1/4″ Up-Cut Spiral Bit *AstraHP Coated*

A must have in any shop, the versatile 1/4″ spiral up-cut CNC Router bit can be used in any CNC, hand held router or router table. Astra Coated Solid Carbide Tip diameter: 1/4″ Shank Diameter: 1/4″ Length of cut: 1″ Tool Size: 1/4″ x 2-1/2″ Made In USA These tools are coated with a proprietary high performance *Astra coating* that allows higher speed & feed rates as well as 2x the extended tool life & increased lubricity in abrasive material Jonathan's Hot Take: Up-cut spiral bits are my most used bits when I'm trying to clear chips or get a clean edge on the side of the stock furthest from my tool. These bits provide the HIGHEST VALUE because the Astra Coating makes them last at least 2-4x longer than uncoated bits. This is one of those times that spending a little more upfront saves you a lot of money down the line. Spiral bits perform 100x better and 100x longer than straight bits. I recommend staying away from straight bits in general, because they dull so much faster
