  • Cuts well

  • Cut 300 3/8 holes in MDF on my CNC
Size: 1/4" Dia - 1-1/4" CL -1/4" Shank Style: UP CUT
and the bit lasted through the job. MDF is known for wearing out bits and this bit made it to the end. Not wanting to ruin an expensive American made bit on MDF, this cheap bit worked out. Not sure how much more it will cut (it was starting to burn the wood in the last few holes), so it may be toast. ... show more

  • Bits are fine - Boxes aren’t labeled.
Size: 1/16" Dia - 1/2" CL -1/4" Shank Style: DOWN CUT
Bits themselves are fine. The little plastic boxes/sleeves aren’t labeled - like every other vendor labels their bits.

  • Accurate, Clean Cuts
Size: 1/4" Dia - 1" CL -1/4" Shank Style: DOWN CUT
I got this spiral down cut bit mostly for dados/grooves in plywood. So far, with limited use, I'm pleased with it. Tear out in the plywood veneer is minimal, which is to be expected for a down cut bit. I get clean edges too without using a backer board. It works well. It is dimensionally accurate. The cutting speed is ok. Moving too fast yielded some tear out but it's on par with other bits. My only complaint is the lack of a label on the case but that's easy to solve with a label maker. As for the coating, time will tell. I haven't used it enough to really speak to the durability of the coating. Typically, I splurge on more expensive cutters but this is a great value, especially if it lives up to its claims for durability. ... show more

  • A Workhorse Downcut Bit That Earned Its Spot in My Rotation
Size: 1/4" Dia - 1" CL -1/4" Shank Style: DOWN CUT
When I first got into CNC routing, I was equal parts excited and overwhelmed. It’s not just cutting wood - it’s software, hardware, woodcraft, and electromechanical engineering all rolled into one, with a steep learning curve and plenty of opportunities to mess things up. My instructors told me, don’t go out and buy a massive kit of bits right away - start with the essentials and learn as you go. Naturally, I ignored that advice and did the exact opposite. Now, I’ve got a bunch of questionable bit choices rattling around in a drawer, collecting dust. But if there’s one thing I did figure out early, it’s that a 1/4” downcut spiral bit is an absolute go-to when you need a mix of material removal and clean edges. I didn’t pick up this BINSTAK TAC-coated version until recently, but I’ve used plenty of downcut bits before - so I knew what to expect. What I didn’t expect was just how much better this one would perform. ✅ Pros ✔ TAC coating noticeably improves performance – Runs cooler, reduces spindle strain, and extends bit life. ✔ 1” cutting length is perfect for 3/4” plywood – No second pass needed, keeps top edges crisp. ✔ Faster, more efficient cutting – A repeat job finished a full minute faster in a 12-minute window. ✔ More forgiving than a compression bit – No need for ultra-precise depth settings to get clean results. ✔ Solid build quality – Feels stiff and holds up under normal CNC workloads. ❌ Cons ❌ Too soon to judge long-term durability – Haven’t run it through a full lifespan test yet. ❌ Not for deep pocketing or aggressive material removal – Like all downcut bits, chip evacuation is limited in deeper cuts. Final Verdict: This One’s Staying in the Kit I haven’t put it through a torture test yet, but the early results are undeniably good. This bit runs cooler, reduces spindle strain, and maintains speed without sacrificing edge quality - all while being easier to work with than a compression bit. 📷 (See the photo below—this product is the one with the TAC coating, and you can clearly see the difference compared to another great bit. Both are brand new in the image.) 5 stars—this bit is officially in the rotation (so to speak). ... show more
