Carbide Tipped Jumbo Compression Bit, 3-Flute, 1/2" Shank
Ultra-Shear's Carbide-Tipped 1-1/4" Compression Pattern and Flush Trim Bits excel at furniture part pattern routing. With bearings both above and below the cutter, you can cut with your pattern either above or below the workpiece, ensuring operator safety and delivering clean cuts. Couple the double-bearing design with the double-shearing action of compression grinding geometry and you have a bit that speeds up your pattern routing, minimizes sanding and avoids tear-out. The 1-1/4" cutting diameter steps over minor imperfections in your pattern for cleaner cuts and less sanding.

Pattern routing has three basic rules to ensure your safety and achieve the best surface finish. 1) Feed into the rotation of the router bit. In general, on a router table that means feeding from your right to your left. 2) Cut downhill as much as possible on any slope or curve along the edge grain of the wood. 3) Approach corners so you transition from edge grain to end grain rather than end grain to edge grain. One sure way to guarantee you can follow these rules is to be prepared to work with your pattern both above and below your workpiece. On a simple rounded rectangle as shown in the photos, two opposing corners are cut with the pattern on top.
The other two opposing corners are cut with the pattern on the bottom. Just flip your project over, raise the bit until the motor-side bearing engages the pattern and get right back to work. You'll get flawless cuts on all four quadrants with minimal risk of tear-out or catches.
Ultra-Shear makes similar bits in solid carbide and hybrid shank styles. This carbide-tipped version introduces a cutting diameter that would be prohibitively expensive in solid carbide or even hybrid shank. It delivers the shearing advantage of compression cutting geometry while keeping tooling costs in check. We offer the same basic design in two cut lengths, 1-1/2" and 2".
Don’t settle for inferior quality imported bits to save money. Woodpeckers uses state-of-the-art CNC grinding equipment, the highest quality carbide, ultra-fine grinding wheels and skilled Northeast Ohio machinists to produce American-made router bits at extremely competitive prices. The days of paying extra for middle-man markups are over. Buy direct from the manufacturer and pocket the savings. We’re confident you won’t find an American-made bit of the same design for less.
