3/16" O-Flute Upcut Bit — Clean Cuts in Plastics, No Melting

Standard bits melt or gum up when they hit plastic. This 3/16" O-flute upcut bit's single-flute geometry clears chips fast and pulls them up and out, cutting clean through plastics, soft metals, and composites without heat buildup.

Solid carbide construction and a shear cutting action keep material from building up on the edge, staying long enough for deep cuts but short enough to stay rigid on delicate work.
