Experience 2X Tool Life and Precision Inlays with the Freud 3/16 Inch Black I.C.E. Straight Router Bit

Maximize your precision and durability with the Freud 04-103 3/16 Inch Double Flute Straight Bit. Ideally suited for intricate groove work, inlays, and fine joinery, this bit features Freud's revolutionary Black I.C.E. (Industrial Cooling Element) coating. This slick, high-tech coating protects the cutting edge by repelling heat and pitch buildup, allowing the tool to run significantly cooler than standard bits. When combined with Freud's exclusive TiCo Hi-Density Carbide, this advanced engineering delivers up to 2X the cutting life and performance of standard uncoated cutters.

The 04-103 is designed for professional versatility and superior finish quality across a range of materials, including hardwood, softwood, plywood, and abrasive composites. Its computer-balanced double flute geometry utilizes precise hook and shear angles to slice cleanly through wood fibers, ensuring a smooth finish that often requires no sanding. The carbide tips are also relief-ground to facilitate safe and effective plunge cutting, making this tool perfect for starting blind grooves or intricate mortises directly in the center of a workpiece. Whether you are using a CNC machine for detailed lettering or a hand-held router for joinery, this bit offers the reliability you need.

Key Features

  • Black I.C.E. Coating: Advanced coating reduces heat, improves chip evacuation, and prevents pitch buildup for a cooler cut.
  • TiCo Hi-Density Carbide: Proprietary blend maximizes hardness and edge retention for extended tool life.
  • 2X Performance: Delivers twice the life and performance compared to standard uncoated router bits.
  • Double Flute Design: Two precision-ground edges ensure fast material removal and a superior finish.
  • Plunge Cutting Ready: Relieved tips allow for vertical drilling and starting grooves anywhere on the material.
  • Small Diameter Precision: 3/16 inch diameter is perfect for inlays, lettering, and fine detailing.
  • Versatile Compatibility: Engineered for use in CNC, hand-held, and table-mounted routers.

  • (1) 3/16 In. Double Flute Straight Bit with 1/4 In. Shank (Model 04-103)

Pro-Tip: Small diameter bits like this 3/16" cutter are very susceptible to heat buildup and breakage if forced. To extend the life of the bit and utilize the Black I.C.E. coating effectively, never cut the full 5/8" depth in a single pass. Make multiple shallow passes (approx. 1/8" per pass) to keep the bit cool and the cut clean.

Legs seem decently thick. They could be a little sturdier. The paint has stayed with no chips or flakes. Color has not faded. It sits at the perfect height for a desk. Screws and hardware do the job. No welds to speak of, everything screws together. I’ve used these for a year and a half as a school desk and has held up well. I took a sheet of project board with stain and polyurethane as my top. Works excellent

Very sturdy legs!
Style: Zig Zag, Size: 28 inch, Style: Zig Zag, Size: 28 inch
The legs are very well built and good looking, however, the screws included for installation are only 9/16" long which is not nearly enough for table legs of this size. I installed the legs on a 30" x 83" live edge oak tabletop that is full 2" thick. I purchased 1 1/4" screws for the install making the table very solid.
