CMT 2 Flute Compression Router Bit w/DLCS Chrome Coating 3/8" SH, 3/8" D, 1-1/8" CL

Compression spiral bits eliminate chipping on both sides of double-sided veneers or laminated materials for the finest finish. These tools combine up shear and down shear flutes to prevent tear-out on either side of the material. This solid carbide router bit with DLCS Chrome Coating is used for efficient contour cutting, end trimming, and panel sizing on solid wood, wood composites, plastic materials, and laminates at high feed speeds.

DLCS is a modified, diamond-like carbon coating with enhanced load bearing capacity. A hard, durable metal-based layer (chromium nitride) provides a higher hardness surface and increases the resilience of the superposed carbon coating. Coating prevents high heat, which is detrimental to cutting tool performance. Provides 3X longer life than uncoated tools!

This bit can be used on machining centers, point-to-point boring machines, CNC routers, and hand-held routers equipped with chucks or adaptors.
