What router bit do I need for oak and hickory?
| Wood | Janka (lbf) | Shank | Depth per pass |
|---|---|---|---|
| Red oak | 1,290 | 1/4 in ok to 6 mm, 1/2 in above | 3-6 mm |
| White oak | 1,360 | 1/2 in | 3-5 mm |
| Hard maple | 1,450 | 1/2 in | 3 mm |
| Hickory | 1,820 | 1/2 in only | 2-3 mm |
Speed: 16,000-18,000 rpm for a 1/2 in bit in these woods. Run faster and the edge scorches; run slower and the bit hammers instead of slicing.
Order of cuts that works: climb cut 0.5 mm to establish the edge, then conventional passes at 3 mm each, then one full-depth finishing pass with a bearing guided bit.
