Whiteside 1058 1/4-inch straight router bit
1/2 in
When to choose it
Choose the 1058 to cut a narrow straight groove with a router that takes a 1/2-inch shank. The 1/4-inch cutter determines the nominal width of a single pass, while the larger shank determines collet fit.
The profile has no pilot bearing in the source photo. Plan how to locate the groove with a compatible guide or fence. If a 1/4-inch collet is your only option, compare the 1014, which uses that shank with the same nominal cut width.
