Description of Bosch 86026M Carbide Compression Bit, with 2 Flutes
Ideal for general use with difficult-to-route materials. Specific bits to route hard plastics, double-sided plywood, and melamine. Fast feed rates and optimum edge finish on both sides of laminated material. Solid carbide for durability. Recommended for CNC use.
This carbide router bit has exceeded my expectations in terms of performance and durability. The compression design creates smooth and clean cuts, perfect for woodworking projects. The sturdy carbide material ensures a longer lifespan compared to other router bits. However, the price point may be considered high for some consumers. Overall, I highly recommend this product for its excellent quality and efficiency in the Industrial and Scientific field.
Pros
Sharp and durable carbide material
Cons
Not as versatile as other router bits on the market
Worked great on my CNC for cutting 1/4" plywood - no sanding the edges more! Will buy again but Revain's price has almost doubled since I bought it so I'll wait and pump.
Pros
Specialty cutter for cutting hard plastic, double sided plywood and melamine
You better be a pro when using any of these. The recoil will most likely rip the cutter or workpiece right out of your hand and possibly into your throat. This is my first experience with a twist drill and if you think about it, the upward spiral should be orders of magnitude safer. If I ever try to use a downward cutting helix again, it will be on a router table with a mechanical limit and work feed.
