3.175 mm, 6 mm or 8 mm shank: how do I pick?
| Shank | Typical use | Limit |
|---|---|---|
| 3.175 mm (1/8 in) | PCB, engraving, micro end mills under 3 mm | Flexes; shallow depth only |
| 6 mm | General hobby CNC, aluminium, wood | The practical default |
| 8 mm | Deeper cuts, harder material | Needs an 8 mm collet |
| 1/4 in (6.35 mm) | US routers and trim routers | Not interchangeable with 6 mm |
The mistake people make: assuming 6 mm and 1/4 in are the same. They differ by 0.35 mm — enough to slip and ruin both the collet and the workpiece.
