Freud 16-104 Mortising Router Bit, 3/4 In. Dia., 1/4 In. Shank

The Freud 16-104 is a carbide-tipped mortising router bit engineered to produce smooth, accurate mortises in plywood, veneer, solid hardwoods, softwoods, and composite materials. This bit delivers the clean, splinter-free results needed for detailed woodworking tasks. The bit's compact length and controlled cutting depth make it easy to maintain consistent feed rates and achieve precise mortise dimensions.

This mortising bit works with CNC routers, handheld routers, and table-mounted portable routers, making it a versatile choice for both DIYers and professional woodworkers. The deep center gullet design maximizes material removal while preventing chip buildup and reducing cutting resistance, allowing smoother operation with less effort. The Perma-Shield coating reduces friction and bit drag, protects against resin buildup and corrosion, and helps ensure cleaner cuts.

Features and Benefits

• Down Shear Design: Directs wood fibers downward during the cut to eliminate tear-out and ensure clean, splinter-free top surfaces.
• Deep Center Gullets: Extra-deep gullets maximize material removal and prevent chip buildup for smoother, more controlled cutting action.
• Perma-Shield Coating: Reduces friction and bit drag while protecting against resin buildup and corrosion.
• Compact Length: The 1/2 inch cutting length enables controlled depth mortises and helps maintain consistent feed rates.
• Multi-Router Compatibility: Works with CNC routers, handheld routers, table-mounted routers, and automatic routers.
• 2-Flute Carbide Construction: Durable carbide tips deliver smooth, accurate cuts across plywood, hardwood, softwood, and composite materials.
