Amana Tool 46102-K Spiral Plunge 1/4 Dia

Spiral-flute bits offer a cutting technique that combines shearing and auguring actions. This unique combination results in a clean and precise cut, while also effectively clearing chips from the work area. The 'Up-cut' style of these bits pulls chips from the bottom up, allowing for deeper penetration with less strain on the tool. They are especially suitable for Mortising applications.

These spiral-flute bits feature a special carbide grade and increased clearance geometry, along with razor-sharp cutting edges and polished flutes. As a result, they provide a superior finish and have a longer tool life, particularly when used with abrasive materials. They are ideal for use in production settings and are excellent for creating grooves and dado cuts in particleboard, plywood, and laminate. While primarily intended for use with CNC machines and other automatic routers, they can also be used with handheld and table-mounted portable routers.

Specifically, the #46102-K spiral-flute bit has an up-cut direction, a 1/4" diameter (D), a cutting height (B) of 3/4", a 1/4" shank diameter (D), and an overall length (L) of 2-1/2". It features 2 flutes and is coated with the spektra extreme tool life coating. This bit is designed for spiral plunging and is suitable for various applications, particularly when an up-cutting action is needed.
