SpeTool Extra Long Spiral Router Bit Down Cut 1/8 inch Cutting Diameter, 1/4 inch Shank 3 inch OVL HRC55 Solid Carbide End Mill for Wood Cut Carving Engrave

This bit was clean cutting and long enough for my 3/4” thick material (wood) on my XCarve!

Cuts nice and clean

No issues with this bit whatsoever at first. I use it on my X-Carve and it works perfect! The bad part that it became dull in about a month or so. Does not have a long life. If you buy just keep that in mind.

Made the mistake of ordering the regular length first. This one is definitely needed for cnc machines.

Really like the length and reach however cutting even at slow feeds and shallow doc seemed to much. But just seems dull compared to other brands I’ve used.

Never buy any bits or tools made in mainland china. I realize the price is hard to pass up… But they are never worth the price a dog they break or they don’t work in the first place. For some reason China cannot even make a machine screw to tightly turn into a machine nut

Broke in first 4 min .1 DOC 45 in/min speed. I bought 2 because they were same day shipping and needed them ASAP and I was afraid one would break. Ran the second bit at .09 ODC and 40 in/min and it worked fine.

I ran this bit on my cnc machine at 60 inches per minute, pass depth of 0.1 inch spindle speed at 10,000 and carving oak 1/2 plywood it broke within a couple minutes. I didnt expect that.

The end mill has a great price point and high quality.

I use these a lot. They work great but with a long small diameter cutter like this it is not too difficult to break them. These are great quality and value.
