4-Flute Rougher / Finisher
Royce Ayr specifies a unique rougher/finisher design in one combination-compression tool to minimize tearout in laminated and veneered panel routing.


Solid-carbide four-flute combination-compression router bit for CNC routing laminated or veneered wood and wood composites where top and bottom finish are critical. The verified R60-61811 configuration combines a 1/2-inch cutting diameter, 1-3/4-inch cutting edge, 0.669-inch upcut section, 1/2-inch shank, and 3-1/2-inch overall length. Royce Ayr specifies a unique rougher/finisher design to minimize tearout.
Four-flute solid-carbide combination-compression geometry incorporating roughing and finishing action in one tool. Royce Ayr specifies the family for laminated or veneered wood and wood composites where both panel faces matter.
Designed for compatible CNC routing equipment using a precision 1/2-inch toolholding interface. The page preserves the exact published dimensions and does not add unverified rotation or coating data.
The Royce Ayr R60-61811 is a four-flute combination-compression router bit within Royce Ayr's Solid Carbide Tooling range. Current manufacturer family data specifies laminated or veneered wood and wood composites where top and bottom finish are critical, with a unique rougher/finisher design intended to minimize tearout.
The exact manufacturer catalogue configuration is a 0.500-inch cutting diameter, 1.750-inch cutting edge, 0.669-inch upcut length, 0.500-inch shank, four flutes, and a 3.500-inch overall length. This geometry combines compression action with integrated roughing and finishing behavior for controlled panel routing.
The exact catalogue row used for R60-61811 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 material stack and production process.
Technical Specifications
Royce Ayr specifies a unique rougher/finisher design in one combination-compression tool to minimize tearout in laminated and veneered panel routing.
The verified 0.669-inch upcut section is integrated within a 1-3/4-inch cutting edge for the exact R60-61811 configuration.
A 1/2-inch cutting diameter and matching 1/2-inch shank are paired with a 3-1/2-inch overall length for compact CNC routing applications.
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 catalogue row used here.
Royce Ayr R60-61811 combines a 1/2-inch cutting diameter, 1-3/4-inch cutting edge, 0.669-inch upcut section, 1/2-inch shank, four-flute combination-compression geometry, and a 3-1/2-inch overall length.
Its integrated rougher/finisher design is intended to minimize tearout while routing laminated or veneered wood and wood composites where finish quality on both panel faces is critical.
