Cutting height (or cut length) dictates how deep you can cut in a single pass with a compression router bit, impacting efficiency and the types of projects you can tackle. A greater cutting height allows for deeper cuts or thicker materials, while shorter heights provide more stability and are ideal for shallower grooves or surface work. For example, the Amana Tool 46170-K offers a 7/8" cutting height for versatile applications, whereas the Amana Tool 46200-K provides a 1/2" cut height suited for thinner materials. A variety of cutting heights are available so you can select the right bit for your material thickness and project scope.
