Straight Mortising Double Flute router bit describes this Freud Tool router bit that is designed as a straight mortising double flute bit, so it provides a straight cutting profile that suits mortising and similar straight cuts in woodworking projects. The SAP description stating DOUBLE FLUTE STRAIGHT BIT identifies a straight bit with two flutes, which helps move material out of the cut while maintaining a consistent cutting path. The product name specifying Straight Mortising Double Flute, 5/8" Dia. indicates a 5/8 inch diameter, which affects the width of the cut and lets you plan mortises and grooves to that size. The product class listed as Router Bits defines it as a router-mounted cutting tool, so it fits into routing workflows common in cabinet and furniture construction.
The classification as Router Bits means this Straight Mortising Double Flute, 5/8" Dia. is intended for installation in router collets, so it becomes part of a routing system rather than a standalone cutting tool. The web description stating use on CNC and other automatic routers as well as hand-held and table-mounted portable routers confirms it is suitable for machine-mounted, table-mounted, and hand-held routing setups, which lets you move the same cutting profile between shop stations. The 5/8 inch diameter noted in the product name defines the cutting width that must be considered when setting toolpaths, fence positions, or guides, so mortises, dados, or slots can be laid out to the correct finished dimension.
The web description indicating application: General stock removal with a smooth finish identifies this Straight Mortising Double Flute, 5/8" Dia. as a bit aimed at taking down material while leaving a smooth finish, which supports routing tasks like surface passes, trimming edges, or clearing cavity areas. The statement that it cuts all composition materials, plywoods, hardwoods, and softwoods shows this DOUBLE FLUTE STRAIGHT BIT is appropriate for common shop materials ranging from plywood cabinet parts to solid hardwood rails, so a single profile can handle multiple stages of a project. The product category Bits, Blades and Cutters|Straight Mortising places it in straight mortising applications, aligning it with tasks such as routing straight channels or pockets in door frames, panels, or carcass parts. The fact that it is described as a straight mortising double flute bit means the cutting edges run straight rather than profiled, creating flat-sided cuts that are useful for tight-fitting joinery where flat walls aid glue contact and fit.
The DOUBLE FLUTE STRAIGHT BIT description confirms a two-flute configuration, which helps balance cutting forces around the bit and promotes a more even cut, supporting smoother-feeling passes in both automatic and hand-guided router work. The 5/8" Dia. stated in the product name locks in the bit diameter, so once jigs, fences, and CNC toolpaths are set for this dimension, they can be reused whenever the same Freud 04-136 router bit is installed. The use guidance specifying CNC and other automatic routers as well as hand-held and table-mounted portable routers means this bit can stay in a tool inventory that serves both automated and manual operations, which helps keep routing outcomes consistent across different machines. The manufacturer part # 04-136 offers a stable reference when matching spare bits to existing setups, so replacing a worn Straight Mortising Double Flute with the same part keeps cut widths predictable from job to job.
The bit is described for general stock removal with a smooth finish, so it is suited to clearing material while aiming for a smooth surface in routing operations.
The web description states it cuts all composition materials, plywoods, hardwoods, and softwoods, so it covers many common cabinet and woodworking substrates.
The product name lists Straight Mortising Double Flute, 5/8" Dia., so the bit cuts a 5/8 inch wide path useful for mortises and slots of that width.
The web description notes use on CNC and other automatic routers, so it is suitable for CNC routing toolpaths alongside other automatic routing equipment.
The description specifies use on hand-held and table-mounted portable routers, so it fits into portable routing workflows as well as fixed setups.
The DOUBLE FLUTE STRAIGHT BIT description indicates two flutes that remove material on opposite sides of the bit, promoting balanced cutting and supporting smoother-feeling passes.
The Straight Mortising Double Flute, 5/8" Dia. designation identifies a Freud Tool router bit intended for general stock removal with a smooth finish, which suits many routing operations in cabinet and woodworking projects. The ability to cut composition materials, plywoods, hardwoods, and softwoods means one Freud 04-136 router bit can apply across different materials in the same shop, from sheet goods to solid stock. The verified use on CNC, automatic, hand-held, and table-mounted portable routers lets this DOUBLE FLUTE STRAIGHT BIT serve in both machine and manual setups, supporting consistent cutting dimensions wherever it is installed. For projects needing 5/8 inch straight cuts in these materials, this straight mortising router bit aligns the specified diameter and double flute design with common routing workflows.
