Product Description
CMT Kit 2 Bearings (8/28.5 - 8/34.9mm) for Slot Cutter 822 is a precision replacement bearing kit designed to keep your CMT slot cutter 822 series performing accurately and smoothly. This 2-piece bearing kit pairs two distinct bearing sizes - 8/28.5mm and 8/34.9mm - giving you the correct guide bearings needed to restore proper function to your slot cutter without guesswork. Whether you are refreshing worn components on a router table or maintaining a handheld router setup, having the right bearing replacement on hand keeps your slotting operations running true.
Key Features
- 2-piece bearing kit included - provides both the 8/28.5mm and 8/34.9mm bearings in a single package, so you have exactly what the CMT slot cutter 822 series requires without sourcing each bearing separately.
- Precise bearing dimensions (8/28.5mm and 8/34.9mm) - exact sizing ensures a proper fit within the slot cutter assembly, supporting accurate self-guiding and consistent slot depth during routing operations.
- Engineered specifically for CMT slot cutter 822 series - purpose-matched compatibility eliminates the risk of ill-fitting replacements, reducing setup time and protecting the integrity of your cutter.
- Precision ground ball bearing construction - smooth, low-friction rotation allows the guide bearing to track cleanly along templates or workpiece edges, producing cleaner slots and reducing wear on the cutter body.
Why This Product
- Restores accurate slot cutting performance on the CMT 822 series by replacing worn or damaged guide bearings with correctly sized, purpose-built components - no adapting generic bearings to fit.
- The 2-piece kit format means you receive both required bearing sizes together, making it straightforward to complete a full bearing refresh on your slot cutter in a single service session.
- Precision-matched dimensions (8/28.5mm and 8/34.9mm) support repeatable, self-guided cuts, which is critical when routing slots along template edges or defined workpiece profiles.
- Keeping a bearing kit on hand minimizes downtime - when a guide bearing fails mid-project, you can swap it out immediately rather than waiting to source a replacement bearing one at a time.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which CMT slot cutter models is this bearing kit compatible with?
This 2-piece bearing kit is designed for use with the CMT slot cutter 822 series. The two bearings - measuring 8/28.5mm and 8/34.9mm - correspond to the specific bearing positions required by that cutter series.
What do the bearing size designations 8/28.5mm and 8/34.9mm mean?
These designations refer to the inner and outer diameter measurements of each bearing. The 8mm dimension is the bore (inner diameter) that fits onto the cutter arbor, while 28.5mm and 34.9mm are the respective outer diameters that contact the workpiece or template edge during guided routing.
Do I need both bearings, or can I replace just one at a time?
The kit is packaged as a 2-piece set containing both the 8/28.5mm and 8/34.9mm bearings. While you can install one bearing at a time as needed, having both on hand allows you to address either bearing position in the CMT 822 series slot cutter without a separate order.
Can this bearing kit be used with routers and router tables?
Yes. The CMT slot cutter 822 series, and by extension these replacement bearings, are suited for use with both handheld routers and router table setups where slotting and grooving operations are performed.
