Drawer
Pull / Finger Grip
Carbide
Tipped
The drawer pull bit produces a smooth finger grip primarily used on the bottom edge of drawer fronts. Also used as a finger pull on cabinet doors where no edge pattern is needed on the front face. Compatible with CNC and table mounted routers. Industrial grade micro grain tungsten carbide
This router bit has a 12.7mm shank (shaft) that will fit most large routers. Please ensure that you select a router bit with a shank (shaft) size that will fit into your router collet.
Use
these flush trimming bits for laminate work or for template and pattern work. This
router bit can be applied to either cut the edge of the workpiece or make a groove
through the material as shown in the picture. We recommend that you first cut a
groove with a straight bit before grooving with this router bit.
PRO-TECH router bits are manufactured in Taiwan.
Router Bit Maintenance
_x000D_Fortunately, this is pretty easy. The best way to prolong the life of a router _x000D_ bit is to keep it clean. And what you need to do varies with the type of bit._x000D_
_x000D_Note: Sharpening is extremely important too.
_x000D_A. No Bearings:
_x000D_To clean bits without bearings, first blow off any dust. Then remove any resin _x000D_ that has built up. (Resin places a drag on the bit which can cause it to overheat _x000D_ and burn.)
_x000D_Resin removers are available. It's the same stuff you use to clean your saw blades._x000D_
_x000D_B. Bits with Bearings:
_x000D_To clean bits with bearings, first, remove the bearing. Then clean the bit as _x000D_ you did with non-bearing bits.
_x000D_It's important to remove the bearings because even though router bearings are _x000D_ 'sealed,' resin remover can sneak in and dissolve the bearing grease. If this were _x000D_ to happen, you would be faced with the problem of trying to lubricate a sealed bearing._x000D_
_x000D_Despite the claims of bearing grease sellers, we've never had much luck with _x000D_ this. Once that grease is gone, just go buy a new bearing.
_x000D_C. Bit Shanks:
_x000D_Periodically inspect the shanks of your router bits for rust or burrs. Either _x000D_ of these can be removed quickly with ScotchBrite®. Left on, they can _x000D_ interfere with your ability to properly tighten the bit in the collet.
_x000D_How Fast Should a Router be Running?_x000D_
_x000D_If you've got a router with variable speed, then you've got the power to improve _x000D_ the quality of your cut. In general, the larger the bit, the slower the speed you _x000D_ need. The perfect solution for dealing with varying bit sizes is a variable speed _x000D_ router.
_x000D_Here are general guidelines for most bits:
_x000D_Hand Held Router Use

Router Table Safety
_x000D_Although most router bits are small, they can be potentially dangerous and should _x000D_ deserve your attention and respect.
_x000D__x000D_
1 _x000D_
Use push sticks or a push block to position your hands a safe distance from the _x000D_
router bit.
_x000D_ _x000D_ 2 Use large-diameter bits only in a router table. Using bits over 25mm Ø _x000D_ (diameter) in a handheld router can possibly cause you to lose control of the tool _x000D_ and harm yourself or bystanders.
_x000D__x000D_ _x000D_ 3 Always wear a dust mask as well as eye and hearing protection.
_x000D__x000D_ _x000D_ 4 Take light cuts. Heavy cuts invite kickback. If necessary, move the fence _x000D_ closer to the bit or switch to a larger guide bearing/bush.
_x000D__x000D_ _x000D_ 5 Use a featherboard (anti-kickback device) to support the workpiece against _x000D_ the router table and/or fence.
_x000D__x000D_
6 _x000D_
Never climb-cut. Always feed the stock from right to left. Against the rotation _x000D_
of the router bit. (see illustration)
_x000D_ _x000D_ 7 Avoid routing small stock. Instead, rout a larger piece and cut it to size _x000D_ afterwards. If you absolutely have to profile a small piece, build an suitable jig _x000D_ or secure the workpiece.
_x000D__x000D_ _x000D_ 8 Always use a guard. If the fence didn’t come with a guard, make your own.
_x000D__x000D_ _x000D_ 9 Never start the router with the bit in contact with the material.
_x000D__x000D_ _x000D_ 10 Don’t force the router bit or overload the router. Excessive heat is an _x000D_ enemy.
_x000D__x000D_ _x000D_ 11 Secure/fasten the router in the base before starting/switch on the router.
_x000D__x000D_
12 _x000D_
Don’t bottom out the bit in the collet or partially insert the bit. Instead, completely _x000D_
insert the bit, and then back off approximately 2 mm. At least 2/3 _x000D_
's of the router bit shank should be inside the collet.
_x000D_ _x000D_ 13 Be sober and not under the influence of medicine that causes a lack of _x000D_ concentration
_x000D__x000D_ _x000D_ 14 Tidy up your workshop to ensure the ability to move freely with enough _x000D_ room around the router table
