Freud 12-156 3/4-Inch Diameter by 1-1/2-Inch Double Flute Straight Bit

by Freud

Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Freud's precision ground carbide bits have a grain size smaller than other grades, and titanium is added making them impervious to chemical attack. Promoting safer woodworking is the reason Freud made a commitment to develop anti-kickback router bits. Bits are computer balanced to insure vibration-free operation at speeds that are a safe margin above the typical 22,000 RPMs of most routers. Freud's philosophy is woodworkers should expect safety, not pay for it. Cut diameter 3/4-inch, cut length 1-1/2-inch, shank diameter 1/2-inch.

Product Description

An industry leader for over 50 years, the Freud name equals quality, precision and craftsmanship. Freud router bits feature Freud made TiCo Hi-Density Carbide for maximum cutting life. Each bit is individually balanced, giving a cut above the rest. Freud straight bits cut smoother than other bits because of the precise shear and hook angles. This bit will cut all composite materials, plywood, hardwood, and softwood. End of bit relief allows for fast plunging. Use on CNC and other automatic routers as well as hand-held and table-mounted portable routers.

This review is from: Freud 12-156 3/4-Inch Diameter by 1-1/2-Inch Double Flute Straight Bit (Tools & Home Improvement)

I do lots of channel routing which requires many passes to achieve the desired width. This Freud bit does the trick EVERY time! Rarely any kickback (and if there is any - it's normally caused by a stupid move on my part) and clean routs every time. I love it and the rest of my Freud bits. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
