Materials: Natural woods, hard plastics, soft plastics, aluminum

Recommended RPM: 16,000-18,000 (max 24,000)

The best bit for plastic projects, made from solid carbide and designed to utilize a shear cutting action to provide a smooth cut. This design will also decrease the build up of material on the cutting edge. The spiral flute outperforms traditional o-flute straight bits by providing the absolute best cut and superior chip ejection.

TOOL SPECS: Solid carbide, up cut, o-flute spiral with 1/2" cutting diameter, 1/2" shank, 2" cutting length, and 4" overall length for use in routers with a 1/2" collet.
O-FLUTE: The oval shaped flute allows for rapid chip removal away from the cutting edge, preventing soft materials from sticking or gumming up the cutting edge.
UP CUT SPIRAL: Ideal for smooth finishes and rapid chip removal. Up cut spirals create a clean edge on the side of the material that is farthest from the router.
HELIX: The spiral helix gently sweeps through the material, ensuring clean, crisp cuts while outperforming standard straight bits.
MATERIALS: Performs best in plastic and aluminums, especially in soft materials where melting is a concern. Also performs well in solid woods.
MACHINES: Designed for hand-held routers, router tables, and CNC machines in a wide variety of applications.
