The 0.25-inch cutter diameter pairs with a 1.25-inch length of cut and a matching 1\/4-inch shank diameter, keeping the bit compatible with standard router collets. A 21-degree helix angle and single-edge geometry push chips downward, suppressing tearout on the top face of the workpiece. The bright, uncoated finish is well-suited to the low-friction demands of thermoplastic materials. Overall length is 3 inches. Weight is 0.07 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bit is designed for routing a wide range of thermoplastic and solid-surface sheet goods. Intended material applications include ABS, acrylic, HDPE, HIPS, PE, PET, POM, PS, polycarbonate, polypropylene, UHMW, and solid surfaces. Typical uses include profiling, slotting, and through-cutting operations on CNC routers and handheld router setups where a clean, chip-free top surface is the priority. The right-hand cutting direction is standard for conventional CNC and handheld routing operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDowncut flute geometry reduces tearout and holds the workpiece surface clean during the cut\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction provides hardness and wear resistance in abrasive plastic materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e21-degree helix angle optimized for chip evacuation in thermoplastics\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle-edge router style allows high chip loads per tooth\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish minimizes heat buildup and material adhesion in plastics\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-inch shank diameter fits standard router collets without an adapter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with standard 1\/4-inch router collets on CNC routers and handheld routing equipment.

Power down and lock out the router spindle before changing bits. Inspect the cutting edges for chipping or wear before each use, as carbide can micro-chip if the bit contacts hard inclusions or fasteners in composite panels. Follow the tool manufacturer and applicable OSHA guidelines for router speed settings and workholding when cutting sheet plastics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutter Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 21 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBit Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Downcut\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRouter Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single Edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePiloted\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.07 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112821\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ACCUPRO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 71177356\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51755028054322,"sku":"71177356","price":67.61,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f54d667a924506c66059dcb945d62042.jpg?v=1788950606","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-71177356-downcut-spiral-router-bit-1-4-in-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
