MPN: 03-128
Minimum order quantity is .
Meet the Freud 03-128 3/16" (Dia.) Single Flute Straight Bit — a workhorse for high-volume routing that delivers quick, clean results where it counts. This bit is engineered for fast material removal with maximum chip clearance, helping you push through production runs without stalling.
Designed to cut hardwood, softwood, plywood, and composites, it excels on CNC machines, handheld routers, and table-mounted routers alike. The single-flute geometry enhances chip evacuation, minimizes clogging, and maintains a consistent cut even in dense or layered materials.
Key advantages
- Maximum chip clearance for fast feed rates, speeding up busy production environments
- Single flute design that promotes efficient chip evacuation and steady cutting action
- Versatile across materials — hardwood, softwood, plywood, and composites
- Adaptable to CNC, handheld, and table-mounted routers for flexible workflows
- Produces true, straight cuts with clean edges, ideal for dadoes, grooves, and straight-trim operations
Ideal use cases
- Edge routing and straight-trim passes on cabinet parts and furniture components
- Grooving and dado-like cuts in plywood and composite boards
- Joint preparation and precise slotting in multi-piece assemblies
Practical tips for best results
- Match feed rate and depth per pass to material density to take full advantage of the chip-clearing design
- Securely clamp workpieces and use steady, even feeds to maintain square, clean cuts
- Test cuts on scrap material to dial in the optimal RPM and feed settings for your setup
- Keep the bit sharp and free of pitch build-up to preserve edge quality and tool life
Who benefits
Ideal for professional shops and serious hobbyists who demand dependable, high-production performance from a straight bit. If your work involves rapid material removal, straight-edge cuts, and consistent results across woods and composites, the Freud 03-128 is built to keep pace with your workflow.
