Standard. These single edge spiral tools are designed for routing wood and wood composites where aggressive upward chip removal is necessary in hand-fed or CNC applications.

Tool rigidity, long life, and high quality finish are also characteristic of these tools.

Primary Usage: Wood and wood composites.

Secondary Usage: Plastics.

Metric. These carbide tools were developed to replace high speed steel spirals when the material cut is too abrasive for steel or when the feed rates are too high for steel. They are often used in slotting or blind routing situations.

Usage: Hardwoods or abrasives composites.
