FULL DESCRIPTION
TCT Router Bits
Each router bit features diamond ground, micro-grain tungsten carbide tipped blades. This tighter micro-grain structure means the blades offer long lasting hardness and superior edge retention. The body of each bit has been turned and then milled with uncompromising precision from a single piece of 4140 high tensile steel to give perfect balance for reduced vibration and therefore smoother cuts. 4140 steel has been chosen because of its toughness, high fatigue strength, and abrasion and impact resistance. The tungsten carbide tips are then brazed onto the bodies using induction to create an extremely strong joint that safely holds under the high stresses that occur when routing. The router bits are suitable for use on softwoods, hardwoods, veneers, laminates and composite materials.

Keyhole Bits
Keyhole bits are used to produce a keyhole recess for hanging shelves, picture frames and clocks to create a floating appearance by hiding the wall fasteners. The smaller bit suits No 8 or No 10 screw heads while the larger bit suits No 10 or No 12 heads. The bit is plunged into the workpiece to create the entry hole, then moved along to create the desired slot length.

Superior Finish and Performance
The shearing angle of the cutting edges ensure they remain in constant contact with the workpiece to allow a smoother, slicing cut which eliminates tear-out and gives a mirror finish. The bits feature right hook angles which further enhances the cut due to the fast removal of chips. These bits feature an anti-kickback design which limits the feed rate of the material being cut to decrease the likelihood of a kickback, meaning each bit conforms to strict German DIN standards to ensure maximum operator safety. ©

My first Rutlands Router Bit

This is, as the title suggests, my first Rutlands router bit. I'm super impressed so far. Not done an awful lot with it but in testing it's performed fantastic. Most of my bits are some cheapo Amazon set and were ok to start with but it's time to move on to better quality. Having used Rutlands for many workshop items and tools I'm overall impressed with the quality and customer service.

I have 3 other bits yet to be used but am looking forward to putting them through their paces

Thoroughly impressed

Cheap bits tend to tear the wood & blunt quickly. These on the other hand have kept an ultra sharp edge & given me a beautifully clean cut - no burn marks & very little sanding required, if any at all. Thoroughly impressed.

Well packaged & presented

Well packaged & presented, and most importantly, with me the next day. As for the results, I'm very pleased so far & have managed to find profiles not offered by other suppliers. Will no doubt be back for more.

Rutlands - my go to place for router bits

Tried many brands over the years, but happy to say I now won't go anywhere else for router bits. I've thrown everything at them, including the hardest walnut and ash, and they continue to impress with the quality of finish left behind. If you're serious about routing then investing in quality bits is a must.
