Accupro 71177430 Upcut Spiral Router Bit 2mm Solid Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 71177430 is a single-edge upcut spiral router bit designed for precision cutting in plastic materials. Built from solid carbide with a bright uncoated finish, this bit delivers clean chip evacuation and accurate cuts in demanding routing applications. It features a 2 mm cutter diameter, a 10 mm length of cut, and a 3 mm shank diameter. The 21-degree helix angle and right-hand cutting direction work together to pull chips up and away from the workpiece, reducing heat buildup and improving cut quality. This bit is suited for CNC routing operations where tight tolerances and clean edges are required.

This router bit is intended for use in CNC routing machines and high-speed spindles where a 3 mm shank collet is available. It is optimized for cutting plastic substrates, including acrylic, HDPE, and similar materials, in both production shop and prototyping environments. The small cutter diameter makes it well suited for fine detail work, narrow slot cutting, and intricate profile routing where larger tooling cannot reach. Machinists and CNC operators working in fabrication, signage, and industrial manufacturing will find this bit appropriate for light-duty, high-precision passes.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in plastic cutting
• Upcut flute geometry evacuates chips away from the cut zone
• 21-degree helix angle balances cutting efficiency with edge stability
• Bright uncoated finish suitable for non-ferrous and plastic materials
• Right-hand cutting direction compatible with standard CNC spindle rotation
• Compact 2 mm diameter enables fine detail and narrow slot work

Compatibility

Designed for use in CNC routers and high-speed spindles equipped with a 3 mm collet. Optimized for routing plastic materials as specified by the manufacturer.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified CNC operator or machinist. Power down and lock out the spindle before inserting or removing the bit. Ensure the shank is fully seated and properly torqued in a clean, undamaged 3 mm collet before operation. Follow machine manufacturer guidelines for feed rate and spindle speed when routing plastic to avoid chip welding or bit deflection.
