Infinity Tools 1/2" Shank Straight Router Bits w/ Plunge Point

Yes. These bits have a 1/2" shank, so your router must accept a 1/2" collet, which most mid-size and full-size routers do. If you only have a 1/4" collet, see our 1/4" shank straight bits instead.

A 1/2" shank has more mass and stiffness, so it resists deflection and vibration. This delivers smoother cuts and lets you run taller cutters and deeper passes safely, especially in hardwoods.

It lets you lower the bit straight down into the middle of a workpiece to begin an interior cut. The point cuts a smooth entry and the bit leaves a flat bottom, which standard straight bits cannot do cleanly.

These bits come in 1/2" and 3/4" cutter diameters with cutter heights of 1", 1-1/2", and 2", so you can match the bit to the depth of cut you need.

Downshear geometry angles the cutting edges to push chips downward, producing ultra-smooth cuts on the top face of the stock and reducing tear-out in veneered panels and plywood.

They are ideal for dadoes, rabbets, deep mortises, stopped grooves, and pattern routing. The tall cutters and rigid shank make them a good choice for heavier joinery work.

For best results, plunge in shallow steps rather than dropping to full depth at once. This keeps the cut clean, reduces strain on the bit, and takes full advantage of the flat-bottom design.

Yes. The rigid 1/2" shank performs especially well table-mounted. Pair them with our router table accessories for controlled, repeatable cuts.

Overall length ranges from 2-1/2" to 3-1/4" depending on the cutter diameter and height you select.
