Foos Straight Carbide Router bits - 1/4” Shank - USA Veteran Owned (1/4 Cutting Diameter)

Good quality at a fair price. Ive only cut a few feet of 1/8 x 1/4dado in Baltic birch so far, but cuts are crisp and bit shows no wear. Ill be checking Foos first for future bit orders. Nice to see a US manufacturer offer such quality and value.

Cuts beautifully. Very happy with my purchase. Great for getting between letters routed on wooden signs I make.

This bit is exactly what they say it is. I work with wood Moulder knives; this is a good bit and has a unique design.

Nice router bit but be aware the cutting diameter is not exactly 1/8 inch. The slot it cuts is oversized by 1/128, not much but if you need to be precise this wont work for you!

These bits do well but pay attention to the measurements. I use these for my CNC and while they can carve well, any depth past 1/2 inch is sketchy. With wood at big box stores mostly sold at 3/4” thick, these would not be ideal for through cuts because the cutting surface just isn’t long enough. I did not mark these down a star for it because they do work, just not the best for what I want it to do.

Just what I needed. Arrived in good time and in good condition.

They are sharp and cut nice, but I wish they were longer. Why you ask? Because I use a die grinder with a guide on the threads. I have to put the bit pretty far out to cut plastic with it at the factory.

bad durability

Not up to my sharpness expectations.

It took 2 weeks from order to delivery, but Im very satisfied with everything else. I ordered the 3/16 bit. I used it to make some 3/4 + deep dados. I was cutting soft wood and it was effortless. I cut about 1/4 deep per pass: its bad practice to cut too much in one pass. They didnt have a 3/16 at the local hardware store and the other 3/16 bits offered here on Amazon either didnt go deep enough or they were HSS instead of carbide like this one. Carbide bits are better.
