Made from solid carbide, each bit contains an up cut and down cut flute. This flute design creates a compression cut that prevents fraying and splintering. Compression spirals will save you time and money on finishing your projects edges by reducing sanding time.
- TOOL SPECS: Solid carbide, 1+1 compression spiral with 1/2" cutting diameter, 1/2" shank, 1-5/8" cutting length, and 3-1/2" overall length for use in routers with a 1/2" collet.
- COMPRESSION SPIRAL: Features up cut and down cut edges for a chip-free finish on both the top and bottom of the cut, ensuring clean, precise results.
