1/16" Long-Cut Down-Cut Spiral Bit — Extra Reach for Deeper Detail

Standard-length micro bits run out of cut depth fast. This 1/16" down-cut spiral gives you extra length of cut for deeper detail passes, while still pulling chips downward for a clean, splinter-free top surface.

Solid carbide construction holds its edge through the slow, careful passes fine detail work demands.
