Royce Ayr 2 Flute Compression Router Bit 1/2 in (12.7 mm)
2-Flute Compression
Spiral Router Bit
A 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, 1-5/8-inch cutting edge, 3/4-inch upcut section, 1/2-inch shank, and 4-inch overall length suit extended production panel-routing applications.
Main Product Description
The Royce Ayr 2-Flute Compression Spiral Router Bit R60-11405 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, 1.625-inch cutting edge, 0.750-inch upcut section, 0.500-inch shank, two flutes, right-hand rotation, no coating, and a 4.000-inch overall length. This extended configuration is suited to compatible cabinet, millwork, nested-routing, and general panel-processing applications.
Solid-carbide construction supports rigidity, dimensional consistency, and cutting-edge retention in production routing. Correct collet condition, tool projection, spindle speed, feed rate, material thickness, hold-down, and depth-per-pass are 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.
Production Cutting Length
The 1-5/8-inch cutting edge supports compatible panel-routing applications requiring more cutting length than shorter R60-114 sizes.
Verified Upcut Section
The 3/4-inch upcut length can be matched carefully to panel thickness and programmed cutting depth for correct compression engagement.
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 3/4-inch upcut section and remaining downcut geometry engage the workpiece correctly; confirm that the 1-5/8-inch cutting edge suits the panel and programmed cutting depth.
Extended Two-Sided Panel Routing
The Royce Ayr 2-Flute Compression Spiral Router Bit R60-11405 provides a 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, 1-5/8-inch cutting edge, 3/4-inch upcut section, 1/2-inch shank, and 4-inch overall length support extended production-routing applications.
Two-flute compression geometry and right-hand rotation support controlled panel machining when the tool is correctly held, positioned through the material, and operated within suitable machining parameters.
