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 Down-Cut Bits?
Down-cut: This premium solid carbide bit cuts dadoes with crisp, clean edges on both sides of the dado. The downward spiral forces the chips down into the groove, eliminating the tendency for wood fibers to chip out the face. Also works great for cutouts and edgework.
Application:
- Grooves and dadoes in single-sided veneers and laminates.
Zahyox's solid carbide down spiral bit is ideal for smooth, chip-free routing where chip removal is not a problem. - Cuts all composition materials, plywoods, hardwoods, and softwoods.
- Use on CNC and other automatic routers as well as table-mounted portable routers.

- GFGeorge F.Rated 5 out of 5 starsSo sharp and solid
This bit is seriously nice—superbly machined and snugly housed in its plastic container. The machining is spot-on, the shaft feels smooth, and those flutes sharp as they come. A bit this size should tear through just about anything!
- JMJames M.Rated 5 out of 5 starseffortless chip removal
This bit is perhaps the most finely ground I've come across. Even the root sections are nearly polished, enhancing chip clearance significantly, despite initial concerns about wood chips. Managing chip removal during deep cuts was effortless. The finish is also impressive
- JMJoseph M.Rated 5 out of 5 starsvery well made
The solid carbide bit is notably heavier compared to steel or carbide-tipped ones. Its exceptionally hard and polished shank can pose challenges when securing it in a tool. However, with a clean collet and shank, I encountered no issues using it in either a router or a mill.
Given its solid carbide composition and its potential for use on 'soft metals,' I was intrigued by its performance in milling aluminum. It performed admirably. The unique side cut pattern, combined with the wood-focused geometry at the bit's end, imparted a subtly textured finish unlike other end mills—still highly satisfactory.
I also find this bit excels in wood applications, performing impressively in solid wood or plywood. Its construction is excellent, offering great value for its price.
