These Amana bits will produce clean, smooth cut edges in acrylic and other plastic materials.
Shank: 1/4"
Cut Length: 3/4"
Overall Length: 2"
Flute Type: Upcut
The bits are made according to strict tolerances from an exclusive high-quality carbide grade and polished to a mirror finish using Amana's unique process.
The upward spiral geometry will eject chips up out of the cut where they can be collected by a suitable extraction system.
Amana cutters are renowned for their quality and durability.
Use for: Profile cutting in all rigid plastics. Can also be used on woods, foams, and laminates

*Corrugated Plastics such as Correx refers to a wide range of extruded twinwall plastic-sheet products produced from high-impact Polypropylene resin with a similar make-up to corrugated fiberboard. They are used in a variety of applications including boat building packaging signage outdoor advertising and the production of pet cages.
**A soft plastic cardboard made with super soft super flexible PVC.
***Gatorfoam® Foam Board a polystyrene foam board bonded between two layers of Luxcell® wood-fiber veneer.
†Recommendation: Use the slowest suggested feed rates and the shortest bits necessary for cutting and routing Lexan™.
Benefits of Mirror-Finish:
Razor sharp cutting edge
Effortless chip removal
Helps prevent chip re-welding
Extends tool life
Exceptional cut quality
Dissipates heat well and
prevents melting
