A router bit for providing smooth finish cuts in soft metal, such as aluminum, includes a plurality of helical cutting edges that are disposed at a helix angle of 45 degrees. The cutting edges each include a cutting face having a positive rake angle of approximately 18 degrees, and a land portion having a primary relief angle of approximately 14 degrees, and a secondary relief angle of approximately 20 degrees. The bit shank is preferably 3/8 inch in diameter to increase rigidity. The combination of these specific angles and the shank diameter provides a cutting bit that can cut soft aluminum with a resultant finish that meets or exceeds aircraft industry standards.
