Shank
The drive shaft of the machine, collet and cutter shaft form a unit.
The more accurate the individual components, the higher the possible
accuracy of the router set.
To ensure a safe seat of the cutter in the collet, all cutter-shanks of the
Metabo cutters are ground to a tol. of -0.005 to -0.020 mm. The minimum
clamping length on each cutter shank is 20 mm and the shank-ends are
all chamfered.
