FS Tools CNC Compression Bit

DESIGN:

• Superior surface finish is produced by the 2 or 3 precision ground cutting edges

• Good chipflow and lower heat retention is provided by the 3 flute design

• Fast feed rates are possible due to the high performance tool geometry

• Submicron, corrosion resistant, extended life carbide provides increased durability and resistance to resin build-up

• 30º Helix design with plunging capability

APPLICATION:

• For exceptionally smooth finishing cuts

• Superior finish on hardwoods, softwoods, laminated panels, MDF, chipboard, plywood and solid surface materials

• 3 flute design allows for two cutting edges to be engaged at all times, providing greater stability and reducing run-out

• Increased number of bite marks per inch reduces chip size and provides a smooth finish on the core of plywood and particleboards, especially important when edge-banding without pre-miling operations

• Eliminates chipping, fuzzing and tear-out when the end of the upcut/downcut cutting edges are further than 1/16" from the top and bottom faces of the board

• Use a “Mortise” upcut length of 0.188" when cutting rebates, dados or pockets

• If part movement is a concern, use a “Mortise” Upcut Length of 0.188"

• When possible select a router bit with a longer upcut length to improve chip ejection from the cutting path

• For improved dust extraction use with an Aerotech (page FC21)
