The O flute bit is a carbide spiral flute with a unique mirror finish, resulting in high-quality surface finishes, clean professional cuts, and prolonged tool life.
How does it compare with other flute bits?
The O flute bit was explicitly manufactured for CNC Router machines for use in a variety of applications. Over the years, due to continuous improvement in its design and geometry, these router bits became the sign-making industry’s favorite tool, easily out shadowing its competition. Compared to other flute styles, the cuts are cleaner, plunges are deeper and chips are easily directed up or down, depending on the type of spiral you choose. If you work primarily with plastic or aluminum, you’ll be happy to learn that heat is dispersed more easily with the O flute bit and stops welding back.
What material does it cut with?
Although it’s most commonly used with plastic and aluminum, you can use the O flute bit on a variety of materials, such as acrylic, nylon, foam board, laminate, solid surfaces, and wood. SpeTooloffers several classic O-Flute bits, available in 1/4 and 1/8 inch cut diameters, and their high quality has won praise from customers and is definitely worth the price. https://spetools.com/collections/o-flute

I’ve been very happy with this SpeTool 60° V-groove bit. I use it for CNC carving on wood signs and it cuts very clean, crisp lines—great for lettering and detail work. The carbide tip holds up well and stays sharp after multiple projects. For the price, it’s a solid bit and I would definitely buy it again.
They are perfect came fast delivery and packaged unbelievably well and applys enough pressure and hold everything together definitely going to speed up the process and save on the amount of clamps I was currently using with scrap wood.
I Have a problem with the lead **** when raising the platform with a router mounted on the unit: the platform jams on the side opposite of the adjustment mechanism creating a problem with how the router blade contacts the workpiece.
