Amana Tool 48218-K 6mm Downcut Spiral Router Bit

 

Spiral-flute bits combine a shearing action in cutting with an augering action in chip clearance. The shearing action yields an especially clean, accurate cut. The augering action helps clear chips from the cut. This can support smoother routing and more efficient material removal. It is especially useful when repeatability matters across multiple parts.

The ‘Down-Cut’ cuts from the surface down, leaving a smooth edge at the surface. This Spiral Flute design can help maintain a cleaner top edge. It is useful when surface finish matters on visible faces. It also supports controlled cutting in common sheet materials used in cabinetry and production work.
