Achieve Flawless Splinter-Free Mortises with Freud’s Advanced Down-Shear Technology

The Freud 16-116 Mortising Router Bit is the professional woodworker's solution for creating clean, precise recesses in challenging materials like plywood, veneer, and solid hardwoods. Featuring a specialized down-shear design, this bit eliminates top-surface splintering by pushing wood fibers downward during the cut, ensuring a professional, glass-smooth result every time. Its 23/32-inch diameter is specifically optimized for cutting perfect grooves and mortises for 3/4-inch plywood applications, making it an essential tool for high-end cabinetry and furniture construction.

Built for industrial performance, this bit features deep center gullets that facilitate rapid material removal without the risk of chip loading or overheating. Protected by Freud’s legendary Perma-SHIELD® non-stick coating, the 16-116 resists heat buildup and pitch accumulation, significantly extending the life of the carbide cutters. Whether you are recessing hinges and hardware or routing precise dadoes, the heavy-duty 1/2-inch shank ensures maximum stability and reduced vibration in CNC machines, hand-held routers, or table-mounted setups.

Key Features

  • Down-Shear Cutting Design: Specifically angled to push fibers down for clean, splinter-free top surfaces.
  • Fast Material Removal: Deep center gullets allow for maximum material evacuation without chip loading.
  • Perma-SHIELD® Coating: Protects the bit from heat, resin, and pitch buildup to ensure long-lasting sharpness.
  • Plywood Optimized: Ideal for routing precise 23/32" grooves and mortises in 3/4" plywood projects.
  • Universal Compatibility: Designed for superior performance on CNC, hand-held, and table-mounted portable routers.
  • Multi-Material Excellence: Delivers precise results in plywood, veneers, solid wood, and composite materials.
  • High-Speed Stability: Heavy-duty 1/2-inch shank reduces chatter and vibration even at high RPMs.

Pro-Tip: To ensure the longest life for your mortising bit and avoid burn marks, use a "staged" routing technique for deep cuts. Instead of cutting the full depth in one pass, take multiple shallow passes of about 1/8" at a time. This allows the deep gullets to evacuate chips more effectively and prevents excessive heat buildup on the carbide edges.

Super fast one day shipping. The quality is good and the fit is good. He is 5 foot 11 and his waist is 30 inches. He has long arms and the jacket lands perfectly at his wrist. The pants were a little large in the waist and the length is a little long.
