Description
Downcut tools are used where the downshearing effect of the tool is preferred. This tool will : Produce a clean top edge cut of a dado type or groove type cut or simply a thru-cut where the bottom edge cut quality is unimportant. Direct chip flow downward. Help hold parts onto table or pods. When nest cutting the tool path remains packed with chips helping preserve maximum vacuum.
Important Note: Never plunge straight down with downcut tooling. This may cause fire or tool breakage.
