Solid carbide routing end mill

This solid carbide routing end mill is designed for CNC machining of MDF and wood. The downcut spiral geometry forces chips downward to produce a clean top surface on the workpiece. It is built for professional woodworkers and fabricators who need precise edge quality in sheet goods. The cutter diameter is 1/2 in with a cutting length of 1 1/8 in.

Users needing clean top edges in wood and MDF

This tool suits operators who prioritise a splinter-free upper face on panels and cabinet parts. It is not intended for metal cutting, plunge drilling or applications that require upward chip evacuation. Buyers who need a compression spiral or an upcut geometry for through-cuts should look at a different bit.

1/2 in cutter diameter with 1 1/8 in cutting length

The 1/2 in cutter diameter and 1 1/8 in cutting length determine whether this bit matches the required profile and depth of cut. Verify these dimensions against your toolpath and material thickness before purchase. The solid carbide construction provides wear resistance for extended use in abrasive wood composites.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 57-360 or another Onsrud routing end mill for MDF and wood?

The 57-360 is a solid carbide downcut spiral bit designed for MDF and wood. Its downcut geometry pushes chips downward for a clean top surface on through-cuts.

What does the downcut spiral do when the bit is in a router?

The downcut spiral forces chips toward the workpiece bottom, reducing tear-out on the top face and leaving a cleaner edge on MDF and wood.

What shank standard does the 57-360 use and what collet does it need?

The bit uses a standard 1/2 inch shank, so it fits any 1/2 inch router collet without an adapter.
