Built from solid carbide, the bit measures 0.5 inches in cutter diameter with a 1-inch length of cut and a 3-inch overall length. The 0.5-inch shank diameter provides secure chuck engagement. Left-hand cutting geometry suits specific fixturing setups and climb-cutting operations where surface finish or material holddown demands it. This bit is suited for use by machinists, fabricators, and shop technicians working with plastics, composites, and solid surface materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 56-162L is intended for use on a broad range of hard materials including ABS, acetal, acrylic, fiberglass, foam, nylon, polyvinylchloride, phenolic, and solid surfaces. It fits standard CNC router spindles and handheld router platforms accepting a 0.5-inch collet. Typical applications include profile routing, edge trimming, and through-cutting of sheet and plate stock in fabrication and production environments. The double edge router style allows efficient chip evacuation during straight-flute cuts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for durability and edge retention in hard materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSquare end geometry for flat-bottomed cuts and clean edge profiles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLeft-hand cutting direction suited for specific climb-cut and fixturing applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDouble edge, straight flute design promotes chip clearance during through-cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.5-inch shank diameter fits standard half-inch collets on CNC and handheld routers\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo pilot  -  suitable for freehand and template-guided routing setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use on ABS, acetal, acrylic, fiberglass, foam, nylon, polyvinylchloride, phenolic, and solid surface materials. Fits any router spindle or collet accepting a 0.5-inch shank.

Power down and lock out the router or CNC spindle before inserting or removing the bit. Insert the shank fully into the collet to the manufacturer-specified minimum engagement depth before tightening. Verify spindle rotation direction matches the left-hand cutting geometry of this bit before operation, as running a left-hand bit on a standard right-hand spindle will not produce a cutting action.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutter Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Square\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRouter Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Double Edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Left Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBit Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePiloted\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 56-000P\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.26 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ONSRUD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 56-162L\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ONSRUD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67909752717618,"sku":"56-162L","price":214.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/30a645967a0fb0b679e17dfcfda68a83.jpg?v=1791191276","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/onsrud-56-162l-router-bit-1-2in-2-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
