Neutral Straight-Flute Action
The straight geometry provides controlled sidewall cutting without the axial chip direction of upcut or downcut spirals.


HW solid-carbide straight-flute router bit designed for general-purpose CNC routing in solid wood and hard plastic. Its 1/4-inch cutting diameter, 1-1/8-inch cutting edge, 1/4-inch shank, and 3-inch overall length support controlled slotting, pocketing, trimming, and profile work where neutral axial cutting action is preferred.
This production tool combines HW solid-carbide construction, two straight cutting flutes, right-hand rotation, and a precision 1/4-inch shank for controlled routing in compatible wood and hard-plastic applications.
Designed for compatible CNC routers and routing equipment using precision 1/4-inch collets or approved toolholding assemblies.
The Royce Ayr 2-Flute Straight-Flute General Wood and Plastic Router Bit R56-21108 is designed for general-purpose routing in solid wood and hard plastic. Its straight-flute geometry provides neutral axial cutting action compared with upcut, downcut, or compression spiral tools, making it suitable where controlled sidewall cutting is preferred.
The 0.2500-inch cutting diameter and 1.125-inch cutting edge support through-routing, slotting, pocketing, trimming, and profile work. The 0.250-inch shank and 3.000-inch overall length provide a compact, familiar format for compatible CNC router collets and toolholding systems.
This uncoated HW solid-carbide tool uses two flutes and right-hand rotation. Correct collet condition, minimum practical projection, verified runout, suitable RPM, feed rate, depth-per-pass, workholding, and chip evacuation are essential for maintaining finish quality, dimensional control, and reliable tool life.
Technical Specifications
The straight geometry provides controlled sidewall cutting without the axial chip direction of upcut or downcut spirals.
The 1/4-inch cutting diameter and matching shank suit common compatible CNC router collets and detail-routing setups.
The official Royce Ayr series is specified for general-purpose routing in solid wood and hard plastic.
Confirm that the spindle and toolholder accept an exact 1/4-inch (6.35 mm) shank and provide adequate clearance for the 3-inch overall length and required projection. Inspect and clean the collet, collet nut, and tool shank, minimize unsupported projection, verify runout, and confirm right-hand rotation before machining. Match RPM, feed rate, depth-per-pass, workholding, and chip evacuation to the selected wood or hard-plastic material.
The Royce Ayr 2-Flute Straight-Flute General Wood and Plastic Router Bit R56-21108 provides an uncoated HW solid-carbide solution for controlled routing in solid wood and hard plastic.
Its 1/4-inch diameter, 1-1/8-inch cutting edge, matching shank, two-flute geometry, right-hand rotation, and 3-inch overall length support repeatable production machining when correctly held and operated.
