Overall length determines how deep the bit can reach and affects the clearance between the router and the workpiece. Longer bits are useful for thicker materials and deeper cuts, while shorter bits provide better control and less deflection for precision work. For example, the 46451 offers a 4" overall length for extended reach, while the 56126 is more compact at 1-7/8" for greater stability. A variety of lengths are available, enabling users to choose the best option for their specific routing setup and application.
