Supplier's note

  1. Technical Breakthroughs:

    • TCT Carbide Core: Outperforms HSS tools by 30% in heat resistance, enabling prolonged use in dense materials like hardwood.
    • Double-Layer TiAlN (Advanced/Pro): Reduces wear by 40% compared to single-layer coatings, extending tool life in abrasive applications.
    • 4-Flute Geometry (Pro): Achieves 25% smoother surface finishes in precision cuts, ideal for decorative paneling or furniture detailing.
  2. Version Selection Guide:

    • Base Model: Best for hobbyists or small workshops prioritizing cost-effectiveness for general MDF/wood cutting.
    • Advanced Model: Suited for mid-scale production requiring higher RPM tolerance and dual shank compatibility for varied CNC setups.
    • Pro Model: Tailored for industrial users demanding extreme durability (e.g., cutting particleboard composites) and ultra-precise cuts via 4-flute design.

With the Pro’s DLC coating, you can safely machine abrasive materials like fiber-reinforced plastics, while its 1/2" shank ensures stability in heavy-duty applications. Pair the Advanced model’s double-layer coating with its 22,000 RPM capacity to achieve 20% faster production cycles than traditional carbide bits.
