High Speed Steel Router Bits Open Box
Ultra-Shear is reversing a 50-year-old trend and introducing new High Speed Steel router bits…1/2" and 1/4" spirals in up-cut, down-cut and short up-cut mortising compression. It's a marriage that should have happened a long time ago. The grain structure of HSS allows it to take a sharper edge than carbide. In the '70s (when HSS dominated the router bit market) the spiral designs common today weren't readily available. With these new bits, woodworkers can experience the advantage of super sharp, high speed steel coupled with today's advanced cutting geometry. Maybe best of all, you get that pairing at a much lower price than the same bit in solid carbide.
American Made Quality at Factory Direct Pricing
Carbide took over based on tool life, not superior cut. And HSS metallurgy has improved substantially in the last 50 years. Given the skyrocketing cost of carbide these days, HSS tooling represents a solid value. For the custom furniture professional and the serious home woodworker, HSS delivers a superior cut in a bit that will complete years-worth of projects. (And they'll last even longer if you dial your router's speed down a little).
Ultra-Shear router bits are made right here in our Strongsville, Ohio, facility just south of Cleveland. Woodpeckers uses state-of-the-art CNC grinding equipment, the highest quality tool blanks and ultra-fine grinding wheels to produce American-made router bits at extremely competitive prices. We’re confident you won’t find American-made bits of the same design for less, but this week you can save even more on the High Speed Steel Spirals.
