Product Description

CMT has developed a tongue and groove cabinet-making system that draws on superior traditional European joinery methods. By combining this system with the ease and speed of modern pocket hole techniques, you gain the versatility to build everything from single cabinets to entire kitchens.

The CMT Tongue and Groove Set includes a matched pair that produces a 6.35mm x 6.35mm (1/4” x 1/4") tongue. What sets the CMT system apart is its offset tongue, which enhances joint strength and provides additional drilling area when used with the CMT Pocket Pro. When the Pocket Pro is set to the one-inch setting, the screw bypasses the tongue, engaging fully with the grooved section for a stronger joint.

For applications where trimming the tongue is necessary, the set includes a 12.7mm (1/2") shank flush trim bit. This system is versatile enough for all cabinet-making joints and, when used with the CMT Pocket Pro System, it combines the best of traditional European joinery with modern methods for face frame joints and concealed areas where bottoms, sides, and dividers attach to the face frame.

CMT carbide tipped router bits produce flawless profiles due to the following features:

SUPERIOR HIGH STRENGTH STEEL BODIES: CMT uses only high-quality, solid bar stock sourced from Switzerland, which provides exceptional resistance to fatigue and abrasion. Larger diameter bodies are heat forged before turning into precise bit bodies. This extra step produces a radial grain orientation which offers large diameter bits extra strength and durability. All machining fully automated ensuring the shanks and bodies are accurate and perfectly balanced.

ANTI-KICKBACK DESIGN: This design controls the depth of cut and minimizes the chance of kickback, reducing your risk of injury.

SINTERHIP HI-DENSITY INDUSTRIAL CHROME CARBIDE: CMT uses specially formulating chrome carbide specially designed to cut wood and laminates. A new process called SinterHIP (Hot Isostatic Pressing), helps prevent material failure and increases cutting life.

TRI-METAL BRAZING: CMTs silver-copper-silver brazing “sandwich” provides a tight bond between the steel and the carbide, with a shock absorbing effect to protect the carbide tips when cutting harder woods and reduces the chance of failed welds.

NON-STICK ORANGE SHIELD COATING®: Prevents bit from heating up, reduces pitch build-up, protects against corrosion, and provides a longer bit life.

MULTI-AXIS GRINDING CREATES A MIRROR FINISH LASTING 3X LONGER: Sharpening is done to extreme precision on multi-axis CNC machines. Each bevel and angle are ground or sharpened to the micron, to produce a cutting edge that is both razor sharp, yet extremely durable.
