CMT Chamfer Bit with Bearing - 7/8" Cutting Diameter, 11.25 deg. Bevel Angle, 1/2" Shank is a precision router bit engineered for clean, accurate chamfering and bevel cutting on a wide range of wood and wood-composite materials. With a shallow 11.25 deg. cutting angle, this bit is purpose-built for multi-sided joinery work, decorative edge profiling, and projects requiring consistently angled bevels - such as boxes, frames, and containers where tight angular alignment is essential. The integrated ball-bearing guide ensures repeatable positioning pass after pass, making it equally capable on a handheld router, a router table, or a CNC routing machine.

Key Features

• 11.25 deg. chamfer angle with 7/8" cutting height - delivers a precise, shallow bevel ideal for multi-sided joinery and decorative edge work where consistent angle alignment is critical.
• Ball-bearing pilot guide - rides along the workpiece edge to maintain a consistent chamfer position throughout the cut, reducing setup time and improving repeatability.
• 2-flute hardmetal (HW) carbide cutting edges - provide clean, smooth bevels in solid hardwood, softwood, sheet goods, and other common woodworking materials.
• Right-hand (RH) rotation - compatible with standard router spindle direction, ensuring safe and predictable cutting performance on handheld routers, router tables, and CNC machines.
• 1/2" shank diameter - fits most full-size router collets, providing maximum stability and reduced vibration during edge chamfering and bevel profiling operations.
• 2-51/64" total length - gives adequate clearance for router table setups and allows comfortable access in edge-profiling applications without tool interference.

Why This Product

• The 11.25 deg. angle is specifically suited for crafting multi-sided projects - boxes, decorative containers, and columns - where each panel must meet at a precise bevel for a flush, tight joint.
• The bearing guide eliminates guesswork by keeping the chamfer depth and position constant along the entire edge, making it a reliable choice for production runs and repetitive edge work.
• At 7/8" cutting height, this bit handles both fine decorative trim work and larger-scale edge profiling on beams and columns, covering a wide range of project scales with a single tool.
• The 1/2" shank and 2-flute hardmetal carbide construction work together to minimize chatter and deliver smooth, tear-free bevels even in demanding hardwood applications.
