Description


If you're looking for speed to rough out your CNC router projects, the long 1/4 roughing endmill CNC router bit is the one you want!!. We call it the 'HOG' here at IDC Woodcraft because it literally is a hog when it comes to removing material mind-blowingly fast from your CNC woodworking project.

With a whopping 3/4" depth of cut per pass,  80ipm plunge rate (yes, I said plunge rate), 80ipm feed rate, and 80% step-over, this bit kicks serious ass when it comes to getting material removed, so you can follow up with your finishing bit to finish your job off.

But it's not just a time thing. Making the roughing endmill CNC router bit your workhorse for major material removal on your CNC woodworking projects, you save a ton of wear and tear from your regular up-cut, down-cut, or compression router bits. You'll only use them to do the finishing work.

That alone extends the life of your bits significantly, saving you money for replacements. At $40-ish bucks a pop, the long 1/4 roughing endmill will 100% save you some cash. Especially when it comes to hardwood.

What is the long 1/4 roughing endmill bit good for?

Plainly put, the up-cutting long 1/4 roughing endmill bit is the CNC bit to use when you need to remove massive amounts of material!

It's not designed to make a pretty cut. It is designed for speed!

The Hoh

They certainly gave this router bit the right name. I keep feeding this hog and it just wants more. I am very pleased. I will order another one if this one ever wears out.

I can’t give an honest assessment as I’ve only used it once and i was clearing out epoxe. I had to slow it down to 40 ipm because it was chattering badly at higher feed rates. I was taking .120” per pass. I’m sure it will perform better in wood so I’m optimistic yet.

Live the hog

The first day I tried using the hog I broke the bit. It was totally my fault but up nail that point it had been cutting so exceptionally well that I immediately ordered a replacement. It’s that good!!
