SpeTool 1/16 inch Cuting Diameter Spiral UP Cut Router Bit with 1/4 inch Shank 2 Flute Plunge CNC End Mill

Worked very well for hand routing w my trim router.

Used for finishing passes. Just go slow and you won’t have any problems

Broke after 30 minutes of use

It took almost 3 weeks to get here, but I have it now. However, since it was 7:39p when it arrived, I wont be using it until tomorrow. This will be used in a Shaper Origin. Hope I dont break it! Solid carbide so should hold up well.

Some of the SpeTool bits are great and others are horrible. The 1/16th is one of the more horrible bits in my experience.

Its small and cuts cleanly. I cut slots in roasted maple guitar tops, 1/4-inch thick tops, and the slots are perfectly routed by this bit. Its long enough to cut through the thickness, and does the job easily. Highly recommended.

I am a first time CNC user. I just bought my first one this last week and needed a smaller bit for more fine detail I was doing on a project. Knowing absolutely nothing about bits or the like, I ordered this one to give it a try. It was EXACTLY what I needed. I was cutting out a shape from 1/4” Rustic Walnut and this gave me perfect detail. I was even surprised that it cut BETTER THAN my new bits that came with my machine. The cut was so smooth and just glided right along the workpiece. I definitely would recommend, and I have already purchased other size bits!

I am making wood projects that have more detail in them and this is able to get in there and make quick work of it.

Snapped in half cutting a 1:16th tool path at 175 mm/min which is below Rex speeds/feeds will not buy this brand again

Very sharp. So far so good. I use these in my CNC in soft woods and keep the speeds and feeds pretty low.
