Product Description
CMT 836.130.11 Chamfer Bit with Bearing is a precision router bit from CMT designed to cut clean, accurate 15 deg. bevels and chamfers on wood edges. With a 3/4 in. cutting diameter, a 7/16 in. cutting height, and a 1/4 in. shank, this right-hand rotation bit is equally at home on a handheld router, a router table, or a CNC routing machine. Whether you are easing sharp edges on furniture components, creating decorative bevels, or assembling perfectly aligned multi-sided boxes and containers, this chamfer bit delivers repeatable results thanks to its ball-bearing guide that maintains a consistent angle throughout every pass.
Key Features
- 15 deg. chamfer angle with ball-bearing guide - the bearing rides against the workpiece to maintain a precise, repeatable bevel angle on every pass, eliminating the need for fences or repeated setup adjustments.
- 3/4 in. cutting diameter x 7/16 in. cutting height - provides enough cutting capacity for clean chamfering on a wide range of stock thicknesses, from thin decorative panels to thicker solid lumber edges.
- 2-flute carbide (HW) cutting edges - hard-metal carbide tips stay sharp longer than high-speed steel, delivering cleaner cuts on hardwood, softwood, plywood, MDF, and similar materials while reducing the number of sharpenings required over the life of the bit.
- 1/4 in. shank - fits the most common router collet size, making this bit compatible with a broad range of compact and full-size routers without requiring an adapter.
- Right-hand (RH) rotation - standard cutting direction works correctly with conventional router feed direction, supporting safe, predictable operation on handheld routers, router tables, and CNC setups.
- 2-5/32 in. total length - compact overall length keeps the bit well-supported in the collet while still providing adequate reach for most chamfering applications.
Why This Product
- The integrated ball-bearing guide removes the guesswork from chamfering - no fence setup required, and the 15 deg. bevel angle stays consistent from the first pass to the last, making it ideal for repetitive production work on furniture, cabinets, and decorative projects.
- The combination of a 3/4 in. diameter and 7/16 in. cutting height means this bit handles the edge-bevel work needed for multi-sided boxes, containers, and decorative frames where consistent miter angles are critical for tight, clean joints.
- Hard-metal (HW) carbide construction gives this chamfer bit the cutting durability needed for both solid hardwood and engineered sheet goods, making it a versatile single bit for shops that work across multiple wood species and panel products.
- At 1/4 in. shank and 2-5/32 in. total length, this bit is sized for use with compact routers as well as larger machines, giving woodworkers flexibility to use it in hand-routing situations, fixed table setups, and CNC routing applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
What bevel angle does this bit cut?
This chamfer bit cuts a 15 deg. bevel angle. The ball-bearing guide keeps the angle consistent along the full length of the cut, so no manual depth stops or fence adjustments are needed to maintain that angle from one pass to the next.
Will this bit work in a compact trim router with a 1/4 in. collet?
Yes. The 1/4 in. shank is the standard size for compact and trim routers as well as many full-size routers. At 2-5/32 in. total length, the bit is also short enough to run stably in a trim router without excessive runout or vibration.
Can this chamfer bit be used on sheet goods like plywood and MDF in addition to solid wood?
Yes. The hard-metal (HW) carbide cutting edges are well-suited for solid hardwoods, softwoods, plywood, and MDF. The 2-flute design helps produce clean edges on both solid lumber and engineered panel materials.
Is this bit suitable for use on a router table or CNC machine, or only for handheld routing?
This bit is designed for use on handheld routers, router tables, and CNC routing machines. The right-hand (RH) rotation is standard for all three setups, and the ball-bearing guide works in each configuration to control the cut depth and maintain the 15 deg. chamfer angle consistently.
