EANOSIC Downcut Spiral Router Bits 1/4 inch Shank, 1/4 inch Cutting Diameter Solid Carbide with Nano Blue Coating CNC Router Bits End Mill for Wood Cut, Carving

Downcut bits are my go to for profiling to keep the edges crisp and chip/splinter free. This bit does not disappoint. Great value for a high quality, sharp bit.

great bit

This is doing its job just fine of creating dadoes for 1/4 luan plywood to rest in. Bit was sharp out of the package and seems to hold an edge, at least in softwoods. I have not had a chance to run it through any walnut yet. Not sure what if anything the blue coating is doing besides being blue. If extended use changes my opinion I can update this review but initial impressions are 4/5 stars.

Smokes badly with MDF. Not recommended for MDF

I love the clean lines this bit makes. I know what I was getting into before getting this bit. It is a down cut so I reduced my depth on each pass to ensure I dont overload my machine. I havent upgraded my router yet and Im still running the original 300-watt motor. If I had a stronger router, I would feel more comfortable going a little deeper and faster per pass. This is due to the waste that comes out of the cuts being forced down vs up and out. In the end though, I have good looking final products with little cleanup to do on the edges.

I got this bit to help with a big roughing project I was doing - building out parts from my x-carve for some furniture. I really wanted the 1/4 size and this fit the bill perfectly - not just for size. It was so easy to use this thing, and the carbide construction and coating on the blade added a lot of precision to the job. The bit is super sharp, and it was not even burnished once I was done cutting out multiple instances of a 3/4 plywood stool I was building. In any case, its a great bit, and Ill like it even more when I use it for some projects that dont plunge all the way through the material.

This downcut spiral router bit is very well made and the Nano Blue high hardness coating stays sharper long than typical carbide end mill bits. This bit is a very common size and is used for many wood projects and this price is hard to beat. I highly recommend it!

This bit is very well made sharp and stays sharp. I used it to groove drawer boxes for 1/4” babel to fit in the bottom. I put about 100 linear feet of hard maple through it 1/4” deep and it stayed consistent and did not burn the bit. Highly recommend this product.

Ive used this to cut a few projects out and I have no complaints about the performance. I wish the bit holder had a label on it for easy identification. The price is right, though.

This router bit works great and is a great value for the money!
