Forest City Tool router bits are precision micro-ground to create the truests running shanks with concentricity of +.000"/-.001" total indicator run-out. That means wobble and chatter are virtually eliminated, making for smooth, sure cutting. Shanks are triple tempered for increased durability.
Tips are specially tooled for fast cutting and quick feeding. Cutting edges are diamond honed for smooth cuts, and radical relief reduces friction by making sure that only the cutting edge comes in contact with the work. High hook and steep shear angles clear away chips fast and cutting diameters are precision ground for greater accuracy and balance.
Three types of Standard Bits:
Carbide-Tipped
Solid Carbide
High Speed Steel
Tungsten carbide provides superior durability under industrial conditions for the longest life available in a router bit. Carbide bits sometimes produce a finish so smooth that sanding is unnecessary.
High speed steel bits are moderately-priced yet maintain a sharp, precision ground edge for consistenly smooth cutting.
