This Compression Bit combines both up-cut and down-cut flutes to deliver chip-free edges on the top and bottom surfaces of your workpiece. With a cutting size of 10mm × 35mm, it’s built for CNC routing, joinery and furniture production. By pulling and pushing chips toward the centre, it leaves crisp edges on plywood, MDF, solid timber and laminates. Key benefits Chip-free edges — up-cut and down-cut sections protect both faces for cleaner results. Nano coating reduces friction and heat build-up for extended tool life. 3-flute geometry for smoother walls, stable cutting and better accuracy. Ideal for CNC routing of wood, MDF, plywood, laminates and non-abrasive composites. Built for tougher runs in hardwoods, plywood and plastics where standard bits dull quickly. .atlas-spec-table-wrap { padding: 5px; margin: 30px 0 0; border: 1px solid #000; border-radius: 16px; overflow: hidden; background: #161616; box-shadow: inset 0px 1px 2px rgba(255,255,255,0.5), inset 0px 1px 2px rgba(255,255,255,0.5), 5px 8px 10px rgba(0,0,0,0.5), 0 0px 1px rgba(0,0,0,0.5); } .atlas-spec-table { width: 100%; border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0; border: 0; margin: 0; background: transparent; } .atlas-spec-table th { background: #dca101; color: #000000; text-align: left; padding: 14px 16px; font-size: 14px; font-weight: 800; } .atlas-spec-table th:first-child { border-top-left-radius: 12px; border-top-left-radius: 12px; border-right: 1px solid rgba(0,0,0,0.2); } .atlas-spec-table td { padding: 14px 16px; border-top: 1px solid rgba(255,255,255,0.08); } .atlas-spec-table td:first-child { width: 42%; border-right: 1px solid rgba(255,255,255,0.08); color: #f2f2f2; font-weight: bold; } .atlas-spec-table td:last-child { color: #d6d6d6; } .atlas-spec-table tbody tr:nth-child(odd) td { background: #1f1f1f; } .atlas-spec-table tbody tr:nth-child(even) td { background: #161616; } .atlas-spec-table th:first-child { border-top-left-radius: 12px; } .atlas-spec-table th:last-child { border-top-right-radius: 12px; } Spec Result Diameter 10mm Cut Length 35mm Shank (Collet Size) 10mm Overall Length 70mm Flutes 3 Coating Nano (NaCO) Nano coating for higher feed rates An advanced nano coating enhances heat resistance and lubricity, allowing higher feed rates while prolonging tool life. This makes the bit ideal for demanding production work in hardwoods, plywood and plastics. Lower friction = less heat build-up, cleaner cutting, and a more consistent finish across long runs. Versatility and benefits Thanks to its 3-flute geometry, this bit excels at dados, grooves, slots, mortises, and edge trimming. It’s a favourite among cabinetmakers, sign makers, and CNC hobbyists for cutting hardwoods, laminates, veneers and sheet goods, and it can be used on thin aluminium where suitable. Whether you’re creating pockets, trimming laminates, or nesting parts, this compression bit improves productivity and finish quality.
