SOLID CARBIDE SPIRALS
UP/DOWN CUT SPIRAL BITS
Compression Bits give you the best of both worlds. The part of the spiral bit closest to the tip has a
3/8" upcut and the part closest to the router is downcut. It compresses the chips to the center of the
bit.
This is especially good for plywood, laminates, and MDF when you need the top and bottom edges
clean. Choosing the right length of bit is important to match the thickness of material you are cutting,
so both ends of the bit have room to work.
The "M" denotes that the bit has a mortise cut, which provides a 1/4" upcut before the downcut
begins. This allows the cutter to create a shallower groove/dado cut for denser or easily chipped
material.
"HC" denotes a super hard Carbide, which provides much longer life when used on laminates and
melamine. Speeds & feed rates must be reduced when using these bits due to the brittleness of the
harder carbide.
"K" refers to our nano coating technology which increases life and
allows for increased feed rates on high production applications.

ROUGHING SPIRAL BITS
(Hoggers) Up Cut or Down Cut Solid Carbide - Three Flute
Roughing Spiral bits are the go to for material removal. They are known as the "hoggers". The edges
have serrations milled into them to break up the chips into smaller pieces and really move some
material fast when cutting.

* Mortise Style - These bits have a short 1/4" up-cut end flute. This allows down shear
cutting action to the top edge during shallow cuts.
• Super Hard Carbide versions for use on melamine and for extra life.
† Nano coating for increased feed rates.

Slow Spiral bits have less of a twist than the full spirals, which makes
them ideal for use on hardwoods, solid surface, and hard plastics.
