Kreg MortiseMate 8 mm Mortising Cutter gives an 8 mm carbide-tipped bit that creates precise, clean mortises sized for Kreg 8 mm tenons, so joints seat accurately and stay consistent across a run of parts. The cutter is only for use with the Kreg MortiseMate Loose Tenon Jig, which ties the bit directly to a guided mortising process for repeatable joint locations. Carbide-tipped construction is rated to withstand over 5,000 joints, depending on material, so the same cutter supports long production runs before needing replacement. Spiral flutes clear material as they cut, which keeps the mortise walls clean and reduces rework before assembly. Laser-etched markings on the bit show mortise depth settings at a glance, so adjustments stay quick and measurable instead of relying on guesswork. A stainless steel stop collar controls cutting depth, so mortises stop at the same point on every piece for consistent joint strength.
The 8 mm MortiseMate Mortising Cutter works with any drill, so the bit fits directly into common drilling workflows on site or in the shop. Laser-etched markings on the bit give visible depth references, so installers set mortise depth by aligning the stainless steel stop collar to the required mark. That stop collar then limits cutting depth, which keeps all mortises on a project the same depth for predictable joint engagement with Kreg 8 mm tenons. Spiral flutes on the cutter move chips out of the cut as drilling progresses, which supports smoother feed and helps the drill maintain steady speed. Because this cutter is only for use with the Kreg MortiseMate Loose Tenon Jig, the bit works as part of that guided system to keep mortise position, depth, and size aligned for loose tenon joinery.
The Kreg MortiseMate 8 mm Mortising Cutter is a mortising drill bit classified under mortising drill bits, so it serves as the cutting tool in loose tenon joinery when matched to Kreg 8 mm tenons. It is designed for use with the Kreg MortiseMate Loose Tenon Jig, so it fits projects where that jig locates mortises in parts such as rails, stiles, or similar components that need 8 mm mortises. The carbide-tipped cutting edges are specified to withstand over 5,000 joints or more, depending on material, which suits production-style use where the same joint size repeats across many pieces. Because the cutter works with any drill, it integrates into drilling setups ranging from shop benches to on-site assembly where a drill and the MortiseMate jig guide the operation. By creating perfectly sized mortises for Kreg 8 mm tenons, the bit anchors the loose tenon system as the size-specific cutting element.
Carbide-tipped construction supports the cutter across thousands of joints, depending on material, which helps maintain cutting performance and consistent mortise sizing over long runs. Spiral flutes along the 8 mm cutter body produce precise, clean cuts, which keeps mortise walls smooth and helps tenons slide into place without binding at high spots. The stainless steel stop collar mounted on the bit controls depth of cut, so every mortise stops at the same depth when drilling against the Kreg MortiseMate Loose Tenon Jig. Laser-etched markings on the bit surface provide depth indicators, which link collar position to specific mortise depths for repeatable setups between batches or projects. Because the cutter is only for use with the Kreg MortiseMate Loose Tenon Jig, its dimensions are matched to that system so mortise size, tenon size, and jig positioning work together. These details combine so installers and serious DIY users can produce strong loose tenon joints with consistent fit from first part to last.
The Kreg MortiseMate 8 mm Mortising Cutter creates mortises sized for Kreg 8 mm tenons, which supports accurate loose tenon joints with matching tenon dimensions.
The cutter is only for use with the Kreg MortiseMate Loose Tenon Jig, which keeps mortise location and size aligned with the loose tenon joinery system.
The MortiseMate 8 mm mortising cutter works with any drill, so it fits into existing corded or cordless drilling setups while using the MortiseMate jig.
The carbide tipped bit is specified to withstand over 5,000 joints, or more depending on material, which supports extended use on repetitive mortising work.
The stainless steel stop collar sets the cutting depth on the bit, so drilling stops at a consistent depth to match targeted mortise depths across parts.
The laser-etched markings show mortise depth settings along the bit, which lets users position the stop collar to dial in specific depth requirements.
The Kreg MortiseMate 8 mm Mortising Cutter is identified as model KLTJC-M08, so selection is straightforward when a project calls for 8 mm mortises within the MortiseMate system. Its carbide tipped construction, spiral flutes, and stainless steel stop collar are all specified to support precise, repeatable mortise cutting when paired with the Kreg MortiseMate Loose Tenon Jig and Kreg 8 mm tenons. For shops and serious DIY users working in loose tenon joinery, this cutter aligns bit size, mortise depth markings, and jig use into a single process that keeps joints consistent from layout to final assembly.
