Review: Excellent, sharp, well designed router bit - This is one of the best router bits I have bought. Beautifully engineered, strong shoulders on the shank, and very sharp. With 2 flutes instead of just 1, it cuts very easily without vibration and no irregularities to ter the wood. I have found it excellent with both hard woods and pine. All round, an excellent bit. Review: Unusual router bit from UK company: makes 1/4 1/4 1/4 joints easy with 12mm plywood - The 'quarter/quarter/ quarter joint ( see my drawing) is a fast way of making a box out of plywood: recommended in many US YouTube videos. However, in UK and other european countries plywood 1/2 inch thick is rarely obtainable. If you want to use the commoner 12mm thick ply, you can use a 1/4 inch straight router bit, but the distance S has to be 5.65mm, which makes it difficult to set the distance of the bit from the fence. This item, from a UK manufacturer, allows all the dimensions in the drawing to be cut to 6mm, but the tool fits all the US-made routers ( 1/4'' shank) . ## Features - VERSATILE 2-FLUTE STRAIGHT CUTTERS: Designed for multiple routing tasks like edge trimming, grooving, and rebating; delivers high-quality finishes at slower feed speeds due to limited waste clearance. - TUNGSTEN CARBIDE TIPPED: 2.0mm micro-granular extra-hard tips for prolonged sharpness and cutter durability. Ideal for cutting softwood, hardwood, and man-made timber boards. - PTFE NON-STICK COATING: Its PTFE non-stick coating reduces friction, minimises resin build-up and extends the cutter's lifespan for uninterrupted router performance. - PRECISION CUTTING: The highly ground tip face is polished to 800-grit to ensure accurate cutting with a fine finish for professional routing results. - SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY: Longer shanks accommodate both handheld and table routers. Features a Safety K-Mark for optimal shank positioning. EN Shank Markings for visible cutter safety data. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00465PILQ | | Best Sellers Rank | 862 in DIY & Tools ( See Top 100 in DIY & Tools ) 1 in Router Accessories & Parts 7 in Cutting Tools | | Brand | Trend | | Country Of Origin | Taiwan | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 3,764 Reviews | | Cut Type | Straight Cut | | Cut type | Straight Cut | | Cutting Diameter | 6 mm Millimetres | | Cutting Length | 20 mm Millimetres | | Cutting length | 20 mm Millimetres | | Global Trade Identification Number | 05027654034484 | | Included Components | Two Flute Cutter 6.0mm diameter | | Item Diameter | 6 Millimetres | | Item Type Name | 1/4" Shank Straight Router Cutter Bit | | Item Weight | 14 g | | Item weight | 14 g | | Manufacturer | Trend | | Manufacturer Part Number | C005BX1/4TC | | Material | Carbide | | Model Number | C005BX1/4TC | | Number of Flutes | 2 | | Size | Shank 6.35 mm x Dia 6 mm x Cut 20 mm | | Size Name | Shank 6.35 mm x Dia 6 mm x Cut 20 mm | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | ## Product Details - **Size:** 6.0MM DIA X 20MM CUT - **Material:** Carbide - **Brand:** Trend - **Cutting length:** 20 mm Millimetres - **Item weight:** 14 g ## Images ![Trend CraftPro Straight Two Flute Router Cutter Bit, 1/4 Inch Shank, 6mm Cut Diameter & 20mm Cut Length, Tungsten Carbide Tipped, C005BX1/4TC - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71ikctZKjRL.jpg) ![Trend CraftPro Straight Two Flute Router Cutter Bit, 1/4 Inch Shank, 6mm Cut Diameter & 20mm Cut Length, Tungsten Carbide Tipped, C005BX1/4TC - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61yGprZB4BL.jpg) ![Trend CraftPro Straight Two Flute Router Cutter Bit, 1/4 Inch Shank, 6mm Cut Diameter & 20mm Cut Length, Tungsten Carbide Tipped, C005BX1/4TC - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61c0Ar7vu3L.jpg) ![Trend CraftPro Straight Two Flute Router Cutter Bit, 1/4 Inch Shank, 6mm Cut Diameter & 20mm Cut Length, Tungsten Carbide Tipped, C005BX1/4TC - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/21shXPLJLcL.jpg) ![Trend CraftPro Straight Two Flute Router Cutter Bit, 1/4 Inch Shank, 6mm Cut Diameter & 20mm Cut Length, Tungsten Carbide Tipped, C005BX1/4TC - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41b0m4r6JqL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: What applications are Trend's Craft Pro cutters suitable for?** A: These versatile cutters are ideal for a range of routing tasks including edge trimming, grooving, rebating, slotting, and general joinery work.

The first thing I found using this bit was how much quieter and quicker it was compared to the bits that came with my Bosch 1200 router. The only effort needed was to keep the router running straight with the guide and let the bit do the work. Very happy with the crisp clean and consistent cut it's produced on all five drawers and it shows that paying a bit more for quality tools works out cheaper in the long run. ## Frequently Bought Together - Trend CraftPro Straight Two Flute Router Cutter Bit, 1/4 Inch Shank, 6mm Cut Diameter & 20mm Cut Length, Tungsten Carbide Tipped, C005BX1/4TC - Trend CraftPro Guided Profiler Router Cutter Bit, 1/4 Inch Shank, 9.5mm Cut Diameter & 6.35mm Cut Length, Tungsten Carbide Tipped, C121GX1/4TC - Trend CraftPro Guided Trimmer Router Cutter Bit, 1/4 Inch Shank, 6.35mm Cut Diameter & 25.4mm Cut Length, Tungsten Carbide Tipped, C168X1/4TC --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/76693441-trend-craftpro-straight-two-flute-router-cutter-bit-1-4](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/76693441-trend-craftpro-straight-two-flute-router-cutter-bit-1-4) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-06-02*
