Description
Up Cut:
Providing state-of-the-art results in flush trimming, this bit can perform in extremely tight corners. The bit uses a solid pilot against your project template while the up cut flutes pull chips up and away from the router, leaving a smooth bottom surface.
Down Cut:
Providing state-of-the-art results in flush trimming, this bit can perform in extremely tight corners. The bit uses a solid pilot against your project template while the down cut flutes expel chips down and away from the router, leaving a smooth top surface.
Compression:
These spiral bits offer state-of-the-art results in flush trimming. Made from solid carbide, each bit contains up cut and down cut flutes and is tipped with a double ball bearing guide. This flute design creates a compression cut that prevents fraying and splintering. Compression spirals will save you time and money on finishing your projects edges by reducing sanding time.
Materials: Natural woods, composites, hard plastics, thin aluminum
