CNC V-Bits are single flute bits with one cutting edge. They are designed to be most efficient in fine detail engraving in hardwood, aluminum, brass, copper, etc. Commonly used in the engraving industry, they are available in different sizes and lengths. SpeTool offers SPE-X Coated versions (like the W06008, W06009, and W06010) of the most popular v-bits for CNC and handheld routers.
V-groove bits have 2 or 4 flutes, more for engraving letters, signs, engravings, etc. on wood. V-grooves range from solid carbide router bits (like the W06006 and W06007) to SpeTool carbide insert tools (like the W06001 and W06002). They are available in several angles, cutting diameters, and shank sizes, making them ideal for most CNC machines.

The installation was (relatively) easy. Watched several YouTube videos on how to do it. Old cutter head was not easy to remove. I have only used it for two weekends and love this cutter head. Smooth boards, way less noise and way less bogging down/blowing the breaker when taking passes above 1/16.
I wanted to wait until my planer was out of warranty to replace the cutter head and really wish I hadn't. Overall a great purchase and experience.
My first use was a new custom-built mahogany entry door with an interior profile too proud for door hardware installation. I simply set up the sled to run on the door styles and reduced the profile accordingly.
The top rail of the door was too short to accomplish the routing with the standard setup. I fabricated two pieces of 1/8" aluminum plate to cantilever the router base to extend the reach of the router by 6" to get the job done.
Everything I thought it could be and more. Game changer for sure. I use flush cutting bits all the time and this exceeded my expectations. $100 shipped is a steal.
