNC router spindle, collet, nut, and toolholder accept an exact 1/2-inch (12.7 mm) shank. Inspect toolholding components for wear or contamination, minimize unsupported tool projection, and verify runout before machining. Establish spindle speed, feed rate, cutting depth, ramp strategy, and hold-down according to the actual panel construction and machine capability.
Improve Two-Sided Panel Edge Quality
The Royce Ayr 2-Flute Ultimax Compression Spiral Router Bit R60-11402UM provides a coated solid-carbide solution for laminated, veneered, plywood, and wood-composite panel production. Its compression geometry is designed to support clean top and bottom edges in compatible CNC routing applications.
The 1/2-inch diameter, 7/8-inch cutting edge, 1/2-inch upcut section, 1/2-inch shank, and 3-inch overall length create a compact configuration for nested-routing and cabinet-component machining when the tool is correctly held and operated within suitable parameters.
