Spares Bridge specs
Key dimensions, cutter types and fit checks for Spares Bridge replacements are listed here. Match diameter, shank size, profile and coating before a worn or broken tool goes back into the spindle.
Replacement cutter sizes for Spares Bridge
Measurements and tooling details for replacement cutters include less common sizes and profiles. Confirm the exact spare needed for your CNC setup before ordering.
Check the cutting material first, then compare the spare against the existing tool holder and collet. MDF, plywood, acrylic and aluminium each place different demands on flute form, chip clearance and feed settings, especially on busy CNC routers running long shifts in Johannesburg, Durban or Cape Town.
A quick photo of the old cutter beside a rule helps when the profile is uncommon or partly worn away. Include any visible markings on the shank or box label so the spare can be matched to the correct bridge setup, coating and cut depth limits.
Details to verify before ordering
The specs confirm the spare by actual measurement, not by a rough description from the workshop. Diameter, flute length, overall length and shank size should line up with the machine setup, the workpiece thickness and the holder you are using on the current job.
Check the drawing, the holder and the spindle capacity before requesting a substitute from the spares-bridge range linked under Tooling, Cells and Chips.
Storage and fit checks in SA
Across Johannesburg, Durban and Cape Town, replacement tooling often gets checked against a live machine rather than a shelf label. Match shank diameter, cut length, profile and coating before a spare is booked out for production. For busy shops running mixed board and aluminium work, keeping the urgent replacement separate from routine stock ordering avoids the wrong cutter landing at the spindle.
Power interruptions matter when the first test cut is being set, because zero points and warm-up routines may need to be repeated. On production jobs, it helps to separate the urgent spare for the active machine from stock held for routine cutter changes across the wider workshop.

Measurements worth recording on site
Use Spares Bridge when a replacement bit, cutter or matching coated tool is needed to keep an active job on track.
Note the material being cut, spindle speed, feed rate and pass depth when the current tool still produces an acceptable edge. Those figures make it easier to compare a replacement bit, cutter or rainbow-coated option on Spares Bridge specs without relying only on a part name.
