Answer This Question

I don't think N042786 will fit. N042786 includes the clamp. On the DCG416 Type 10, the clamp is part of the grinder. To use N042786 the screw (N137733), lever (N136731), & spring (N105579) would need to be removed from the grinder.

                Does Dewalt make router bits or will any 1/4" work?
                ByNov 20, 2025
                1 Answer | 
                Answer This Question

                Any 1/4" router bit is compatible with the DEWALT DCW600B, since it has a 1/4" collet capacity. Do not use router bits with a cutting diameter in excess of 1-3/8" (34.9 mm) in this tool. Always use cutters with a shank diameter of 1/4" (6.4 mm) which corresponds to the size of the collet in your tool.

                      Great battery that is very versatile and snaps in quickly with my dewalt tools. The flex volt comes with a battery cover too to keep it clean when transporting and keeping dirt and grim out of it. Great battery.

                      Small design makes it easy to control.
                      Bought this router to help build a sign for a new family business. It worked great! The compact size makes it easy to control. The LED lights really helped when I was free handing the design. Made it quite easy to see the lines I had to follow. This is a great little tool.

                        The router performed as expected. It’s very compact yet in powerful. Since it is battery operated, it’s easier to use and the cord doesn’t get in the way.

                        Everything is great! I got it at a really good price thanks to an excellent offer. The product looks to be in great condition, and I hope it performs well under heavy use! DeWalt has tools that live up to the brand's promises. I'll be keeping an eye out for Home Depot's deals to continue expanding my collection of DeWalt tools and accessories!

                        Safety features prevented a bad day/injury
                        This thing just saved me a trip to the hospital due to me being stupid. Don’t usually write tool reviews last one I wrote was on a Milwaukee jigsaw because some dude didn’t know how to use them and returned six but mine was fine(I’ve come to like the dewalt jigsaw more but the Milwaukee has its place). Anyway writing this review to thank the engineers that designed this thing specifically the safety features you guys prevented a really bad day for me thank you. I love the safety features in dewalts I’m sure it takes a bit more money for engineers but it was worth it for me today

                          Great tool that is really convenient to use. Lasts a long time with the flexvolt batteries. So much better and quicker than dragging out the router and finding an extension cord. Great buy and solid tool

                          Amazing
                          Got this as my first router, it has been amazing, its the best
                          by
                            This is a nice compact router. It slips in and out of the base quickly for fast bit changes. I bought a round base so I could use standard guide bushings. I also bought a Dust Right edge dust collector that works with any standard guide bushings based on plate. The router has plenty of power for most of what I do. I think I will buy another so I don’t have to keep switching between the round base plate and my Milescraft circle guide. This router can easily be controlled with one hand and the braling system is fast.
