SpeTool Down Cut Spiral Router Bit 1/16 inch Cutting Diameter with 1/4 inch Shank End Mill for Woodwork CNC Machine Tools

I used this bit to cut into 3/16 thick mahogany veneer for maple inlays. The down-cut spiral bit made nice clean cuts. I havent used it enough to rate its durability or longevity, but carbide bits typically hold up well.

I have used this bit on several jobs so far and if has worked as well as a higher priced bit that I recently dropped and broke. This bit is about 14 dollars less expensive and does a great job, although the feed rate is not as fast as the other bit.

Great cutter for my CNC projects.

love the material and excellent customer service! these are great! and for a good price! I use them a lot for my small cnc projects, my personal fav is the compressions bits! wow! there amazing and strong!

I like to cut signs (and intricate pieces of signs) with my Shaper Origin, and this bit can get into sharp corners much more effectively than other bits (like the 1/8th or 1/4 inch). I’ve started working with 2.7mm plywood, and this bit can easily cut it in one pass, and as it’s a down cut bit, it seems to minimize the sanding needed on the top edge (which is a big deal for me). The bit is a little pricey, but this far I’d say “Worth every penny!”

I love how detailed this bit helps you be able to get when doing detailed wood projects.

Wouldn’t recommend, product snapped within first use of it. Have settings on my CNC to have the machine cut 1/16 of an inch each pass and when it got half way through a 7/32” thick cut through; it snapped. The snapped end looked very granular too so doesn’t seem to be made from a good quality mix of metals, or not annealed properly.

Ive used this bit in my CNC machine to make a few wood (pine) signs. The bit worked well. Smooth cuts with little fuzz.

Nothing…… it broke within 5 minutes

Use the SpeTools feeds and speeds chart for the right cut. Due to how small it is, this bit is delicate. This will cut some very nice details.
