Why you need this 8 mm flush cutter Precise flush trimming and trimming to templates without chatter: carbide cutting edges maintain sharpness for consistent, accurate results. Reduced downtime and replacement cost: high-hardness carbide and PTFE surface coating extend tool life and resist wear and corrosion. Reliable performance on a range of woodworking machines, making it a versatile tool for professional and hobby use. Key benefits and performance Material: Solid carbide body delivers high hardness, excellent wear resistance, and good corrosion resistance for long service life. Surface finish: PTFE coating adds heat and wear resistance and protects against rust, improving durability and maintaining cutting performance under load. Cutting function: Designed for flush trimming and finishing where the cutter must run true against templates, veneers, or workpieces. Sizes and dimensions Shank diameter: 8 mm Available lengths (diameter x cutting length x overall length): 8 x 3/4 x 20 mm 8 x 3/4 x 25 mm 8 x 3/4 x 38 mm 8 x 3/4 x 50.8 mm Choose the length that matches your routing depth and clearance needs while keeping the 8 mm shank for consistent collet fit. Compatibility Designed to work with many wood router and CNC platforms, including milling machines, vertical hollowing machines, automatic carving machines, and other compatible router systems that accept an 8 mm shank. Use with machines that accept an 8 mm collet for secure, low-vibration operation. Practical applications and use scenarios Edge trimming and laminate work: Trim excess laminate or veneer flush with the substrate using a template or bearing guide, producing a clean edge with minimal sanding. Template-based pattern work: Follow cutting templates to duplicate shapes and profiles accurately in wood, MDF, or plywood—ideal for jigs, inlays, and box-making. Joinery finishing: Flush off glued dowels or tenons and refine mating surfaces without removing excess material from surrounding parts. What makes this product stand out Carbide construction for sustained sharpness and consistent cuts over extended use. PTFE-coated surface for improved heat and wear resistance and enhanced protection against corrosion. Four length options on a standardized 8 mm shank let you match tool reach to the job while maintaining the same reliable mounting diameter. Notes for choice and use Match the selected overall length to your router and workpiece clearance requirements. Ensure your machine accepts an 8 mm shank and that collet and runout specifications are maintained for best results. Use appropriate feed rates and speeds for carbide tooling and the material being cut to maximize life and finish quality.
