Achieve Mirror-Smooth Finishes with Freud’s Industrial Double Flute Straight Bit Technology
The Freud 12-158 Double Flute Straight Bit is the professional woodworker’s choice for high-precision grooving, edge-routing, and general-purpose joinery. Engineered with precise hook and shear angles, this bit delivers exceptionally fast cutting speeds while maintaining a glass-smooth finish in hardwoods, softwoods, plywood, and composite materials. Whether you are crafting intricate cabinetry or performing heavy-duty material removal, the dual-flute geometry ensures a balanced cut with minimal vibration, significantly reducing the need for post-cut sanding.
Constructed with Freud’s proprietary TiCo™ Hi-Density Carbide, the 12-158 is designed for maximum durability and a significantly longer cutting life compared to standard carbide bits. The tips are specially relieved to allow for efficient, burn-free plunge cuts, making it ideal for creating deep mortises or interior cutouts. Optimized for use in CNC machines, table-mounted routers, and hand-held portable routers, this heavy-duty 1/2-inch shank bit provides the stability and industrial-grade performance required for the most demanding shop environments.
Key Features
- TiCo™ Hi-Density Carbide: Specially formulated carbide provides a sharper edge and resists wear for extended tool life.
- Double Flute Design: Two cutting edges create a cleaner finish and allow for faster feed rates in all wood types.
- Plunge Cut Efficiency: Relieved tips allow the bit to dive directly into the material for clean mortises and pockets.
- Precision Balance: Computer-balanced to eliminate vibration and chatter, ensuring high-accuracy routing at up to 24,000 RPM.
- Perma-SHIELD® Coating: Non-stick coating reduces heat buildup, friction, and resin accumulation.
- Universal Compatibility: Engineered for peak performance in CNC, hand-held, and table-mounted router applications.
- Versatile Application: Perfect for grooving, dadoes, rabbets, and edge-routing in solid wood and plywood.
