Why Choose Spiral Router Bits Instead of Straight Bits?
- Spiral router bits combine a shearing action with an augering action for chip clearance. This dual action not only produces a clean and accurate cut but also efficiently clears chips from the cut area, enhancing the overall cutting experience.
What is Compression (Up-Cut & Down-Cut) Bits?
ZahyoX Compression Spiral Bit is the ultimate high-performance straight bit, specially designed to eliminate chipping on both sides of the workpiece. This makes it ideal for pattern routing on double-sided panels, edgework, mortises, and more.
What is nACo Coating?
nACo, or nano-composite coating, is a micro-thin ceramic coating applied to cutting tools. Zahyox X-Series bits feature a nACo coating with extreme hardness and heat resistance. With a blue-tinted coloring, nACo enhances their performance and durability in router tooling.
- Sharpness Retention: Maintains cutting edges razor-sharp for precise and clean cuts.
- Reduced Friction: Features an extremely low friction coefficient of 0.25, minimizing tool wear and facilitating smoother operations.
- Heat Resistance: Can withstand up to 900°F, protecting tools from heat damage during intense cutting tasks.
- Enhanced Durability: Delivers a hardness of 3800 HV, which increases resistance to wear and extends 3 times longer tool life.
Why Choose ZahyoX 1/2 inch Shank Spiral Router Bits?
- Geometry Specs: 1/2" Cutting Diameter, 1/2" Shank, 1-1/4" Cutting Length, 3" Overall Length, 2 Flutes, Compression Rotation, Nano Coated.
- Application: Fine finish, chip-free routing in double-sided veneers and laminates.
- The combination of up and down shear flutes eliminates chipping on both sides of double-sided veneers or laminated materials for a fine finish.
- Cuts all composition materials, plywoods, hardwoods, and softwoods.
- Use on CNC and other automatic routers as well as table-mounted portable routers.
- SScottRated 5 out of 5 starsBeautiful And Sharp
This may be most solid and well made bit I have. I used it to cut box joints in hardwood and this 1/2 inch diameter bit was easier to use than a couple of other brands of 1/4 spiral up cut bits I have. It produces nice big shavings but with good control and no tear out. Recommended.
- MMMarc M. E.Rated 5 out of 5 starsDecent price for a good product.
After 50 years of woodworking, I continue to be amazed by the abundance of excellent new tools that simply weren't around in my early days. This bit is hands down the sharpest I've ever used. While I initially felt the price was steep, it's absolutely worth it for the quality you get. Even after rigorous and prolonged use, it maintains its sharpness. I'm thoroughly impressed and would definitely purchase it again.
- TFTimothy F.Rated 5 out of 5 starsgreat carbide end mill!
This end mill looks quite impressive. The flutes are exceptionally sharp, and the shank has a smooth, polished surface. I've only tested it on HDPE so far. Cutting this type of plastic demands a highly sharp bit, and this tool performed fantastically—effortlessly, I might add. Quality carbide tools don't come cheap, so I find the asking price quite reasonable. Plus, it comes in a reusable plastic case to protect the cutting edges.
