Reviews

The 1/4" down-cutting bit (a.k.a. down bit, down cut bit, downcut bit) is the workhorse of CNC router bits! You will almost always make this the first on your machine. Why?

2 reasons...

  1. The 1/4" down bit removes the bulk of the material in pockets and around letters.
  2. It does all the cutout work for finished projects.

A third reason is, most CNC routers are set up for 1/4" bits, so it is the reasonable go-to for your work. This is why it is standard practice to have two 1/4" down-cutting router bits in the rack.

For these reasons, you want to make sure your 1/4" down cutter is made right & built to last. That's why these are made above industry standards and 100% tungsten carbide.

Carbide is what professional metal machinists use to make complex items like car engines. It stays sharp 50x longer than conventional CNC router bits.

Order your workhorse 1/4" down-cut bits today.

90 day guarantee

Thank you for the replacement of my 1/4” Dc EM
As Avery new Hobbiest, I knew this journey would eventually lead to a broken bit, and the 90 day guarantee From IDC was something I needed to take advantage of within the 1st month.
Thank you for the smooth and seamless process to replace my broken bit.
As a hobbyist, I may never be your biggest customer, however for a company to stand behind their product like that, I will always be a loyal one

QUICK SERVICE AND WORKING WITH BIT

HAVE ENJOYED WORKING WITH DIFFERENT BITS AND LEARNING THE VERTIC PPOGRAM WATCHING SEVERAL OF YOUR VIDEOS ON YOUTUBE. LEFT A MESSAGE ON YOUR MACHINE ABOUT A QUESTION I HAD ON A BIT, BUT ENDED UP FINDING THE ANSWER. THANKS FOR ALL THE VIDEOS POSTED AND KEEP IT GOING.

Not yet!

Since I am just starting out, I bent the surfacing bit while making my wasteboard. So I will not get a chance to use any bits until you replace the surfacing bit

Initial bit order

IDC has the best service of any company i have ever dealt with. Unfortunately I can't rate the bis yet because my Altmill is arriving one piece at a time, hopefully I will have a complete machine next week. I am ready to start.
