Best used for: Standard milling, dadoing, and boring. Cutting Diameter: 5/16 Cutting Height: 1 Shank Diameter: 1/2 Overall Length: 3 Flutes: 3 Up-cut endmills direct woodchips up and away from the milling area leaving an unobstructed path for the endmill. Bit breakage is less likely. Up cut end mills are the best choice for most standard milling applications. The up cut direction can leave behind a minimally rough top surface edge. Highlights: - For standard CNC milling and routing where material removal and efficiency is required - Premium C3 micro-grain solid tungsten carbide for a high-performance industrial quality tool - For use on CNC, table mount and handheld routers - Polished to a mirror finish from a solid carbide rod for precision & accuracy - 3 flute design for more efficient performance on hardwoods and non-ferrous alloys Item Includes: 1 CNC Endmill Router Bit Up cut endmills are great for all standard milling and material removal. These bits pull the wood chips up and away from the tool path which helps prevent tool breakage and extends the life of the bit. If a particular finish is required for your project, use a down cut or compression cut end mill for the final pass.
