The CMT 824.061.10 Slot Cutter Arbor with Bearing and Stop Collar is a precision-engineered steel arbor designed to mount CMT 823 series slot cutter blades in handheld routers, router tables, and CNC routing machines. Built for right-hand rotation with a 1/4 in. shank and a total length of 2 11/64 in., this arbor provides a stable, accurate platform for cutting clean slots and grooves in wood, composite panels, laminates, and plastic materials. The included bearing and stop collar configuration gives woodworkers and cabinetmakers the depth control and guided performance needed for repeatable, professional-quality results.

Key Features

• Steel construction - durable material resists wear and deflection during repeated slot cutter operations, supporting long service life in production and shop environments.
• 1/4 in. shank - fits a wide range of standard router collets, making this arbor compatible with compact handheld routers and router table setups without requiring adapters.
• Bearing and stop collar included - the integrated bearing guides the cut along the workpiece edge while the stop collar controls cutter depth, delivering consistent slot width and position pass after pass.
• Right-hand (RH) rotation - matches the standard rotation direction of most routers, ensuring safe, stable cutting performance without the risk of blade loosening during operation.
• Total length of 2 11/64 in. - provides adequate reach for positioning 823 series slot cutter blades at the correct height above the collet, giving clearance for the bearing and collar assembly.
• Designed for CMT 823 slot cutters with 45 deg. bore - purpose-built compatibility means no guesswork when pairing arbors with the correct cutter blades, reducing setup time and potential fit issues.

Why This Product

• Woodworkers who need a guided, depth-controlled slot cutting setup will benefit from the bearing and stop collar combination, which eliminates the need for separate depth-setting tools or guide fences when routing edge slots.
• The 1/4 in. shank keeps this arbor accessible to users with compact or trim routers, not just full-size machines, broadening the range of compatible equipment in a typical shop.
• Direct compatibility with CMT 823 series slot cutters - specifically those with a 45 deg. bore - means this arbor pairs correctly with purpose-matched blades, removing fit uncertainty from the blade-mounting process.
• Steel construction and precision-ground design support wobble-free blade mounting, which is critical for maintaining consistent slot width and position across long production runs or fine cabinetry work.
