The Freud 04-106 is a premium carbide straight router bit designed for woodworkers and professionals who need precision cutting across a wide range of materials. This 1/4-inch diameter bit with a 1/4-inch shank fits standard routers and delivers clean, accurate cuts in hardwood, softwood, plywood, and composition materials. Its compact 2-1/4-inch overall length makes it ideal for reaching tight corners and working in confined spaces while maintaining stability in the collet.
Whether you're shaping edges, cutting dados, creating grooves, or working on intricate patterns, this bit performs reliably on handheld routers, table-mounted routers, CNC machines, and other automatic routing equipment. The 2-flute design reduces vibration and optimizes chip evacuation, resulting in smooth finishes and extended tool life.
