Whiteside Router Bits 1541 V-Groove 60-Degree 1/4-Inch Cutting Diameter and 7/32-Inch Point Length

Super tool. Very sharp!!! Makes great wood inlays.

It arrived on time. This was important as I had a deadline to meet. It did the job I needed and I will use and order again as soon as I wear this bit out. Cost-wise these are cheap enough, I will not spend time trying to sharpen them.

I was having a terrible time trying to do inlays in walnut/maple with my Whiteside 1502, all the male carves were being torn up. I ordered the 1542 and ran the same toolpaths and all I can say is WOW! I ran at 18K RPM and a feedrate of 80IPM and my inlays are perfect. This bit has 3 flutes, so I am guessing that is the difference. You will not regret adding this bit to your inventory if you do inlays.

great value and quality

I have a CNC router and need durable, accurate bits. Whiteside does just rhat!!!

Im giving this a five star review even though the product picture is completely wrong. I have used this product for a couple of years and new what I was buying. It is actually a three flute 1/4dia 60° router bit. Very sharp and lasts longer than any bit that I have ever used, and as a sign making business cutting red oak 8 hrs a day, we have used a lot of bits.

Quality bit! Sharp is an understatement. Be careful removing the cover from the bit or ull see just how sharp. Have run this bit for over 20 hrs now and still as sharp as it was from the package.

Used this bit to replace a 60 degree v-bit that kept breaking off the tip. It ran flawlessly through 12-4x8 sheets of fir plywood at 1/16 deep. Afterwords examined the tip and cutting edge with a jewelers loupe and found it was almost as new. Highly recommend this for engraving and projects were a v-groove bit will break.

I don’t think that this bit is any better than the Foos 60 degree bit. The Foos has a sharper point and is comparable in price.
