    Router Bits for Thin Materials

    Make shallow incisions in fabric, leather, and rubber. Unlike other router bits, these bits do not spin or rotate; instead, the blade follows the motion of the CNC machine, behaving like a rudder as it cuts through material. These bits are plunge cutting, letting you cut directly into the workpiece from above.

    Drag Knife Cut Style

    Carbide bits have a small, sharp point for cutting precise, thin lines. They’re spring loaded to apply constant pressure to the tip, making them good for cutting thinner materials than steel bits.
