Review on πŸ”ͺ Enhance Precision with Freud Double Flute Straight 04 118 Router Bit by Jerardo Phi

Revainrating 1 out of 5

I guess they don't make them like they used to

, I have several Freud table saws, miter saws and radial saws. Never had a problem. So it was nice to get this bit for a small project involving 3 1/2" long, 7/16" deep slots in maple. Boy was I wrong. This beat has to be the worst beat ever made. The shaft was ridiculously long and I had to set up a router, which I've never had to do before. Then, after several hands-on attempts on maple and pine, the cutter flatly refused to cut further. I thought this thing had a carbide tip but I didn't say it on the box and I don't see it now. So I guess it's not. I feel sick. Unless you're turning the weakest piece of wood. I would stay away from this nozzle. And I tend to never buy a Freud nozzle again. I hope this review helps you more than this one helped me a little.
