Product Description
The CMT Screw for Bearing - Torx T15 TBTI M3.5 x 5 x 7.2mm (Diameter: 9mm) is a precision replacement fastener engineered to secure bearings on CMT router bits and cutter heads.

Key Features
- Torx T15 drive head - provides a more secure tool engagement than slotted or Phillips heads, reducing cam-out and allowing precise, controlled tightening when seating a bearing screw

- M3.5 x 5 x 7.2mm thread and body dimensions - exact OEM sizing for direct, drop-in replacement on compatible CMT router bit and cutter head assemblies, eliminating guesswork during maintenance
- 9mm head diameter - engineered to distribute clamping load evenly across the bearing seat, protecting the bearing surface from damage during fastening
- CMT part number 990.073.00 (Class: RPRB) - an active, genuine CMT replacement part that ensures compatibility and maintains the integrity of your CMT tooling investment
Why This Product
- Restoring a router bit or cutter head with a worn or missing bearing screw is quick and straightforward when you use the exact-spec CMT replacement - no filing, adapting, or improvising needed
