This is what you need for your Porter Cable 4212/4214/4216 Dovetail jig if you have a smaller router that only accepts 1/4 bits. Not much else to say - it works great, holds up as one would expect - stays sharpest when cutting soft woods of course, which is also most needed when cutting softwood to get a clean cut.It isn't as good as using a 1/2 shank bit - but if you had that ability, you probably weren't looking for this little gem either!

If you have a router with a 1/4" shank, and want to use a Porter-Cable 4200 series dovetail jig, then this bit is your solution. I recently purchased a used 4210 jig and needed to buy a new bit anyway. I figured I would get one from Porter-Cable, to use original equipment, but they only supply a 1/2" shank bit. The problem is that my only 1/2" shank router is what I use in my router table and the router that I would be using for this only has a 1/4" shank. So I researched and found this. Got it, tried it out, and it worked like it should, no issues.

I needed a 1/4" dovetail router bit to go with my Porter Cable dovetail jig (7 degree 17/32). This router bit worked perfectly! Super clean edges with no tear out. Will continue to buy this router bit for my PC jig!

This is a good solid router bit. I bought it to use with my PC dovetail jig. I have a Bosch router and the dovetail bit supplied with the Jig is pretty short. I only get about 1/2" of grab in the collet. This bit is a good 5/8" inch longer and has plenty of grab in the router collet.
