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 have purchased a few items from Spetool and I have had a great experience every time. All the products I have purchased have performed well and the shipping is fast. Spetool is my number one source for CNC bits. Thank you all...
They seem to work well, have actually only used them once so far. there seemed to be a small bow in them on my project, (a 30x20 table top). Will see if this persists or was something to do with the lumber itself. overall, easy to use, easy to assemble and disassemble, definitely recommend a sacrificial board on the pin end, as they would likely leave a dent in your material otherwise.
Well made, quality build, works very well. Glued up a 2 inch thick solidwood bench top with 15 pieces of hardwood. Clamps kept everything flat. Very pleased. Used french cleats to hang clamps on wall. Only issue is worry about long pin falling out when soring them so i used think wire cables and caribenner clips to attach them. Great product!
