Description of πͺ BOSCH 85285 Carbide 1 Flute Flush: Superior Cutting Performance and Precision
For trimming high-pressure laminates flush to a substrate. Solid pilot wipes clean - no ball bearing seizure from adhesives. Classic design for high production countertop and fixture production. Solid Carbide for long life in production applications.
Using this bit, our team found that it provided consistent and precise cuts with ease. The carbide material is incredibly durable and held up well under heavy use. The single flute design allowed for efficient chip removal. However, the one downside was that it did leave some fuzziness on the edge of the cut. Overall, we highly recommend this bit for any flush cutting needs.
Pros
Precise and clean cuts due to the carbide material and one flute design.
Cons
Not suitable for materials harder than steel, as the single flute may cause chattering and poor surface finish.
"burned" my edge. moved as fast as he could. I should of course have used a bearing, but I've read that it's designed for this type of cutting as well. It's partly my fault for not using stock.
Nothing to say but it worked great as advertised. I applied a small amount of household oil to my fingertip, making sure it was well lubricated, then proceeded at a normal pace. Don't hold the edge without moving or it will burn. Clean the oil with a small amount of solvent and tap the edge lightly with a file to smooth it out.
