Review on Amana Carbide Spiral Plunge Down Cut Cutting Tools for Router Bits by Andrew Cramer

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Less than 1/2x the bit, broke within 2 hours with moderate use

For my X-Carve CNC I used Yonico 1/8" downcut bits, to cut 1/2 " MDF. I used another Amana bit for a recent project and it worked fine so I bought this bit. Bad move. This bit broke in less than 2 hours of use at reasonable speed. I can't believe a beat that costs half as much can beat this beat so much. Very bad. I don't think I will buy Amana beats again.

Pros
  • (D) 1/8" diameter
Cons
  • Not sure
