Router Bit
4 Flute Compression
Solid-carbide four-flute compression router bit for CNC routing laminated or veneered wood and wood composites where top and bottom finish are critical. The verified R60-51703 configuration combines a 1/2-inch cutting diameter, 1-3/8-inch cutting edge, 0.625-inch upcut section, 1/2-inch shank, and 3-1/2-inch overall length. Royce Ayr specifies that the short upcut allows a chip-free dado to be routed.

Main Product Description
The Royce Ayr R60-51703 is a four-flute compression router bit within Royce Ayr's Precision CNC Tooling range. Manufacturer catalogue data specifies this family for laminated or veneered wood and wood composites where top and bottom finish are critical.
The exact published configuration is a 0.500-inch cutting diameter, 1.375-inch cutting edge, 0.625-inch upcut length, 0.500-inch shank, and a 3.500-inch overall length. Royce Ayr specifically notes that the short upcut allows a chip-free dado to be routed while preserving finish on the panel faces.
The exact accessible SKU record does not publish rotation or coating, so those fields are intentionally omitted rather than inferred from neighboring tools. Verify toolholder fit, runout, tool projection, spindle speed, feed rate, pass depth, entry strategy, workholding, and extraction for the actual laminated, veneered, or wood-composite panel.

Product Highlights
0.625-Inch Upcut Section
Royce Ayr specifies the 0.625-inch upcut section within the exact R60-51703 geometry, paired with a 1-3/8-inch cutting edge.
Clean Top & Bottom Finish
The short upcut is specifically identified by Royce Ayr as allowing a chip-free dado to be routed in compatible panel applications.
Compatibility & Installation Notes
Confirm that the CNC router toolholder accepts the exact 1/2-inch (12.70 mm) shank and provides suitable clearance for the 3-1/2-inch overall tool length. Inspect the collet and nut, minimize unsupported projection, verify runout, secure the workpiece, and establish spindle speed, feed rate, pass depth, entry strategy, and extraction for the actual laminated, veneered, or wood-composite panel. Confirm rotation and coating from the physical tool or current Royce Ayr documentation before installation because those fields were not present in the exact accessible SKU record used here.
Compression Routing for Clean Panel Faces
Royce Ayr R60-51703 combines a 1/2-inch cutting diameter, 1-3/8-inch cutting edge, 0.625-inch upcut section, 1/2-inch shank, four-flute compression geometry, and a 3-1/2-inch overall length.
Its compression geometry is intended for laminated or veneered wood and wood composites where both faces must remain clean, while the short upcut supports chip-free dado routing.
