Product Description
CMT 822.364.11 Slot Cutter by CMT is a precision-engineered 3-tooth carbide-tipped cutting tool designed for routing clean, accurate slots in solid hardwood, softwood, plywood, MDF, chipboard, laminates, melamine, and plastic. With a 1-7/8 in. cutting diameter and a 1/4 in. teeth thickness, this slot cutter is purpose-built for biscuit joinery, spline groove routing, T-molding installation, H-slot cutting, and panel joinery work. Mounted on an 8mm shank and compatible with the CMT 824 series slot cutter arbors, it is equally at home on a handheld router, router table, or CNC routing machine.
Key Features
- 1-7/8 in. cutting diameter with 12.7mm cutting depth - delivers a full, consistent slot in a single pass, reducing setup time and improving repeatability on joinery projects.
- 1/4 in. teeth thickness - produces a standard-width slot precisely sized for common biscuits, splines, and T-molding profiles, eliminating the need for multiple passes or secondary sizing.
- 3-tooth carbide-tipped (HW) design - industrial-grade carbide tips provide extended cutting life across a wide range of materials including hardwood, softwood, MDF, melamine, laminates, and plastic.
- 8mm shank and 8mm bore diameter - ensures secure, concentric mounting on compatible slot cutter arbors, reducing vibration and improving cut quality.
- Right-hand (RH) rotation - standard rotation direction compatible with conventional routers, router tables, and CNC spindles without adapter requirements.
- 0.177 in. plate thickness - a rigid, precision-ground plate body maintains blade stability during cutting, supporting accurate slot depth and width consistency.
Why This Product
- The 1/4 in. slot width and 12.7mm cutting depth make this cutter a practical single-tool solution for T-molding, biscuit joinery, and spline routing without changing bits between tasks.
- The 3-tooth carbide-tipped (HW) construction is suited for production use across demanding materials like melamine, laminates, chipboard, and solid hardwood - reducing downtime from frequent blade changes.
- The 8mm bore fits directly onto CMT 824 series arbors, making it a straightforward addition to a CMT slot cutter system already in use in the shop.
- With a compact 1-7/8 in. diameter and right-hand rotation, this cutter transitions easily between handheld router use, router table setups, and CNC routing applications.
