Verified 0.125-Inch Kerf
The published cutting width supports consistent horizontal slots where a 0.125-inch kerf is required.


A carbide-tipped Vortex profile cutter built on a precision-machined, one-piece alloy-steel body. SKU 6610 combines a 2-inch cutter diameter, 0.125-inch kerf, 1/2-inch shank, 3/4-inch cutting depth, and three-wing geometry for horizontal slotting and compatible flush-trimming operations.
This Series 6600 cutter uses brazed carbide cutting tips on a one-piece alloy-steel body for horizontal slots and flush-trimming work in compatible wood, wood-composite, and plastic materials.
Designed for compatible routers and CNC routing systems using a precision 1/2-inch collet or holder. Machine clearance, cutter projection, slot depth, workholding, and the full 2-inch cutter diameter must be confirmed before operation.
The Vortex Tool 6610 is the 0.125-inch-kerf model in the Series 6600 three-wing slotting-cutter family. Vortex constructs the cutter from a precision-machined, one-piece alloy-steel body and equips it with brazed carbide cutting tips.
Its 2-inch diameter and 3/4-inch depth-of-cut capacity are intended for horizontal slotting and compatible flush-trimming operations. Vortex specifies the series for wood, wood composites, and plastic, making the 6610 a practical selection when a 1/8-inch slot width is required.
The verified configuration uses three cutting wings, a 1/2-inch shank, a 2-inch cutter diameter, and a 0.125-inch kerf. Correct collet condition, shank engagement, cutter clearance, workholding, feed, spindle speed, chip evacuation, and toolpath strategy remain essential to cut quality and machine operation.
Technical Specifications
The published cutting width supports consistent horizontal slots where a 0.125-inch kerf is required.
Three brazed carbide-tipped wings provide the official Series 6600 cutting configuration on a rigid one-piece body.
The 2-inch-diameter cutter is specified for horizontal slotting and compatible trimming operations up to 3/4 inch deep.
Use a clean, undamaged precision 1/2-inch collet or compatible holder and maintain adequate shank engagement without contacting the cutter body. Confirm clearance for the full 2-inch diameter, the planned 3/4-inch maximum cutting depth, and all machine guards or fixtures. Verify spindle condition, rotation, workholding, entry strategy, feed rate, spindle speed, chip evacuation, and toolpath direction before production. Do not use the cutter if any carbide tip, wing, body section, or shank is damaged.
Vortex Tool 6610 combines a precision-machined one-piece alloy-steel body with three brazed carbide-tipped wings, a 2-inch diameter, and a verified 0.125-inch kerf.
Correct collet fit, cutter clearance, workholding, toolpath strategy, cutting parameters, and chip evacuation are essential for producing consistent horizontal slots in compatible wood, composite, and plastic materials.
