Ultra-Shear Compression Router Bits, 1/4" CD, 1/4" SH, 1-1/2" CL, USA Made Solid Carbide Spiral Bit for CNC, Hand & Table Routers (4 Pack)

SPECS - 1/4" Cut Diameter | 1/4" Shank | 1-1/2" Cut Length | 3-1/2" Overall Length | Compression Up & Down Cut | 2 Flute | Solid Carbide | Spiral Router Bit 4 Pack | Made in USA SOLID CARBIDE - This 1/4" compression router bit is made from solid carbide. We use state-of-the-art CNC grinding equipment, highest quality solid carbide blanks and ultra-fine grinding wheels to produce our American-made router bits. COMPRESSION SPIRAL GEOMETRY - Compression bits incorporate a 1/4" Up-Cut section followed by a Down-Cut section. This design allows users to plunge just past the Up-Cut section, ensuring a clean cut at the surface with efficient chip evacuation from deeper in the groove. COMPATIBILITY - Use the Ultra-Shear 1/4" Router Bits with hand routers, router tables or CNC machines. The compression bits are ideal for machining plywood, MDF, melamine veneer, and particle board. AMERICAN MADE QUALITY - Like all Ultra-Shear products, the Compression Router Bits are made right here in our Strongsville, Ohio, facility just south of Cleveland.

Compression bits are a versatile tool that combines the advantages of both Up-Cut and Down-Cut bits. Up-Cut bits efficiently evacuate shavings from grooves but can chip the top edge of cuts in plywood and other man-made materials. Conversely, Down-Cut bits leave a clean edge on the top surface but can cause blowout on the bottom in through cuts and struggle with chip evacuation. Compression bits address these issues by incorporating a 1/4" Up-Cut section followed by a Down-Cut section. This design allows users to plunge just past the Up-Cut section, ensuring a clean cut at the surface with efficient chip evacuation from deeper in the groove. This makes compression bits ideal for machining plywood, MDF, melamine veneer, and particle board.

Ultra-Shear 1/4" Solid Carbide Spiral Compression Router Bits come in various cutting lengths—1", 1-1/4", and 1-1/2"—with corresponding overall lengths of 2-1/2", 3", and 3-1/2". These router bits are suitable for use in CNC machines, template guide bushing work, handheld routers and table routers. Each compression bit comes in a 1/4" Shank & 1/4" Cut Diameter.

Woodpeckers uses state-of-the-art CNC grinding equipment, the highest quality solid carbide blanks and ultra-fine grinding wheels to produce American-made, extremely competitive router bits.
