ROUGHING DOWNCUT, Z=2 RSC DESIGN: • Clean but uneven surface finish is produced by the aggressive scalloped cutting edge design, otherwise known as “Knuckles” • Knuckles reduce cutting pressure by creating multiple cuts or chips along a single cutting edge • Good chipflow and lower heat retention in solid wood are provided by the 2 flute design with Knuckles • Fast feed rates in solid wood are possible due to the 2 precision ground scalloped cutting edges • Special submicron, corrosion resistant, extended life carbide provides increased cutting edge durability and resistance to resin build-up when cutting solid wood and materials of inconsistent density • 30° Helix design with plunging capability APPLICATION: • Knuckles reduce cutting pressure and produce smaller chips that in turn improve chipflow, allowing for higher feed rates and increased tool life in hard materials, solid wood and material hogging applications • Commonly used for rebates, dadoes/grooving and pocketing operations on raw panels, plywood and solid wood • Increased cutting edge life when frequently accelerating/decelerating or performing multiple passes such as “Onion skinning” • Downward cutting action helps hold down material
