Heavy-Duty Double Flute Upcut Router Bit for Aggressive Chip Evacuation and Deep Cuts in Wood, Plastics, and Aluminum in Canada.
The Snail Tools Solid Carbide 2 Flute Spiral End Mill is a powerful, large-diameter tool engineered for high-volume routing and deep slotting in a variety of materials. The standard upcut spiral geometry efficiently pulls chips upward and out of the cut zone, ensuring rapid chip evacuation and cooling—essential when machining deep slots or materials prone to melting or binding, such as aluminum, plastics, and dense wood.1 This cutter features matching 1/2 inch Cut Diameter and 1/2 inch Shank Diameter, providing maximum stability and strength over its 3.5 inch overall length. Constructed from Solid Carbide, this tool is ideal for demanding, heavy-duty CNC routing applications across Ontario and the GTA.2
