Frequently Asked Questions

A helical bit that lifts chips upward, ideal for deep plunges and fast chip evacuation.

Use up-cut for deep pockets and efficient chip removal; choose down-cut when you need a splinter-free top face.

Some top-side splintering can occur; minimize it with a backer board or shallow first pass.

Excessive RPM or slow feed causes heat; sharpen or clean the bit and speed up the feed.

Clear chips with strong dust extraction or pause to vacuum; up-cut flutes already help eject debris.

Compression bits give splinter-free faces on both sides; up-cut is faster but may fray the top veneer.

Extra flutes can improve finish but require slower feed per tooth; 2-flute is a good all-round choice.

Too-deep cuts or slow chip evacuation overheat the small shank—use shallower passes and higher feed.

They’re fine if feed direction is correct and stock is clamped; expect more chip spray than in a table.

Use sharp bits, minimize tool overhang, and match feed to RPM to keep chip load steady.

This Bit Does Excellent Work

It's small and cuts cleanly. I cut slots in roasted maple guitar tops, 1/4-inch thick tops, and the slots are perfectly routed by this bit. It's long enough to cut through the thickness, and does the job easily. Highly recommended.

Excellent small diameter bit.

Very sharp. So far so good. I use these in my CNC in soft woods and keep the speeds and feeds pretty low.

Couldnfind this size in stores.

Bought for my husband who couldnt find this size in stores. Great price. Were ordering another one because he feels for the consistent use of he uses it for, it wont last. Great quality and does the job he needs it to do for his woodworking projects.

good for cutting a saddle slot

I was a little concerned with reading reviews where the bit was already gribulated when the buyer received the bit. I know with Amazon, you can just send it back for a replacement so that's not a big deal.

The bit was nice and sharp. I use it to cut saddle slots for custom built guitars.
see how long it will last
for anybody buying 1/16", I would suggest you buy two in case one borks on you.
