    Straight and Spiral Router Bits for Aluminum

    Also known as O-flute bits, the flutes on these bits are open and rounded for efficient chip removal when cutting aluminum. This also reduces heat to prevent melting or warping. Use these bits to create square slots, pockets, and edges. They are plunge cutting, letting you cut directly into the workpiece from above. They do not have a pilot, so guide your router along a straight edge when hand routing to make accurate cuts.

    Spiral Flute

    Zirconium-nitride (ZrN) coated carbide bits have a smoother cutting edge than uncoated bits, so they generate less friction when cutting. This helps keep temperatures down when cutting at high speeds, minimizing material buildup and extending the life of the bit. Carbide bits have a longer life and faster cutting speeds than high-speed steel bits. Their extreme hardness makes them brittle, so they’re not recommended for use with hand tools. A highly rigid setup, such as a CNC machine, is necessary to keep bits from breaking.

    Straight Flutes—Bits with straight flutes are for general purpose use. They quickly remove material, leaving a rough finish.
    Ball Bearing—Ball-bearing pilots guide the bit for accurate cuts and produce less friction than solid pilots for smoother operation.
    Pilot Location—Pilot location describes the position of the pilot when the bit is used for hand routing. The pilot location is reversed when using the bit with a router table.

    Router Bits for Composites

    The sharp cutting edges and flute shapes of these tools are specifically designed to cut through tough composite materials, such as carbon fiber and fiberglass, with minimal resistance. This means less strain on your router and more control when cutting, leading to smooth cuts. They're made of solid carbide for longer tool life and faster cutting speeds than high-speed steel.

    Spiral Router Bits for Steel and Stainless Steel

    The aluminum-titanium-nitride (AlTiN) coating on these bits resists heat and wear when cutting steel and stainless steel. They have a square cut style for creating slots, pockets, and edges. They're made of solid carbide for longer tool life and faster cutting speeds than high-speed steel. Their extreme hardness means they are brittle, so a highly rigid setup, such as a CNC machine, is necessary to prevent the bit from breaking. With spiral flutes, they leave a smoother finish than straight-flute bits and are good for making plunge cuts. The flutes lift chips up from the workpiece for applications that require a smooth finish on the bottom edge of the cut. Securely clamp your material before routing to prevent lifting. Bits with more flutes produce a smoother finish.

    Straight and Spiral Router Bits for Foam

    The cutting edges of these bits have a shallow angle to carve foam quickly and accurately. With a square cut style, they create slots, pockets, and edges. These bits are good for plunge cutting, letting you cut directly into the workpiece from above. They do not have a pilot, so guide your router along a straight edge when hand routing to make accurate cuts.

    For smooth contour carving in wood, plastic, and aluminum, these bits have a ball-nose design. All are made of solid carbide for a long tool life and fast cutting speeds. The extreme hardness of carbide bits means they are brittle, so they're not recommended for use with hand tools. A highly rigid setup, such as a CNC machine, is necessary to prevent the bit from breaking. The spiral flutes pull chips up from the workpiece while making cuts; securely clamp your material before routing to prevent lifting.

    Diamond-Coated Router Bits for Composites

    With a diamond coating, these bits resist wear when used on abrasive materials, making them last about 50 times longer than uncoated bits. Their sharp cutting edges and flute shapes are specifically designed to cut through tough materials such as composites with minimal resistance. This means less strain on your router and more control when cutting, leading to a smooth cut. Bits are made of solid carbide for longer tool life and faster cutting speeds than high-speed steel.

    Square Cut Style—Use bits with a square cut style to cut slots, pockets, and edges.
    Plunge Cut—Plunge-cutting bits let you cut directly into the workpiece from above. Other bits are best for operations where the peripheral teeth do most of the work such as trimming, contouring, and finishing.
    Diamond-Pattern Flutes—Diamond-pattern flutes' small, staggered teeth aggressively cut, yet leave a smooth finish.
