This 1-1/2 inch surfacing bit, designed for super-smooth cuts, is used in your CNC router to surface or flatten your CNC router spoilboard (also called a spoiler board, or waste board), as well as slab flattening, and prepping your CNC router project surfaces. The surfacing bit for CNC routers is a super-important bit to have.

The IDC Woodcraft 1.5 inch surfacing bit works with all brand CNC machines with a 1/4" collet.

What makes the 1-1/2" surfacing different? Typical surfacing bits for CNC routers are 1" diameter. They work fine. However, they do take longer to do your surfacing work. With the 1-1/2 inch surfacing bit, and a stepover of 90%, the surface work can be done in half the time, and you'll have a much smoother finish due to the broad cutting area.

What's more significant is the 4-flute design. Most surfacing bits only have three flutes. This allows for better finishes with faster cutting speeds. And more flutes means extended tool life, as well.

What is a 1.5″ surfacing bit used for?

Flattening your CNC router spoilboard, slab flattening and prepping project surfaces for super-smooth cuts.

Why choose it over a 1″ surfacing bit?

Typical surfacing bits are 1″ diameter and work fine, but they take longer. With the 1.5″ bit and a 90% stepover, IDC says surfacing can be done in half the time, with a smoother finish from the broad cutting area.

Why does the flute count matter?

This one has a 4-flute design, where most surfacing bits only have three. IDC says that allows better finishes at faster cutting speeds and extends tool life.

Will it work on my machine?

It works on all brands of CNC machines that take a 1/4″ collet.

What are its dimensions?

1.5″ cut diameter, 1/4″ shank and 4 flutes.
