Wood Grooving Router Bit Condor CON-RB-806 32 x 9.4 x 10 mm, 8 mm shank

Condor CON-RB-806 is a wood grooving router bit designed for cutting straight grooves and slots in timber and wood-based materials. With cutting dimensions of 32 x 9.4 x 10 mm and an 8 mm shank, this router bit fits routers and trimmers that accept 8 mm shanks and is intended for applications that require accurate, repeatable groove geometry. The tool is suitable for joinery, panel slotting and furniture edge work where consistent groove width and depth are needed.

Advantages

This grooving router bit provides precise cutting dimensions and clean chip evacuation for smooth groove walls. The 8 mm shank offers good compatibility with common compact routers and trimmers while maintaining concentricity and stability during use. The bit’s geometry is optimised for straight cuts in solid wood and engineered wood, reducing tear-out and minimizing the need for finish sanding inside the groove.

Suitable for

• Cutting straight grooves and slots in solid timber
• Joinery tasks such as tongue-and-groove or slot joints
• Panel slotting for fittings and fixtures
• Furniture edge and panel work requiring consistent groove dimensions

Key specifications

• Cutting diameter: 32 mm
• Cutting width: 9.4 mm
• Cutting depth / height: 10 mm
• Shank diameter: 8 mm
• Intended material: solid wood and wood-based materials

How to use

Secure the router bit in a compatible router or trimmer with an 8 mm collet and ensure the shank is fully seated and tightened. Adjust cutting depth to achieve the required groove depth and set appropriate feed rate and router speed for the workpiece material. Make steady, controlled passes; for deeper grooves consider multiple shallow passes to reduce load on the tool and prevent burning or tear-out. Inspect the groove after cutting and remove any loose fibres with a scraper or fine sandpaper if needed.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate safety equipment including eye and hearing protection and a dust mask. Match router speed and feed rate to the species and moisture content of the wood: higher speeds and moderate feed rates for hard woods, lower speeds for dense or engineered boards. For repeated precision grooves use a guide or fence and check alignment before each pass.
