Amana Tool 45747 Carbide V-Groove 90 Deg. Folding Tool for Composite Material Panels (TCM)

The composite building materials are commonly used in various exterior and interior applications such as office buildings, hospitals, convention centers, airports, and hotels. One popular method of working with these materials is to create v-shaped grooves using a carbide cutting tip that is brazed to a steel shank. This allows for the removal of the aluminum cover and a portion of the polyethylene core, making it easier to fold or crease the remaining material by hand.

To ensure a longer tool life, a special amana-grade carbide is used for the cutting tip. This type of carbide outperforms carbide tipped tooling, making it a reliable choice for routing grooves in composite materials like TCM, ccm, and ACM.

The specific router bit with the code #45747 is designed with a diameter of 1/2 inch, an angle of 90°, and a cutting height of 3/8 inch. The shank diameter is also 1/2 inch, and the overall length of the bit is 2-3/8 inches. It is a ZRN coated V-Groove type bit, and its maximum RPM is 28,000. The bit has two flutes and a tip width of 0.090 inch. The angle of the v-groove is 45°, and it is capable of folding composite material panels like TCM, ccm, and ACM.

This particular router bit is proudly made in the USA, and its high-quality construction ensures durability and reliability in cutting grooves in composite materials.
