Royce Ayr 2 Flute Ultimax Compression Spiral Router Bit 1/2 in (12.7 mm)
2-Flute Ultimax Compression
Spiral Router Bit
An Ultimax-coated solid-carbide compression spiral router bit for CNC routing laminated or veneered wood and wood composites where clean top and bottom edge finish is critical. Its 1/2-inch cutting diameter, 1-3/8-inch cutting edge, 5/8-inch upcut section, 1/2-inch shank, and 3-1/2-inch overall length suit extended production panel-routing applications.
Main Product Description
The Royce Ayr 2-Flute Ultimax Compression Spiral Router Bit R60-11404UM is engineered for CNC routing laminated or veneered wood and wood composite panels where both the top and bottom surfaces require controlled edge quality. Its compression geometry combines upward and downward shearing action to help reduce chipping on both faces of the material.
The tool features a 0.5000-inch cutting diameter, 1.375-inch cutting edge, 0.625-inch upcut section, 0.500-inch shank, two flutes, right-hand rotation, Ultimax coating, and a 3.500-inch overall length. This extended configuration is suited to compatible cabinet, millwork, nested-routing, and general panel-processing applications.
Royce Ayr identifies the Ultimax coating as a low-friction, high-hardness coating with strong adhesion intended to support exceptional tool life in nested-routing applications. Correct collet condition, tool projection, spindle speed, feed rate, material thickness, hold-down, and depth-per-pass remain essential for maintaining finish quality and tool life.
Best Fit Applications
Product Highlights
Compression Edge Control
Upward and downward shearing action helps reduce chipping on the top and bottom faces of compatible laminated and veneered panels.
Ultimax Coating
The coating is specified to minimize friction, increase edge hardness, provide strong adhesion, and support exceptional life in nested-routing applications.
Extended Cutting Geometry
The 1-3/8-inch cutting edge and 5/8-inch upcut section can be matched carefully to panel thickness and programmed cutting depth.
Compatibility & Installation Notes
Confirm that the CNC router spindle, collet, and toolholder accept an exact 1/2-inch (12.7 mm) shank. Verify right-hand rotation, tool projection, runout, available clearance, guarding, dust extraction, hold-down, RPM, feed rate, pass depth, and material thickness before machining. Compression tools must be positioned so the 5/8-inch upcut section and remaining downcut geometry engage the workpiece correctly; confirm that the 1-3/8-inch cutting edge suits the panel and programmed cutting depth.
Coated Extended Panel Routing
The Royce Ayr 2-Flute Ultimax Compression Spiral Router Bit R60-11404UM provides a coated solid-carbide solution for CNC routing laminated, veneered, and composite panels where clean top and bottom edge quality is required. Its 1/2-inch diameter, 1-3/8-inch cutting edge, 5/8-inch upcut section, 1/2-inch shank, and 3-1/2-inch overall length support extended production-routing applications.
Two-flute compression geometry, right-hand rotation, and the Ultimax coating support controlled panel machining when the tool is correctly held, positioned through the material, and operated within suitable machining parameters.
