1/2" Dia, Carbide Tipped, Double Edge V-Groove Bit, 1/2" Shank, 2" Length

This ultimate carbide-tipped double edge folding V Groove is recommended for shaping Aluminum Composite Materials (ACM) such as Alucobond®, Dibond®, and other brands alike. Designed for scoring 90° angle (with flat bottoms) and rectangular grooves on the following aluminum/plastic composite materials:

• Aluminum, Clay, Zinc & Wood Composite Panels
• Aluminum Composite Materials (ACM)
• Aluminum Composite Panel (ACP)* 
• ALPOLIC® Copper Composite Material (CCM)
• Alucobond®
• Alupanel®
• Dibond®
• Durabond
• e-panel™
• Etalbond®
• Phenolics
• Plastic/Acrylic
• Plexiglas®
• Titanium Composite

These bits are widely used as cladding for many diverse applications such as office buildings, hospitals, convention centers, airports, and hotels. ACM panels may be used both indoors and outdoors. Routing V-shaped grooves, whereby the aluminum cover and a part of the polyethylene core are removed, allow folding/creasing of the remaining material by hand. Specially designed router bits are used to route V-grooves in the above materials to allow easy bending without cracking the bent area. Route within 0.8mm from the bottom of the composite panel to achieve a clean bend/radius. Routing V-shaped grooves, whereby the aluminum cover and a part of the polyethylene core are removed, allow folding of the remaining material by hand. Ideal for wall panel fabrication.
