3/16" x 2-1/2" Spektra Extreme Tool Life Coated Compression Spiral Bit, 2-Flute, 3/16" Shank

Special unique carbide for longer lifetime in abrasive material. Designed for CNC applications requiring high feed rates and a clean finish. Particularly suitable for double-sided melamine or laminated material. Flawless compression cuts. 1" of cutting height

Our Spektra bits feature a nACo nanocomposite coating with an extreme nanohardness and heat resistance. With a brilliant distinctively-tinted coloring nACo provides additional improvements in four critical aspects of router tooling.

• nACo coating is a micro-thin ceramic coating which enables the tool's cutting edge to retain crucial sharpness and lubricity. This provides longevity and produces cutting results of the highest quality.
• Coating prevents high heat and oxidation which is detrimental to cutting tool performance.
• Multi-colored hues, while attractive, will dissipate upon use and yet coating will remain fully effective.
• nACo offers approximately 4,500 Vickers for impressive solid hardness on cutting areas of the tool, for an increase up to 2.5 times compared to uncoated bits.

Excellent for cutting:
• CFRP
• Double sided melamine
• Laminate
• Laminated plywood
• Melamine particle board
• MDF
• Oriented strand board (OSB)*
• Particle board
• Softwood/hardwood
• Veneered plywood

Note: Blue based color dissipates immediately upon use. nACo nanocomposite coating will not wear off.

*Oriented Strand Board is an engineered wood particle board.
