MakerMade 5-Pack Up Cut, Down Cut Compression, V-groove and Straight Cut 100% Carbide - 1/4 inch, Router Bit Set for All Types of Routers Including CNC

Maker Made CNCs solid carbide router bits are designed to handle a variety of materials with ease. The 3 pack includes 1 down cut, 1 up cut, 1 compression bit, 1 V-Groove engraving bit, and 1 straight cut. All of which are perfect for the Maslow CNC and other CNC machines. - - - - Downcut Spiral Bits are best used for thinner materials, or when a high-quality cut finish is required on the top surface of cut parts. The trade-off for this cleaner cut is that waste material (sawdust, etc) is pushed down into the machine bed rather than being lifted out, the way it is with an upcut spiral. - - - - - Upcut Spiral Bits pull chips (and your material) up and away from the table (with upcut, the airplane propeller spins the correct direction). They are great at clearing out chips from your cuts to avoid overheating your bits and therefore excel at making deeper cuts. Because of the upcut direction of the flutes, the tradeoff is that these bits have a tendency to splinter the top surface of sheet goods like plywood and melamine coated particle board. You also need to be very sure that your material is securely held down to the table so the bit doesn’t lift it while cutting. - - - - - Compression Bits are a combination of up- and downcut bits, which you can see in the complex fluting of the bit. These specialized bits simultaneously pull out chips and debris, while leaving a clean cut surface on both sides of your work material. In this sense, they carry the best of both worlds. Compression bits are great for melamine and projects were both sides of the cut material need a clean finish. - - - - V-Groove Bits are a specialty bit named for their unique tip shape and are typically used for decorative cutting purposes. The sharp, pointed channel they produce is ideal for lettering, engraving, sign-making, or similar project types. V-grooves come in various angles to fit the specific look you’re going for in a given cut. - - - - -
