TREND Mortise cutter | 5/52X1/2TC

Trend 5/52X1/2TC Mortise Cutter (12.7mm Diameter, 1/2" Shank)

Trend 5/52X1/2TC mortise cutter is a TCT router cutter designed for deep mortising and grooving, helping you produce clean recesses with effective chip clearance.

With a 12.7mm (1/2") diameter and 1/2" shank, this cutter suits workshop and site routing where a robust cutter is needed for mortise work. For standard 19mm lock mortises, two width cuts are required.

Key Features

• TCT cutting edges: Tungsten carbide-tipped design for durable cutting performance in mortising tasks.
• Staggered cutting surfaces: Helps maintain efficient cutting action during deep routing operations.
• Deep mortising capability: 50mm cutting length supports deeper mortises and grooves in fewer passes where appropriate.
• Chip clearance: Designed to promote good chip evacuation for cleaner routing and reduced clogging.
• 1/2" shank: Common router shank size for a secure fit in compatible collets.
