60° Engraving V-Bit — The Middle Ground for Sign Work

Too fine and you lose visibility; too wide and you lose detail. The 60-degree angle on this engraving bit hits the sweet spot for sign lettering that needs to be both legible and detailed, on wood, acrylic, and metal.

Solid carbide construction holds a sharp point through long engraving runs.
