Woodworkers, if you do any template routing, this CMT pattern bit is an absolute essential for your shop. It's a 3/4-inch diameter bit with a 2-inch cutting length and a top-mounted bearing. That top bearing is key – it lets you run your template on *top* of your workpiece, so you can clearly see the cut line as you go, which makes for much more accurate and confident work. The bit is tipped with super-tough SinterHip carbide, so it stays sharp way longer, even when working with hardwoods or composites. CMT's Orange Shield coating helps reduce friction and resin build-up. These bits have a top reputation – Wood Magazine even rated them #1 overall in a comparison test. Whether you're making cabinet parts, signs, toys, or any project that uses a template, this bit delivers smooth, clean, and precise cuts every time. It's a professional-grade tool that makes template routing a breeze.
